The Radiohead mainspring’s debut offers very few surprises. Which is pretty, er, surprising... Anyone got a link to listen to it?

I might be ever so slightly biased, but I'm loving this! There's a andful of tracks that havnt particulary gripped me just yet, particulary Atoms For Peace and The Clock, but when it's good, it's REALLY good.

Of the nine tracks on offer I've probably got four of them into my head.

Harrowdown Hill is probably the most immediate
Analyse has a very catchy almost nursery rhyme melody to it and could almost be a *gasp* single
I also love the bizarre piano plonking on Eraser
I have to disagree with the reviewer about Black Swan. It's a great wee tune, just not the sort of song you can play in front of the kids

Anyone heard the Harrowdown Hill b-sides?

The Drunkk Machine is a touch disappointing. Far too slow for the first two thirds.

The extended version of Harrowdown Hill is cracking though. Jetstream is pretty good too.

Who said Radiohead were depressing? ;-)
