Beatles
5/5
This was a good palette cleanser after the album I got yesterday (Limp Bizkit's CSatHFW). This album includes one of my fave if not the fave song from The Beatles, While My Guitar Gently Weeps. That opening bass gets me every time. So many great songs on this, and a Beatles record I think I could listen to anytime, anywhere.

5/5
All the hallmarks of a Radiohead album that you come to expect, with no filler or fluff.

I liked the music, but the singing was just hard to get past on the first listen. On the second listen I was more okay with it, but still not past it.

Their fourth album, but the first of theirs that I ever heard. And probably my favorite of their albums. Having said that, the horns near the tail end of City of Delusion feels very random when they come up. It reminded me of Led Zeppelins Fool in the Rain with the samba break in the middle of it. But then once you get Knights of Cydonia it seems like they were starting to go for a spaghetti western theme, but only for the last quarter of the album? Not entirely sure. Still a solid album.
