* ParanoiaFuel: "Burn the Witch" is this in spades!

The Special Edition contains "Spectre" as a Bonus Track.

* BittersweetEnding: The album closes with longtime fan-favorite "True Love Waits" [[note]]Which had been played live for 21 years before ending up on a studio album tracklist![[/note]]. This [[http://www.rollingstone.com/music/features/radioheads-a-moon-shaped-pool-album-is-a-haunting-stunning-triumph-20160508]] review from RollingStone notes:

* LastNoteNightmare: The beautiful ballad "Daydreaming" ends with sinister, distorted, backmasked voices chanting ''something''.

* PsychoStrings: "Burn The Witch" ends with a fine example of these

'''''A Moon Shaped Pool''''' is the ninth studio album by Music/{{Radiohead}}, released digitally through the band's website on May 8, 2016, with a physical CD and LP release issued a month later and a special limited edition boxset to follow in September.

* LoudnessWar: The worst example among Radiohead's discography to date, coming out to [=DR5=] overall. The mastering of "The Numbers" has attracted particular complaint for the extremely audible clipping distortion that can be found throughout the song, though most of the songs clip at some point.

A largely mellow and dreamy affair, the record combines a subtle blend of rock, electronica, and orchestral music, with prominent strings arranged by bandmember Jonny Greenwood. It contains the definitive versions of several unreleased songs that have been in the works for many years: "Burn the Witch" (a legendary song that had gone unreleased and teased since the recording sessions of their early-2000s albums), "True Love Waits" (a famous song that was first played in 1995 and then released on ''I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings'' in 2001), "Present Tense" (first played in 2008), "Identikit" (first played in 2012 on the ''TKOL'' tour), and "Ful Stop" (also played on the ''TKOL'' tour). It is also noted for having a alphabetical tracklisting.

Following the mixed response to their previous effort (the NewSoundAlbum ''Music/TheKingOfLimbs''), the more conventional style of ''A Moon Shaped Pool'' was greeted with open arms and dubbed a return to form by fans and critics, with some even considering it to be the [[SpiritualSuccessor true follow-up]] to ''Music/InRainbows'' (which also boasted similarly lush production and reliant heavily on strings).
