In this week's slate of new Rolling Stone reviews, Jon Dolan praises Radiohead's The King of Limbs, which he describes as the band's funkiest and most elusive record. Rob Sheffield is fond of R.E.M.'s 15th album Collapse Into Now, noting that its vibrant, eclectic set of songs sounds like the work of men who would "rather be a band than a legend." Stacey Anderson is less impressed by the debut album of Beady Eye, the band featuring everyone in Oasis except for primary songwriter Noel Gallagher, and Dolan pans Alexander Ebert's new record for its annoying "dream-catcher naiveté."

On the singles front, Simon Vozick-Levinson digs TV on the Radio's "relatively straightforward declaration of heartache" on their new song "Will Do," and Jody Rosen adores "Loser Like Me," the first-ever original song penned for Glee by superproducer Max Martin.
