This is so different than their last album. I would characterize it something of a return to the Kid A era, but definitely more sophisticated.A little background: The English four piece was formed in 1988 while they were all students at Oxford University. They released several singles and EPs and finally released their first full length in '93. They have three albums on Rollingstone Magazine's 500 Greatest Albums list (the Bends, OK Computer and Kid A.)
Early reviewers compared their sound to U2 and on a couple songs Thom Yorke sounds so much like Bono it's eerie, especially Morning Mr Magpie.
My favorite Song on the album is Little By Little. there's more great than merely good here; but there isn't' anything that absolutely blows me away.
