Had to bump this up because the highlights here are still among the best RH songs ever. Fake Plastic Trees beats any post-Kid A track for me

Fake Plastic Trees, My Iron Lung and Street Spirit are all top tier. Unfortunately there are a couple of average tracks that hold this back just a bit. 4th best Radiohead

Bloom (4), Lotus (5), Ghost (4) and Separator (4.5) are worth an EP



Codex (3.5 but it’s such a retread of past glories) and Feral (2), Magpie (2.5) and Little (3) just aren’t that exciting to me :/

Magpie and Little are sort of oddities in the RH discog but they’re elevated by still having strong melodies and unique atmospheres. Lotus Flower is a tad overrated imo but still a great track - plus it gave us the Thom Yorke dancing meme. :D The whole album benefits from having a great forest atmosphere and having a nice concise runtime. It’s the oddest album in the Radiohead discog no doubt but I love it.

Magpie, Feral and Little sound like the sort of filler that clogged up HTTT to me I dunno

Codex is no better than Sail to the Moon, Little by Little is no better than Go to Sleep, Feral is no better than Backdrifts, Magpie is no better than Scatter Brain



I’m no real fan of HTTT either tbh



Both have 4 great songs and ‘the rest’.



Actually the top four of ‘Wolf’, ‘There There’, ‘2+2’ and ‘Sit Down’ might be slightly better than the top four from this. Plus ‘I Will’ is decent if slight.



Whichever way you look at it - both HTTT and KoL should rate about the same or something fishy is going on
