A KID / KID A(T) SKATE PARK MINUS THOM YORKE.

It has taken me fifteen years, but I am starting to like Radiohead's Kid A. I knew I would at some point. I loved The Bends, OK Computer, Hail to the Thief, and most everything else, including Jonny Greenwood's cinema scores and Thom's solo surprises, but #KidA has been a very, very slow-grow on me. But after a long journey, I am finally getting there. Hail to the chief. Queue National Anthem. Now go listen to their new track. It's good the first time around. ____ #Radiohead #2016music #longviewwa #skateparks
