In Rainbows (LP)

With In Rainbows Radiohead may well have created their own physical graffiti. Drawn from over 10 years of sketches, outtakes and live renditions that finally get nailed, its a veritable summation of everything you love about them - from rhythmically challenging jazz funk prog to droning repetitive exhumations of the socio political conscience (rock n roll). Its the true heir to OK Computer. Beginning with some of that familiar warp inspired glitchiness, opener, 15 steps childrens voices and odd meter clapping is astoundingly uplifting. Bodysnatchers is the kind of crunchy guitar rock that we'd all given up hope that they'd ever record again and weird fishes/ arpeggi takes Johnny Greenwoods orchestral piece and turns it into a chiming thing of post rock wonder.
