Highlight songs for me are <i>PDA<\/i> (of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.popscene-sf\/\">Popscene<\/a> fame at least for me) as well as <i>Untitled<\/i>, <i>Obstacle 1<\/i> and <i> Say Hello to the Angels<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>It is always interesting to see what one considers to be &#8220;hit single caliber&#8221; in a record before you even become aware of what the record company\/band came to agree upon.  <i>PDA<\/i> is definitely the catchiest tune, and I can see why they&#8217;ve picked <i>Obstacle 1<\/i> as well.  It&#8217;s all about guitar riffs these days I guess &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I did &#8220;pick up&#8221; the latest Radiohead as well, and I must say that as far as single release is concerned I would have much rather had <i>2+2=5<\/i> picked up.  Great guitar riff, coming out of the blue one third into the song, making for another explosive, energetic Radiohead tune.  A little disappointing record as a whole though upon first impression.  We&#8217;ll have to wait and see if it grows on you like most other Radiohead releases do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been listening a lot to Interpol (allmusic.com) lately &#8211; last week or so, since I got my hands on their &#8220;Turn On the Bright Lights&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7ncoG-a","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=10"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=10"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=10"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jjmata.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=10"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
