5 stars This music gives you thrills. It may have poppy elements, but it's really prog to me. The weird electronic sounds and the weird singing gives you the feeling that it is not quite pop. The vocals are weird but beautiful.

Best three songs: 'Paranoid Android.' A great song with no couplet-chorus structure. Very nice guitar solos. Very epic. 'Exit Music (for a film).' Starts very modest and builds up to beautiful hights. 'Karma Police'. Nice pianolines. May look poppy, but has a strange pianomelody in the chorus. Beautiful epic ending.

All the other songs are also great and will not be a dissapointment. 'Fitter happier' is some weird talking about 'a pig in a cage, on antibiotics.'

They owe lots of their style (and their name!) because of Thom Yorke head. He hears weird talking and weird sounds that aren't there. Very spacey.

There's nothing dull here. Five stars
