847. Radiohead - In Rainbows

I won't talk about the method with which the album was released, nor the amazing package that was put together but instead solely focus on the music. In a time where the digital music format dominates, and songs are mixed louder and louder to compensate for the poor mp3 quality Radiohead releases a quiet intimate album (still there are a few moments of jagged frenzy bliss). As with every RH lp it has a texture, musical theme and inimitable character - it's very much dreamlike, at times throwing you into a hung over haze.
