Thom Yorke's new CD

I can't believe I'm beating Wrtickle and The Kid to the punch but has anybody bought this CD yet? I picked it up today. It sounds like older stuff from Kid A, a few tunes stick out as being well done..."Analyse" "Black Swan" and I personally think "Atom's for Peace" are the best tracks. Atom's for Peace is a dead ringer for a Radiohead Kid-A tune. The actual sound quality of the disc is quite impressive as well.

Nigel Godrich was instrumental (pun intended) in the sound of this album. It should sound great. I preordered it but no delivery today, hopefully tomorrow.

The samples I've heard sound quite Amnesiac-like. Allmusic loved it.

Good to hear it lives up to Radiohead's previous work. I'll have to pick up a copy. Amazon has it for $9.99 currently. I rarely get to see music videos but among those I have seen one of theirs is of the most memorable (the song, "Just", from The Bends).

Howard (Boa2) turned me on to another recent release I've been enjoying: Grant-Lee Phillips, "Nineteeneighties", which consists of some great covers from that decade, largely toned down from their original productions.

I just picked up my LP today from Tower Records. Put it on for casual check and indeed it is coherently great music. I also plan to get a CD, which is $9.99 at Tower. Thom York's voice makes it all more than worthwhile.
