Nothing new. If you like Radiohead, you'll enjoy the album; if you're not, your time will be better wasted elsewhere.

I think the album artwork is interesting.  Maybe they'll move even beyond Kid A, and for sure In Rainbows, with experimentation. Any case I can't help but pre-order it Smile

I just assumed it would be in a sleeve that was recycled or something like that, similar to Serj Tankian's solo album. But I may wait until I see picutres of it before ordering the full thing
