I much prefer this to KoL already - it feels more substantial and cohesive, what most impresses me is it has such a unique quality to it
King of Limbs always felt a bit like 'hey, we're the B-Sides that made the cut! sorry there are only 8 of us and one of us done went feral'

It feels completely unique, they've knocked it out of the park here.

"thoughts on The Bends? @Potsy"
its whatever
"it feels more substantial and cohesive, what most impresses me is it has such a unique quality to it"
its funny how wrong you are. it would be pretty hard to be more objectively wrong in fact. this album sounds like a compilation of tracks from various points in their career, TKOL was extremely cohesive, obviously the fact that most of it isnt just random old songs has to do with that. and on top of that even if you dont like it TKOL is objectively one of their most unique records and this one is objectively one of their least unique records because it sounds like all their other albums smashed together while TKOL didnt sound like any of their albums.

You are wrong, that would be HTTT. I don't hear any pre In Rainbows-era in AMSP anyway.
Great so far, btw

TKOL is unique, I agree. Still their second worst.

The King of Limbs cohesive? It sounds like two four track long EPs
This has a soothing rippling aesthetic that keeps repeating at different junctures tying the album together - just because a song exists for a long time doesn't mean you can't reimagine it or record it differently.
Feral and Give Up the Ghost on the same album two tracks apart? Not cohesive for me
They took a 5 year break after releasing a short 8 track effectively mini album - not a sign the creative juices were at their peak. It of course could hit some people's sweet spot, I'm not denying that. It was as much a mixed bag as HTTT for me

it has, just not on their band page yet

i kinda have to agree with Doof with TKOL sounding like two EPs. but even then its pretty cohesive regardless.

youre right HTTT is like that too, but you're wrong that none of this sounds like pre in rainbows thats just flat out fucktarded the beginning of daydreamer is straight out of kid a for instance and like half the tracks that flop a bit to the guitar driven side sound like HTTT shit

"Feral and Give Up the Ghost on the same album two tracks apart? Not cohesive for me"
and yet this album follows Burn the Witch with Daydreaming in what is easy the least cohesive one two punch of all time
