Has anyone heard this EP yet? I haven't but I'm quite curious about it,
I saw that Pitchfork gives it a 4.0! What's up with that? Is it really that bad?
(I hereby decide that tolstoyed isn't allowed to post in this thread :P)

It's just a b-sides collection isn't it? And a live-version of 2+2=5 if I'm not mistaken. But no new songs :-(
Still if I see it, I'll probably buy it anyway :-p If only for the artwork.

By the way morton, did you happen to notice that one of my threads finally went over 100 replies this weekend! I guess you're not the only one of us who knows how to make 100+ threads anymore. ;-)

I have the b-sides... they are worth getting if you don't already have them. Where Bluebirds Fly is verrrry good as is Fog and some others I can't remember.

Bought it yesterday. And it's a very good listen! I already had three of the HTTT-singles... but I hardly ever listen to singles. I can imagine myself listening to this compilation alot more. Right now I can't get enough of it :-)
Highlights:
Remyxomatosis. A really fun remix. I like how it gets more and more fucked up towards the end of the song and the vocals get chopped up etc.
I Will (Los Angeles Version). I like this version better than the one on HTTT. Altough that one is really good as well... this one sounds more pleasant and melodic.
Gagging Order. Just a beautiful acoustic Radiohead-song like they used to make 'em. Reminds me a little of the softer songs on The Bends.
Fog (Again) (live). Now this just left me speechless the first time I heard it. Stripped from all the experimentation and weird effects... this is just the pure song and it is breathtaking :-o It's much too short but guaranteed to give goosebumps to any radiohead-fan.
Where Bluebirds Fly. One of their better experiments in electronica imo. Nice haunting melody and very nervous rhythms.
The artwork looks even better than on the pictures I saw online! Donwood & Dr. Tchock are amazing. They should make a nice big and long book sometime! Away from the limited format of cd-packaging I bet they could do even more amazing things.
I like the picture of the grim reaper... "Hi there. I had a window in my schedule, so I thought I'd pop by a few years early. Is that okay with you? Let's hope so.". And then he stands against a background of factories and powerlines... I can't even really tell why, but it seems like such a strong image to me.

"i don't know how to do it anymore though, you must've stolen the power from me :P"
Haha, no I think this was a once in a lifetime thing for me. I don't even start alot of threads to begin with. But still it was nice to experience going over 100 atleast one time :-p
"remember how in the past we would reply to eachother in different threads, just to keep eachothers threads from going over 100 posts"
Hehe :-p I bet that annoyed the hell out of everybody else. Having a discussion spread out over 2 threads... ah crazy times... Still we had lots of fun here back in those days. And ofcourse you know I wouldn't be posting in here if this wasn't such a small thread ;-)

I downloaded it and it seems pretty good. I should buy it though because I fancy Stanley.

Apparently the Four Tet remix is available as a b-side on one of the singles without the glitches.
