Ed O'Brien -- Guitar

This is a three-song EP released near the same time as Hail to the Theif. However, it sounds little like the main album, which is why I'm reviewing it right now.
Go To Sleep -- This was the most conventional song on the album Hail to the Theif. It is dominated by an acoustic guitar intro, and then a guitar with weird effects near the end (tremolo, maybe?). Good song. 4/5
A Gagging Order -- This is a pretty acoustic song -- just Thom and his guitar. It's fun to listen to while driving. 4.5/5
I am a Wicked Child -- This is a nice, upbeat almost blusey-sounding song. It slowly builds energy and tension throughout. A harmonica adds in a different sound for Radiohead. Excellent overall song. 5/5
Although short, this EP shows how Radiohead release some of the most excellent B-Sides in the modern music world. I will only rate it a 3/5 because of its short length. It's great for the fan (and a bargain at four dollars), but It's more to complete a collection than anything.
