Hmmm, we feel very differently towards these last two then. I wouldn't change a thing about TKOL, and I would cut a lot from this one.
Harry Patch would slow this down too much I think. Very much a stand-alone track.

I feel like it matches the sonic palette and tone of this album better than something like Burn the Witch. But it was meant to be a one-off and recorded years before this album was released.

True. It would fit better than Burn The Witch. But it still doesn't fit in the album context I feel.
I think Burn The Witch was a weird inclusion here too, although I do like it. It doesn't fit the album at all, starts it off on totally the wrong foot.

The Numbers is one of my least favs here
Present Tense is my favorite, True Love Waits, Identikit, Daydreaming, Burn the Witch
I would still love a full album like Burn The Witch tbh

Present Tense is gorgeous, that or Daydreaming is my fav. The Numbers is good but 6th or 7th best for me.

Can't imagine thinking Present Tense is boring in any way but sure

I honestly think Spectre is one of the bands greatest of all time. Would’ve fit lovely on this.

I'm just glad it didn't get used for the film, Sony choosing the god awful Sam Smith song instead just makes them look like bigger idiots

I really enjoyed the Adele Skyfall song they chose, and I think Radiohead’s song would’ve been a phenomenal song to follow that up with in Spectre (even though the movie wasn’t nearly as good)

Yeah their Spectre tune was 100% amazing. Love it. Instead we got "I'm spFfHhuffocathhHhJing!"-Sam...

There’s no way LP10 isn’t the end of Radiohead, if LP10 ever happens

If this is their last, I think it's an amazing one to go out on. If it isn't, the next one will have to be something special. It'll also be ages away since Jonny, Thom and Ed have their solo and soundtrack music, on top of The Smile.

Yeah, if there’s going to be a final Radiohead album, it’s going to probably sound a lot more…I dunno, indebted to hypnagogic pop, vaporwave, hauntological values, while still trying to maintain the quintessential spirit of implosion towards some unknown truth. It’ll either be obscenely long by their standards or a short and refined “pop” swan song. Just my prediction

Maybe they’ve been squirrelling stuff away while engaged with their solo projects.
There will be another album, it’ll definitely be their last.

Daydreaming is still one of the best songs ever

To get all pretentious for a moment, I think the principles of hypnagogia and vaporwave around memories and lost dreams come through heavily on Anima, in the material surrounding it, the music itself and the short film. It wouldn't be a stretch to see Radiohead delve into that too, whether through instrumentals, lyrics or artwork.
@zak I'm hoping whilst making The Smile's album, Thom and Jonny (and Nigel) left some tracks unrecorded because they felt they'd suit Radiohead better. Turning the unreleased Radiohead song "Skirting/Skating on the Surface" into a Smile song almost seems like they want to wipe the slate clean for Radiohead, much in the same way AMSP did by taking unreleased live favourites and giving them full studio recordings (and also miraculously making them work on an album despite being written at completely different times, even decades).
