This is a great album from Radiohead, in the continuity of the work started with OK Computer and their move from more traditional/mainstream rock to experimental rock/electronica. Not their best IMHO, maybe a bit too low key, somehow less catchy than Kid A (from the same recording sessions) but still great.
Releasing an album of lost tracks and offcuts just seven months after the previous hit Kid-A was a risky move. However this album of experimental electronica and down tempo lo-fi beats just about pulls it off. I’m still not the greatest fan of Thom Yorke’s voice, but it works better here than on some of their rockier tracks. The highlight is Life in a Glasshouse featuring the trumpet of the late, great Humphrey Littleton. I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue-tastic!
