If you have any interest in hearing live recordings with mediocre sound of about 13 new Radiohead songs, I direct you to this site, which has recordings from this past week’s shows in Lisbon. I’ll write more about the songs later on, but my immediate impression is that if you’re only going to be able to download four of them, go for “Sail To The Moon”, “A Punch Up At The Wedding”, “We Suck Young Blood”, and “Myxomatosis”. Hardcore Radiohead bootleg fans should be overjoyed, since the band has resurrected two The Bends-era gems, “Lift” and “I Will”. That’s good news. Overall, the songs are a lot more traditionally arranged than most of Kid A and Amnesiac, which should please their more conservative fans. However, they aren’t much like anything from The Bends or OK Computer either. A lot of the songs are like a logical next step from Amnesiac songs like “You and Whose Army”, “Pyramid Song”, and “I Might Be Wrong”.
