In Rotation 1 : Radiohead - The King of Limbs

As you may have heard, Radiohead released their eighth album this past week.  A stylistic departure from the previous In Rainbows and Hail to the Thief albums, The King of Limbs harkens back to their Kid A style.  Heavily layered with multiple sound clips and electronic beats, and yet there is still room for the use of a gentle piano and acoustical guitar.  Comprised of 8 tracks and running just under 38 minutes, one could note that it is just not long enough.  I would agree, however if left on repeat each song has so much musical depth there is constantly a new bit that you are to discover.

Notable Tracks:
3. Little by Little
5. Lotus Flower
6. Codex
7. Give Up the Ghost
