The Monday After The Weekend Before

Massive Monday downer. So what better way to wake up the week than with a spot of Radiohead? Not since its release have I listened to 'Amnesiac'. Not all the way through, certainly. Just over halfway through, I've got to say it makes a lot more sense post 'In Rainbows'. And a much more listenable listen. Still way ahead of their time. It's as if the albums were released in the wrong order. If you've not been there, since, do go now. I think you'll be filled with wonky-eyed surprised.

They're clever monkeys those Oxfordshire boys in Radiohead. We've just lapped up the sublime 'Harry Patch (In Memory Of)'. Then there's a whole storm of press around them not releasing an album for a long time. Indeed if again, ever. And then, as if by magic, comes a new track. Leaked by the band themselves through encrypted messages on message boards. These Are My Twisted Words is it.
