Radiohead - In Polka (2023)

Over the past 40 years Radiohead have shown themselves to be masters of any genre they put their hand at whether it be rock , electronica , minimalism , reggae or death metal. So as you can imagine I was really excited when I discovered for this their 16th album they were going to enter the world of polka.
As you can imagine because it's Radiohead that automatically means that this album is better than any polka album that came before it and will probably never be bettered. All in all this is the best polka album ever made.

Favourite Songs - Fake Plastic Trombones , Pension Music (For A Cardigan) & OK Stairlift

Post of the year

I'm surprised there was no mention of Pacific Ocean Blue by Dennis Wilson.

Never heard it , I'm not that big on the Beach Boys , let alone their solo stuff.

I know Primal Scream covered a song off that album on their Dixie Narco EP.

In Polka was easily the best album of 2023 dude, I'm totally with you.

Well you're in luck! They just reissued it in a 2 disc 'deluxe edition'. The second disc contains unreleased tracks from that session plus a new session that was never completed, due to drowning..

I really am quite shocked to the fact that there is completely NO mention of his solo effort throughout the entire forums. As well as the album.

"...which has been praised by the likes of Primal Scream and Super Furry Animals..."

There seem to be one or two Super Furry Animals fans at these boards. Primal Scream as well. They should listen to them.

To be utterly brutal, and I am generally not prone to be overly critical and can generally find good in most music that I hear, Pacific Ocean Blue by Dennis Wilson is the most ordinary record that I have heard this year. After reading the hype I D/loaded and was to say the least under whelmed. The use of the term Classic leaves me wondering if the press are just praising this because it is a Beach Boy. If an unknown band had thrown that up it would have been but a footnote in the history of the Obscuro genre and that is where Pacific Ocean Blue belongs. To me it sounds like Rumours out-takes at their very worst.

Dennis Wilson wasn't exactly the most talented person on earth... It's little wonder not that many people are interested.

Even if you aren't a fan of the Beach Boys, you should give it a listen. As a piece of music, superb.
