The truth is, I was REALLY excited about they reunion and about the new album, I've been a fan since 2003. But I was waiting more at a first listen!

And I have to say that took 4 or 5 spins to the albums 'growns on me'!

I mean, isn't a bad album at first glance, at all, but I was waiting for it to blown my head apart, specially after 7 years, and after Red Light Fever (Hot Leg album). But it goes and goes and in the end is a very good album.

By the way, there's a good and totally unexpected Radiohead version here, from their classic album The Bends, talking about 'Street Spirit (Fade Out).
