    I've had the official release songs for about 2 months now.

    I wanted to hold off from downloading any of the new songs until the official release. The leaked songs are supposedly not fully mixed.

    How would you describe the songs you've heard? Are they
    more in the Bends/Ok Computer mold or the Kid A/Amnesiac
    mode? I'm hoping for a return to the Bends/OK computer
    style.

    I've only heard the one song. "There There"

    From the one song, I'd say it's not far off from Kid A/Amnesiac

    OK Computer is my favorite. I prefer the direction they've taken since then. Best concert I've ever seen.

    I work in music actually. I've gotten the CD quality version of the disc, not the un-mixed copy from the net.

    Anyhow, no, It's quite different than they've done in the past. You're going to have to listen to it for yourself. Trying to put music into descriptive terms is such a subjective thing. I think you should just check out the downloadable versions of the songs on Soulseek or something.

    That's cool...

    Radiohead is my favorite band, so I'm holding out for the original. I don't want to spoil my first listen to what I'm sure will be another great album.

    Well, I really think you'll like it. Radiohead is my G.F's favorite band, and OK Computer is her favorite album. She loves this album....so I guess if you guys both have similar tastes on this front then you will most likely enjoy this album as well. Tell me what you think when you get it.

    So far, I like it a lot. I'm only through a couple of songs but man I think I'm in love. I'm sure I'll have more to say later.
