From what I remember... (this was in August), it was in the encore.

Amazing.

one of my favourite albums in years by any band, im glad they stayed true to their original sound and came out with an amazing piece of work.

15 STEP. Not your generic Radiohead song, which is why I liked it. No! I;m not saying that I don't like Radiohead, I'm just saying that it's fun listening to them experiencing in a "happier" sound.

BODYSNATCHERS. So energetic and fun! Like the song above, I'm not quite sure if I would've thought that it could've come out of them before I've heard this song, but it has indeed taken my heart :P

NUDE. Wow. I've heard this song before, and like the first time I was listening to In Rainbows I was blown away. There aren't many songs that I rather listen to in an album version than in a live version, but this is definitely one of the few. What they've done with the song before putting it in the album is just fantastic!

WEIRD FISHES/APREGGI. Meh, I don't like this song that much, I don't know why...

ALL I NEED. Amazing song, it's a weird love song, but... Not bad weird - alas, weird. Lol, you'll have to listen to it in order to understand.

FAUST ARP. Not among my faves, but sti... As I'm writing this Street Spirit just came on the radio. Scary. I'm just gonna take that as a sign to move onto the next song

RECKONER. Nice guitar, nice drums, nice song. May be many people's favorite song - not mine.

HOUSE OF CARDS. One of my favorite Radiohead songs, ever. I love the rhythm and basically everything about this song.

JIGSAW FALLING INTO PLACE. My favorite song in the album, and among my all-time favorite songs, it's just... Amazing. It makes me want to dance and make love to the world, all at the same time.

VIDEOTAPE. Videotape is like that nice cup of tea at the end of a long, hard day at work. Its relaxing piano and melody is just... Great! I like my metaphore, I shouldn't have added anything to it

For the concept (which I'm sure will be imitated slavishly) of releasing mp3's for download and bypassing the music industry, Radiohead are geniuses but that's been talked to death already by everyone so let's focus on the album. "In Rainbows" with its glitchcore/hiphop backings to its quasi anthemic songs is certainly a return to the sound of "Kid A" though nowhere near the wild experimentation of it. However, "In Rainbows" is certainly a more focused album than the great but uneven "Hail to the Thief" and thus could be entitled a return to form. Is is stylistically groundbreaking? No. Is it the first purchase you'd make if you are new to Radiohead? No but you probably own "Ok Computer" and "Kid A" already and want to hear their new album so buy it anyway. From what I can see Radiohead are not going to be breaking any trends musically from now (conceptually with marketing yes but as I said that's been discussed) so as a fellow reviewer of mine (give credit where its do)has implied with each new Sonic Youth album, you know you're a getting a Sonic Youth album (though there is certainly more stylistic variation in their recent albums than Radiohead) but you're getting a solid product musically. The same is true for "In Rainbows". If you've heard their previous albums, don't expect anything dramatic or new (for Radiohead that is) but expect a quality album, eminently listenable. Enough said.
