First Reaction: Radiohead - A Moon Shaped Pool

[@rpineda8373]

If you look at it chronologically, all the experience they gathered during those almost 30 years together comes together in this album, is like, in my opinion perfect, they really are masters of the craft.

Love that

The first word on this album is "stay", the last word is "leave" I always thought that was very clever

[@rjisasavage]

I didn’t even notice

[@aldo34]

Don't sleep on King Of Limbs...don't listen to the haters, it's great.

[@rjisasavage]

I’ll have to check it out

[@MajorTomTom]

Check out king of limbs live from the basement - better than the album

[@aldo34]

@@MajorTomTom it is really good. Plus they throw in The Daily Mail and Staircase, which are not on the album and are also excellent tracks.

[@rjisasavage]

@@MajorTomTom It seems this way for all the live from the basement shows

[@Ilikemychickenraw]

it's they're second worst for sure after Pablo honey which is not very good album

[@aldo34]

Really is up there with their best this one. Main thing I take from this album...strings. Lots of lovely orchestration. And a reflective sadness on the passing of time, but also acceptance. It's quite a gentle album, but very subtle and emotionally very moving. Slow burner, really rewards repeated listening.

[@rjisasavage]

That’s what I’ve realized just in editing it. As I was, I was like, why do I like this even more?

[@themadcow71]

You got to listen to The Bends. It's before OK Computer and is another 10/10 classic.

[@rjisasavage]

@@themadcow71 that’s the one that has Creep right? I’d love to listen

[@themadcow71]

@@rjisasavage no it's the one after that album. It only gets overshadowed by OK Computer because that's an 11/10

[@rjisasavage]

@@themadcow71 Ok Computer is so good, I'll have to check it out!

[@S-jq1yk]

I don’t even think of Pablo honey and the bends as the same band anymore, they’ve progressed so far from those records now

[@jameshannagan4256]

@@S-jq1yk The Bends is still a great rock album with some great songwriting as well.

[@normanshoulda4749]

100% Ful Stop is the "we chasing Batman" song. You really get the cartoony ideas at the basis of the songwriting.

[@rjisasavage]

@@normanshoulda4749 literally!

[@jamesxboxgaming]

If you are thinking unique perhaps you should listen to king of limbs, its right after in rainbows and right before a moon shaped pool. Its not the most popular. But i listen to it the most out of any of their albums. But another great reaction it was worth the wait!. Also thom yorke and jonny greenwood two of the member from radiohead have a band called the smile I've requested it before but.. they have a new album coming out on October 4th and i need a reaction to them! 😂

[@rjisasavage]

Oooo. Maybe I’ll do a reaction to the album on the 4th so I’m catching something new! Thank you for watching and definitely want to dive into more

[@SR91313]

I was coming to say the same thing. TKOL doesn't get enough love, and i think it's a damn good album. Maybe not quite on the level of the big 3, but it certainly has a lot of moments and whole songs that could have been on any of those other albums. But it's JMO, dont shoot me! lol

[@lk-music]

@@SR91313 Yeah some just think it's just sequenced loops and drum machines, but the live versions (especially From The Basement) show that no, these are legitimately intricate musical pieces... ...also Codex is just as beautiful as Nude or How To Disappear Completely, overlook TKOL and you are seriously missing out.

[@emerge3396]

Really underrated Radiohead album. It gets praise but not as much as Kid A and OK Computer even though it’s close to that level imo

[@rjisasavage]

@@emerge3396 it’s surprisingly monumental to me

[@jameshannagan4256]

@@rjisasavage It is probably their most cinematic album but it's also very sad, even for them.

[@liverbot4854]

It may not be their best album, but it’s my favourite. It’s like all the good things from each previous album were used to compile a modern masterpiece.

[@jameshannagan4256]

@@liverbot4854 I'm not a good person to judge anything about them, I actually think almost every track is brilliant and even the handful of songs I don't love I can appreciate find interesting things and ideas.

[@liverbot4854]

@@jameshannagan4256 Same. With all previous albums there were always a couple of songs I knew I wouldn’t add to my playlist but settled in later. With AMSP, I connected with every song on the 1st listen which has never happened before or after.

[@davidlukey5189]

I wasn't that fussed by The Numbers first time I heard it, but then with every listen it grew... and grew... and grew.....

[@rjisasavage]

@@davidlukey5189 it’s already for me

[@SR91313]

It's probably one of my favorite, top ten RH songs. Especially after seeing Thom and Jonny and a CR-78 where they do both "the Numbers" and "Present Tense" while sitting outside in just about the most picturesque setting you could imagine. Imagine walking up and finding that out in the wild. lol

[@fohatenchou]

lmao I love the energy man! great reaction when you began to sing your reaction it killed me

[@rjisasavage]

@@fohatenchou thank you!

[@rachelcopeland5186]

The history behind True Love Waits is wild... written decades ago, occasionally played on tour, never committed to an album until their ninth studio album, after Thom and his late wife separated amicably, with her dying of cancer soon after that. This final version of the song made me SOB the first time I heard it.

Yeah you should definitely do The Bends next. It's more rock ish since it was their 2nd album in 1995 but it is amazing none the less. The notes hit are euphoric. It's got upbeat and sad songs both. Definitely will be looking forward if you do it

you should really listen to the album Carousel by Vylet Pony. it starts off pretty upbeat, but i promise you'll be crying by the end. oh, also, fun fact, radiohead were working on True Love Waits for almost 21 years.
