read the lyrics while you listen. they're so great, and the way they emerge out of the music while you're looking at them is so cool. whole new dimensions man

i used to think

i used to think

there is no future left at all

i used to think



^ fucking brilliant. there were a few others that i heard this most recent time that i never even noticed before tho. like "there are weapons we can use/be constructive with your blues" from Dollars & Cents, and all the specific details in Life in a Glass House. i never even heard the "but there's someone listening in" at the end of the chorus, which is sort of the whole point of the song haha. so yeah. this album means a shitload more to me now.

and damn, Revolving Doors is something else entirely. really don't get all the bashing on it. it's honestly one of the coolest things i've ever heard. and how the lyrics are just elaborations on the common "door" metaphor:



but there are trapdoors

that you can't come back from



DEATH!

I would probably have this as my fifth Radiohead 5 if I enjoyed electronica more. Still basically a masterpiece.

It's probably more guitar driven than Kid A actually

It is but some of the more electronic tracks here are more built around cold electronic beats than most of Kid A is (basically everything except Idioteque) so it's always sounded more electronic to me. I may have no idea what I'm talking about though, I know next to nothing about electronic music. Kid A just feels more organic and less electronic overall to me.

I always saw Amnesiac as warm and Kid A as the cold one. Just listen to the samples of "How to Disappear...", "Treefingers" or "Idioteque", they're so icy, and then to the lively acoustic sounds of "You and Whose Army?" (the bass!), "Knives Out" or "Life in a Glass House". Or look at the album covers. But yeah, opinions.

I love the horn explosions in Life in a Glass House. sonically, they contradict the hell out of the rest of the album, which i think is what makes it such a perfect closer
