---@Sowing, your tracklist has a better flow, placing the t/t down on the list and starting with one of the best tracks was a good move. Will prefer this order in the future!---



Glad you enjoyed it! I love re-ordering albums to my liking. Obviously the content is the content, but I truly believe a good tracklisting can improve my rating by as much as +0.5.

"but I truly believe a good tracklisting can improve my rating by as much as +0.5."

If anyone has this rated over a non-Pablo RH they’re a hilariously misguided case of poor taste I’m afraid

Those two albums have a few standout tracks that aren't quite matched here but overall as a full listen this is streets ahead



Both those Radiohead albums are a massive trudge to get through in all honesty, felt that way from the day both were released and still feel like that a hundred listens later

Anima was a really strong release, felt way less phoned in than this tripe
