Fucking killer. Liked even more the second time, eyes closed without the cool but distracting imagery.

Fuck i swear im not trying to be at the top of every page

Not in love but that's a pretty good song. Beautiful string arrangement.

Witch themes can't help but remind me of Liars' criminally underrated second album though

Jarlaxle · May 3, 2016

I immediately enjoyed that more than anything on King of Limbs. Hopefully the rest of the album is diverse and layered. Not looking for In Rainbows level of awesome. Just something better than their last output.

Hell yes, such a good album.

Outdoor Miner · May 3, 2016

Really like the song but I am dying to hear this in higher fidelity.

DataStream · May 3, 2016

If they are leading with something as wild as that, I expect this to be a wild ride.

To me IR is adult contemporary Radiohead. It's great, but they can definitely do more.

Good song

Hyped for the album!!

It's up on Spotify, possibly other shops.

That's... genuinely surprising considering Thom's disdain for Spotify.

Yes, I was thinking about this album this morning. Fantastic record.

Wonderful song. Can't wait for more.

took a couple listens to really dig in for me but I love it. Can't wait for this album.

I know, but I figured that most of it was down to the back catalogue pre-In Rainbows being at EMI/Parlophone before it went over to XL (hence the recent pulling of the special editions) and that King of Limbs was perhaps a one-off greasing of elbows and XL just saying 'pretty please'.

Not to mention, Thom has pulled his solo stuff from Spotify.

Recently removed all the special edition releases though. Rip b-sides

No b-sides of course. But I bought the WAV version, and it sounds much better. The mix is much more clear, especially with good headphones. Great song.

robotrock · May 3, 2016

I wonder if Burn the Witch is even on the album

Rather mixed feelings here after listening twice. The song has quite some atmosphere but as a 'song' it doesn't klick for me. Frankly this is not enough to get me being hyped for the album. But we'll have to wait for more impressions anyway, I guess.

Yeah I'm having similar thoughts about it. It's a good song but I don't think it's a track I'll listen to much in the future. It just doesn't do much for me. Glad Radiohead is back though, can't wait to hear the album.

Randdalf · May 3, 2016

I wonder if the album actually is coming out in June. It would be odd to release a lone single for purchase a few days before the album came out, wouldn't it? Anyway, I hope it's not the case, and they release it quickly like they did with TKOL.

What if there is no album? What if Burn The Witch is simply their new release for the next five years?

I see the sentiment that In Rainbows was like the greatest thing they ever did around here so much. I could never get around the fact that it's such a safe album. I guess that's what people want for the most part, but I like it more when they're unpredictable. Yes, I'm a big fan of King of Limbs, so I guess my opinion is meaningless to most.

Yeah, it just feels kind of... aimless? It doesn't really go anywhere interesting. It also falls into that trap some of their other recent material does where the melody often sounds like Thom doing random warbling.

Yeah. I'm really into the start and intro, then 10 seconds into the lyrics it doesn't really go anywhere else for the rest of the song and I lose interest. Still like it a lot more than TKOL though.

Steamlord · May 4, 2016

The progression is primarily in the strings.

Deeku · May 4, 2016

is the album out yet? :/

I loved the song at work on crappy headphones but man this wav file on my good cans at home is stunning, so much going on.

CoffeeJanitor · May 4, 2016

This sounds like a song off of a GREAT album

Count me hyped af

iddqd · May 4, 2016

Love the combo of video and song. Exited for the new album.

This is random but does anyone have a tip for another new band/album that I should give a shot? Something similar atmospheric?

strings are constantly evolving
bass added in second verse
still more strings and odd noises added during outro

there's tons of depth here, it's just mixed well below the surface.

Blader · May 4, 2016

Anyone else think Colin's bass work gets better and better with each album?

And I love the switch from bass synth to bass guitar in this. It's a small thing, but it sounds so good.

I think he's insanely under appreciated. I'm in awe every time I listen to Airbag.

The first thing I noticed was the bass! I think it makes the track and gives it some serious groove.

Sullichin · May 4, 2016

Burn The Witch is amazing, but it's obviously sending me on a Radiohead spiral.

Separator giving me chills once again. Definitely in my top ten list.

Separator, nude, how to disappear completely, could go ono

catapult37 · May 4, 2016

I like it, but real talk, I would have believed in the first 20 seconds that it was a coldplay song.

hughesta · May 4, 2016

man Amnesiac has the strongest fucking start

Packt Like Sardines
Pyramid Song
Pulk

definitely my favorite opening trilogy on a Radiohead album, with OKC closely behind.

Deeku · May 4, 2016

Has there been official confirmation that this is a single from the album? Cos this track is pretty dense, so I'm wondering if they couldn't fit it in with the rest of the album and hence releasing it as a stand alone single?

Bloom's bass plays in my head at least once a week.
