Stuck-in-my-head Sunday: Give Up the Ghost

Radiohead, though formed in the mid-eighties, released their first single in the early-nineties, gained momentum through the mid-nineties, and were internationally recognized group by the late-nineties. I'd imagine that 1997's album, OK Computer could top the 'landmark records list' of any lover of alternative rock. Being known for the noticeable evolution of their musical style throughout the early-2000s, Radiohead managed to build up quite a stir over their latest release, The King of Limbs.  Since it's release, The King of Limbs has endured reviews that exhibit excitement as well as heartbreak. Being just a moderate fan of Radiohead, I'll share this week's review of Give Up the Ghost without any evident level of bias toward the album itself.

I was able to obtain the album on the first day the digital download was made available on Radiohead's website. I was heavily anticipating the release of this record, so, like an overly excited child on Christmas morning, I gave The King of Limbs quick listen as soon as the download was complete. As previously mentioned, I had already been hooked by the bait that is Lotus Flower, so I enjoyed that track once more and let the others play while I distracted by whatever else was going on that evening. It wasn't until I got in bed that night that I began to really dissect The King of Limbs and compare it to previous Radiohead works. Upon doing so,  I was surrounded by comfort as the speakers of my bedside mp3 player gently exhaled track number four, Give Up the Ghost. Since, I've had iTunes create a Genius playlist based on the song, and it's been my go-to track for a majority of this week.
