Reckoner

Melissa W, Monday, 5 November 2007 22:29 (eighteen years ago)

this album blows.

J0rdan S., Monday, 5 November 2007 22:30 (eighteen years ago)

but i don't like radiohead so whatever. i'd vote bodysnatchers tho.

"House of Cards" best all-around fall listening, "Bodysnatchers" and "Jigsaw Falling Into Place" best bicycle ridin' jams.

nickalicious, Monday, 5 November 2007 23:05 (eighteen years ago)

I can't narrow it down to one. I can narrow it down to three: House of Cards, Body Snatchers, All I Need

15 Step or Jigsaw

lukas, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 00:08 (eighteen years ago)

"Reckoner" forevah.

CaptainLorax, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 19:06 (eighteen years ago)

15 step, Nude

Mark Clemente, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 19:07 (eighteen years ago)

It says something about how great this album is that everybody's listing different tracks.

For me: Nude, Videotape, Arpeggi, annnnnnnnnd All I Need plz

three handclaps, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

"15 Step", what a phantastic mercurial opener. After that, not much. Finishing with "Videotape", a ballad I never want to listen to again in my life. It sounds like a sucked out chewing gum.

alex in mainhattan, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 22:01 (eighteen years ago)

i'm waiting till my next paycheck to pick this one up, so i havent heard it yet.

Davey D, Tuesday, 6 November 2007 22:21 (eighteen years ago)

House Of Cards. That song is gorgeous.

Sam, Wednesday, 7 November 2007 00:30 (eighteen years ago)

"Nude", "Reckoner", "Jigsaw".

but really I like them all except for "Faust Arp". Liked it on first listen but quickly got very bored of it.

Roz, Wednesday, 7 November 2007 00:51 (eighteen years ago)

I think Jigsaw Falling into Place may be my least favorite now. The only real thing I love about the song is Thom's hop up to a higher register a little bit into the second verse.

Z S, Wednesday, 7 November 2007 02:28 (eighteen years ago)

alex in mainhattan,

Yeah, I agree that Videotape is not so great, but I do think the song improved vastly with the added percussion. The only song I skip on this album is "House of Cards." Where is the love for Faust Arp?

Turangalila, Wednesday, 7 November 2007 02:47 (eighteen years ago)

"All I Need"

global tetrahedron, Friday, 6 March 2015 05:18 (ten years ago)

Faust Arp is probably my favourite track now, although it was Weird Fishes for ages

Dr X O'Skeleton, Friday, 6 March 2015 13:25 (ten years ago)

Nude makes this album. Everything else hangs around it.

Unheimlich Manouevre (dog latin), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:16 (ten years ago)

rubbish, boring album, maybe their most boring album

vacuum head tree disease (imago), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:29 (ten years ago)

inb4 no way sna

The run from Nude to House of Cards is so phenomenal.

the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:46 (ten years ago)

my lil bro reps for Jigsaw

Unheimlich Manouevre (dog latin), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:48 (ten years ago)

The last two tracks are my least favourites by far.

I find Videotape very boring.

the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:49 (ten years ago)

yeah, it's a nonsense. jigsaw has some nice arpeggios and a cool build up.

said brother played me a nice acoustic version of the song Kid A on guitar the other day. I was impressed because I'd never even really thought of it as a proper song you could play on guitar.

Unheimlich Manouevre (dog latin), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:52 (ten years ago)

jigsaw has some nice arpeggios and a cool build up.

It does. The atmosphere feels very thin compared to what has come before, though.

the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Friday, 6 March 2015 15:16 (ten years ago)

yeah, it doesn't quite achieve the 'oomph' factor it's after.

Unheimlich Manouevre (dog latin), Friday, 6 March 2015 15:24 (ten years ago)

Thom's voice sounds unusually reedy and strained in the big climax.

The last two tracks are my least favourites by far.

yea me too

jigsaw does have some nice arpeggios but weird fishes' are better imo

marcos, Friday, 6 March 2015 15:32 (ten years ago)

probably the radiohead album i most feel like listening to nowadays

marcos, Friday, 6 March 2015 15:33 (ten years ago)

yes, definitely. it's their most 'mellow' of their later era and the easiest to listen to.

Come to think of it, this album is pretty much founded on a fixation with arpeggios.
