Fans had to wait almost four years for Radiohead's last album, "King of Limbs," and when it finally got here it was a measly eight tracks. They quickly made up for it by releasing a couple of b-sides and a series of remix albums, but it doesn't take long for eager listeners to start craving more. The band usually addresses that hunger by debuting new songs at their live shows, and that's exactly what they did at the American Airlines Arena in Miami on Monday with two unreleased compositions: "Identikit" and "Cut a Hole."
The first tune, "Identikit," is a percussion-heavy song with Yorke and another band member (possibly Ed O'Brien) singing different lines over each other. Billboard calls it "electronic-focused," but it sounds more like "Knives Out" than anything off of "King of Limbs." The second track, "Cut a Hole," is much slower, reminiscent of songs like "Sail to the Moon" or "Codex." In any case, we'd love to know what you all think of the new songs. Is it as good as past Radiohead tracks?

Most definitely.
Radiohead are an ever changing muse.
Though personally I miss The Bends and OK Computer I still love them and will buy any album before hearing any of it.
This isn't a very good representation of what they sound like, but so far, I'm hoping for the best, though I doubt they'll top Videotape, Kid A, and Last Flowers. It won't be better than their older stuff, but still, I'm looking forward to it.
Thought that their newest release "King of Limbs" is damned good.
Going to their Dallas, TX show tonight as a matter of fact and I'm excited.
Gonna catch them at Coachella this year too!!!
they get better and better
and always sound better than the studio recording.
that's the one thing that proves they are or any band is a great band. cheers mates.
...oh wait.
I hope they put just as much effort into it as they have in their previous albums, I would say King of Limbs is their 2nd to worst album.
