Maybe I was expecting to be horrible due to all the comments, but I actually didn't mind it.

that makes no sense. Also why do people think that Yorke's direction indicates Radiohead's? The Eraser (which I love btw) came out in 2006, In Rainbows came out in 2007 and they sound almost nothing alike.
After TKoL, I really wasn't expecting this to be good at all... but, I have to say, it is infinitely better than The Eraser.
That being said, it appears general opinion on Radiohead is falling fast... does this mean Arcade Fire are finally the greatest band of the moment? Speaking of that, I've been MIA for quite a while (my most sincere apologies, GARY, I know you missed me dearly)... has it been noted yet that Funeral has passed VU&N on the chart yet? _________________ kill yr idols

Making stuff that won't sell, which sells when the pitchfork hears that it doesn't sell and it becomes highly acclaimed and they get critical praise the same way and 80's hair metal band went for the money.
The Kings of Limbs does sound like Radiohead treding water but this does seem more... creative? Or is it smoke and mirrors? I'm not sure. Maybe my analogy is wrong

Does not make sense... You don't make sense. This song isn't even Radiohead
Anyways I loved TKoL but I didn't like this song. But there wouldn't be so many negative comments if it was just "some guy", and not Thom Yorke, I'm sure of that. (Then again, I'm sure that for the same reason some people will like it that otherwise wouldn't or at least wouldn't care for it)
