Just got King of Limbs - like it pretty much.

Damn, that really does suck. I can't believe that is it.

Completely agree. Radiohead are hands down, my favourite band ever. I was gutted when I heard King of Limbs, though I'm still really hoping it's a 'grower'.

King of limbs: like waiting for a bicycle on christmas morning and waking up to a jigsaw. I think Radiohead fans need to face facts; they're never going to make albums like they used to again.

KoL is far from a favorite, but to dismiss that they can't be great again is short-sighted.

just look at their track record.

Radiohead doing dubstep? I love it.

It's no Kid A (or even an Amnesiac) but then again, what is?

Their track record is that since Kid A they have been - at best - average.

Hmmm The King Of Limbs hasn't really grown on me the way I thought it would. It does seem to be missing that extra magic touch that made OK Computer, Kid A and even In Rainbows great albums. It does seem very incomplete and I was really hoping that there would be a part two. It really feels like they've left us short but maybe they did that on purpose so that we'll want more.

well, Amnesiac is my favorite album, HTTT is great, and so is In Rainbows.

so I'm not sure we can agree on much.

[Paedantic Basterd]

I definitely think it's unfair to say that they've lost "it", because I thought In Rainbows was a great album, even if it wasn't stellar, and for a band to still be making great albums after they've made phenomenal ones is still a mighty feat.
