I went to a multimedia listening event for the new [Radiohead][1] album, Kid A, which will be released October 3. The album is very different from any of the other Radiohead albums, and different from anything else I’ve heard recently. It is not a rock record. It was not what I expected in any way and I don’t think I really had enough of a chance to take it all in, but I really enjoyed some of what I heard, especially the first track, Everything in it’s Right Place. The lyrics and vocals take a back seat on the album, as what Radiohead has created here are more like different textures than different songs. ([more about my kid a impressions][2] )[][3]
