I deleted it from my tracklisting, because I don't like how it cleaves the album in half.

TKOL is way more consistent than OKC to me. After Karma Police it kinda goes downhill.

I would never say they are too old, because their set at 'roo was amazing, but I wish they would put something out that continues to break rules instead of staying in the rut they appeared to have fallen into.
Break rules?

I don't think so. I personally find Climbing Up the Walls a fantastic song and the 3 songs that follow all are quite calming.

Now that I'm at OKC anyways, I'll just say this: I find Let Down absolutely boring. I've tried to like it but to me it's just a Radiohead song that drags on to nothing for 5 minutes before switching to Karma Police.

Really? I've always found Let Down to be probably the best melody on OKC and just a beautiful melancholy song.

It's quite melancholic and I could've liked if it would be going anywhere but it doesn't. I just find it to be boring, there's no real progress made throughout the song to keep it interesting, to me it's just there. I see many people liking it a lot but it never did anything to me. Any of the last 3 songs and Exit Music (For A Film) are better in moving me or giving me any feeling, Let Down is just... Well, a letdown.

I almost agree, but it's kind of an unfair statement since The King Of Limbs is only 8 tracks while OK Computer is 12. The King Of Limbs is fantastic all the way until Separator, which I find to be a mediocre track. I'd actually say Separator is worse than anything on OK Computer, save for Fitter Happier.
