The king of limbs vinyl review.
See my video review here for a closer look at the 12 vinyl version of the record.
Listen to the music and revisit it as much as possible.
The album cover is very very flimsy giving this a cheap feel.
Hopefully the 2016 remasters have better packaging.
However the packaging makes me very sad.
Eight tracks each of them worth your time and yet the king of limbs is still likely to go down as.
In short if you like post ok computer radiohead you will enjoy listening to this record.
My only complain is that the album is too short.
As you can see from the other reviews there is basically a consensus that this is a fantastic album.
The king of limbs sounds like it was phoned in by disinterested distracted musicians whose last truly great album turns out to have been hail to the thief.
Rhythm texture atmosphere are great ways to describe the king of limbs.
Radiohead music is dense and can take sometime to grow on you.
The atmosphere of the king of limbs should not surprise anyone because it sounds like a natural progression of the music of in rainbows and the eraser thom yorke s amazing solo album make sure to listen to and it rained all night and harrowdown hill for a while if you are not hooked on them yet.
It s solo thom yorke gyrating every part of his body to the complex rhythms in the black and white video to the king of limbs track lotus flower while singing i will shape myself into your pocket invisible do what you want do what you want the entire album king of limbs is on youtube live on from the basement.

The vinyl itself is very clean and i can t find anything wrong with the audio quality.
This is a sophisticated and highly evolved album that will only appease listeners on the same frequency.
It s a nice packing trick one that makes the album feel even lighter than its 37 minutes.
