And just like that, an album appears. The way Radiohead does things is the way to do things. No hooha, no fanfare, just get it out there and let the work do the rest.

Of course, the internet is in overdrive and reviews aren’t hard to come by… we’ll just say this; if you’re a fan, you’ll love it. If not, you should love it. First listens have us enraptured so far, but this 8-year-old’s scrawled summation is the best we’ve read!

Deciphered, he says this:

1. ‘Burn The Witch’: “Festival like”

2. ‘Daydreaming’: “A long song kind of boring”

3. ‘Decks Dark’: “A good song relaxing”

4. ‘Desert Island Disk’: “My favourite song so far”

5. ‘Ful Stop’: “Reminds me of boxing”

6. ‘Glass Eyes’: “A nice peaceful song”

7. ‘Identikit’: “Don’t really like it hard to hear what he says”

8. ‘The Numbers’: “Reminds me of Kung Fu Panda

9. ‘Present Tense’: “Nice music”

10. ‘Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor Rich Man Poor Man Beggar Man Thief’: “My favourite song in the album”

11. ‘True Love Waits’: “Could make people cry”

Any record review that references Kung Fu Panda has got maximum cred as far as we’re concerned.

Go get it now from the band, or on your Apple things
