that's actually shockingly difficult to believe as a Brit who lived through the height of their popularity... seemed as though it was practically compulsory if you had even a passing interest in music



although I'm guessing you had quite a different experience

i grew up in the southern US so Radiohead basically never got radio play in my small little rural town. I didn’t even hear creep until I was well into my teens.



maybe one day I’ll give it a shot but I just kind of have this gut feeling that I wouldn’t vibe with it at all.

depends, a few of the hits were massively overplayed but the people I knew would just stick on The Bends or OK Comp on, I wouldn't have gotten into Kid A / Amnesiac without specifically choosing to check those albums. Save for the odd (relatively infrequent) track you would hear by chance. Honestly a lot of my love for post-OKC RH is probably born out of rebellion for all the shit those albums received from a certain sub-sector of fans that just wanted guitars - and it still happens now.

It's funny because Creep is / was huge and yet it doesn't really give much insight into what the band would eventually become.

if you've made it this far without radiohead, you're probably the better for it somehow. band is a gateway not a GOAT, and the countless debates about the band's inner workings and order of excellence you've been spare is a big blessing. would probs rec In Rainbows (and mayb OKC if you want those 90s vibes), but that's about it
and yes park, defs change it back

sometimes gateway artists stick and that's okay, fortunately I choose the right path and embraced the 'weird random bleeps' otherwise I probably wouldn't be here posting this shit now...

oh wait

but hmm, I'm definitely biased but Kid A is probably the most essential RH album even for someone who's made it this far without them. Certainly not OKC. In Rainbows... maybe.

the only thing that’s ever intrigued me is that apparently kid a is influenced by things like Autechre and aphex twin but it’s never been enough to actually make me want to check it out.



ive just sort of accepted that anything that can be described with the blanket term of “rock” isn’t really my thing.

OKC holds the most value of any of em as a time capsule imo, which is half the reason you'd tune into early Radiohead. Kid A is obvs good, but I don't feel any need to pedestal it unless u want to embrace park's sputmeme and shoehorn it as the heating heart of all things experimental and electronic (which in itself gives me huge fomo for anyone lucky enough not to care about radiohead)
