Album Rating: 5.0
Interesting the opener doesn't rank too high for everyone, that intro is still what I recall first when I think of this album.
Most iconic Radiohead opener, has to be classed a 5 out of 5 track.

I was just annoyed because it’s a long title, clumsy to abbreviate and my auto-correct insists “its” cannot be used in any context whatsoever. It’s annoying. Docked half a rank
Serious answer: I think over-exposure plays a part in a lot of my Radiohead rankings (or any music from my formative years) and not just shifting tastes. Some cuts have aged better than others because I actively needed to put them on to hear them (idk, I think that one was played quite a lot, even if a few were played more… fun off Karma Police, AGAIN).

Man I love the opener so much

anyway, not sure what I will rate this now but it certainly ain’t no 5. My memories remain unbroken but I don’t do ‘legacy ratings’ or whatever so it’ll drop by a half point minimum (possibly a full mark, making In Rainbows my new ‘official’ RH champ)

Yeah, 5s should just increase and increase in number in your ratings over time, a demotion is a very sad event.
It happens in Doofdom but is akin to a death in the family.

Lord IDK what it was about those first two tracks, but once I was able to absorb them and keep going past them, the entire album started to open up

That being said, the title track is the musical form of pure uncanny valley

Idk, I remember just being hypnotized by the textures on first listen. I had never really heard analog and digital textures mixed that way in the context of a rock band. It still feels innovative now, nevermind when it came out in 2000. I feel like something like this had to make waves in music like Einstien's theory of relativity made in physics.

Weirdly, it was In Limbo that made me realize how genious this album was. Supposedly a filler(ish) track, but it comes up so smoothly after Optimistic, providing a trippy intermezzo before the chaos of Idioteque unfolds.

"Yeah, 5s should just increase and increase in number in your ratings over time, a demotion is a very sad event."
I'm currently erm 'making space for more', in theory
It just seems daft having this put on a pedestal where it no longer feels belonging. As a full album experience I enjoy practically all my (updated perspective) 4.5s to a greater degree. An exception could be made for the strength of the highs here, in order for it to retain 4.5s status, yet I guess that's tbc

gabba - the last minute and a half of Optimistic into the first minute of In Limbo is the peak of the album agreed....despite neither song in isolation being among the absolute best on show.
The nightmarish Idioteque fade into the DJ Shadow'ish intro to 'Morning Bell' is quality too.
