Radiohead fans’ patience rewarded

It’s easy to give in and follow these songs to the end; the challenge is to follow their implicit example and take as much time as you need.

the jury is still out on The King of Limbs and that’s because there’s always something more to Radiohead

that’s the beauty of Radiohead – they’ve never, certainly not since the breakthrough days of Creep, been a band for the people

While The King Of Limbs always sounds great, the actual songs prove elusive—perhaps too elusive at times.

Radiohead are musicians capable of emotion at the rawest base and somehow binding it to melody and lyric

t's hard not to wonder if it would be received as well as it has been had it come under the imprimatur of, say, a band releasing its second or third album

it is very unsurprising in its lack of impact since the band has never in their career released three epic albums in a row

Radiohead’s Rhythmic Zen

If nothing else, Radiohead have become masters of nuance, and we can’t help but remain fascinated.

a subtle, muti-layered affair - surprisingly low-key in places, and it certainly won't win back any fans who checked out in the late '90s

It’s still Radiohead (even when it’s verging on Thom Yorke) and it’s still worth your while; just don’t expect anything groundbreaking

If the artists were an unknown band, we’d call it a promising effort that needs a lot of polishing.
