The King of Limbs (Pt. 2)

The Big Mates discuss Marmite, the Large Hadron Collider, newspapers, and The King of Limbs by Radiohead.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas conclude their track-by-track deep dive into the band's oft-maligned eigth album and offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between. They explore how the album was received at the time of release and the legacy it has left behind.

They also touch on the singles released in the aftermath of the album, Supercollider/The Butcher, and The Daily Mail/Staircase, as well as talking about the band's world tour!

What is a codex? What's going on with the handclaps in Lotus Flower? How did Lucas get his powers? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?

Our next episode is out on Monday March 13th and will feature insightful commentary for The King of Limbs From the Basement!
