@Trifolium: Yeah, the album that's always really confused me was A Moon Shaped Pool. That doesn't sound like a fuckin' 4.1 to me, in some ways I actually thought it was worse than The King of Limbs. Aside from maybe OK Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac, and In Rainbows, this band doesn't do a ton for me right now.

I agree on A Moon Shaped Pool, don't love it as much as others seem to like it either.

What do you think about Hail To The Thief? That one is very diverse, contains some of their finest moments imo. There There for instance. And 2+2=5. But the average for that one is too low, haha!

It's pretty close to the four albums I mentioned, but I need to revisit the discog. Truth be told OK Computer is the only one I've revisited since I did my full discog of this band.

Well, a second (or third... or +) listen might do wonders! If you're interested in them at least, if it's not your thing it's just not your thing.

Hail to the thief is a mess. Individually most songs on there work decently well, although there is a some weak songs in there too imo, but as a whole it jumps around too much



2+2=5 & there there are among their best songs though, i agree

Yeah that's a common critique for it, and I do completely understand it. For me though I just love that 'White Ablum'-ness of HTTT. And I don't dislike any track on it. It is one of my faves.

yeah I feel like there's a ton more to unpack and I just need to devote more time to it.

Good! Well, then you're in for an adventure! I'll send over some good vibes, maybe they'll help.

TKOL is still criminally underrated, one of their best albums.

Yeah, it definitely doesn't deserve all the hate.

'yeah, maybe I just don't "get" Radiohead. Which sucks, because I love Thom's vocals.'

I love the fact Thom has worked with so many other musicians and without realising he's part of the collaboration (beforehand) I always recognise it's him, he has such a distinctive voice. It last happened with a PJ Harvey track a few months back.

The band don’t do it for me anymore, but I remember that being a little below par at the time. Better than ‘It’s Blitz’ at least.

I watched you sulk, I watched you burn.

These days this album is hella underrated. Just compare it growth-wise to Pablo.
