The way the band builds on dynamics and makes the entire album flow smoothly makes In Rainbows not only enjoyable, but easy to play while concentrating on other things (like blogging). No particular song has really set itself above the others, which is the case in their prior release; Hail to the Thief. With that being said, no particular song falls short of any expectations. Solid album, hands down.

For some time it seemed as if Radiohead was finished as a band. Thom Yorke released The Eraser in 2006, which solidified my skepticism even more. I was wrong. With this album originally being an optional donation download, Radiohead let the world know that not only another album was complete, but they were going about it in a totally different way than ever before.

Rating: 4/5
