RADIOHEAD - THE KING OF LIMBS (LP)

Radiohead The King Of Limbs on LP

British Superstars Return With First New Album Since In Rainbows

Loose, Unhinged, and Full of Grooves That Suggest Dance and Dub

Atmospheric, Abstract, Shimmying: Songs As Ear-Awakening Collages

Radiohead's highly anticipated eighth album, The King Of Limbs follows-up the artistic provocateurs' 7-time Grammy nominated 2007 release In Rainbows. The eight song collection was produced by longtime collaborator, Nigel Godrich and is arguably the most groove-oriented set of Radiohead's restless career.

King Of Limbs was named in honor of one of Great Britain's oldest trees. Nicknamed 'Big Belly Oak' and located in the 4,000-acre Savernake Forest in Wiltshire, England, the tree is estimated to be around 1,000 years old and has a girth of over 36 feet. The album was recorded in a country home less than three miles from Big Belly.

"It is an album of spaciousness and claustrophobia, possibility and inhibition… Radiohead treats the tracks like cavernous canvasses, careful not to fill in too much: percussion skitters and darts, voices reverberate in vast empty spaces, keyboards hover, bass and guitars play abstract patterns against one another, Yorke’s voice stretches delicate melodies."
