Sprawling, overwrought, unkempt rock music.
-
BlenderThe album seems resigned, defeated, passive -- like an hour-long sigh. [#17, p.130]
-
Hail to the Thief's big drawback has less to do with its similarity to its predecessor than the sense that Radiohead's famed gloominess is becoming self-parodic.
-
The new songs have attitude, but they sound like outtakes from 2000's classic Kid A and 2001's lesser Amnesiac.
