Radiohead – A Moon Shaped Pool (CD)

Released quietly on a Sunday morning with little warning, A Moon Shaped Pool arrived the way Radiohead albums tend to, on their own terms and no one else's. The orchestral arrangements, handled largely by longtime collaborator Jonny Greenwood, give the record a chamber music weight, while Thom Yorke's vocals sit in a register that feels more exposed than anything since "Exit Music." "True Love Waits" alone, a song fans had waited nearly two decades to hear properly recorded, makes this essential.
