The first 6 tracks are perfect, and the album only gets bogged down in the middle with We Suck Young Blood and The Gloaming. It’s still a fantastic album overall.

I've never been the biggest fan of The Bends as a whole, but Planet Telex -> The Bends -> High and Dry -> Fake Plastic Trees is a remarkably good sequence of tracks. Yes, even High and Dry, which may be a useless pop song that's about nothing at all, but it's a good useless pop song that's about nothing at all. As for HTTT, I've always felt Sit Down, Stand Up sounded like it belonged somewhere later in the album (maybe after Backdrifts?), but I dunno what would work better as a second track except maybe Go to Sleep. 2 + 2 = 5 was absolutely the perfect track to begin the album with, though, and that's the main reason I was never able to get behind Thom Yorke's proposed alternative track list. In Rainbows is the only Radiohead album where they got the sequence of tracks so perfect that I don't think I've even entertained the idea of an alternative tracklisting. (I guess technically Kid A too, if combining it with Amnesiac doesn't count.)

I’m a massive Talking Heads fan and that’s probably why I have a big predisposition to loving TKOL.

Sand Monster posted:And speaking of, how about favorite track combinations overall? I agree but also think that Kid A is one of those albums with perfect flow the whole way through. Also the 2+2 = 5 to Sit Down Stand Up transition is really good, the whiplash between ferocity and creepy insistence is very effective. Also HTTT's queasy, off kilter, twisted fairy tale atmosphere is brilliant, and the fact it was thrown together so quickly is a real boon. It being a bit of a baggy monster actually helps it, imo, even if some of the songs aren't the best (although I think The Gloaming is really good, it goes round my head a lot these days). The HTTT era also produced The Most Gigantic Lying Mouth of All Time, which I adore. I love that they were trying to bring back the whole early MTV independent, viewer submitted art thing, even if it never quite got off the ground. Well worth a watch if you've not seen it.

Before Radiohead splits, I want them to come out of nowhere and end their career with a PH-esque album of shameless, sometimes questionable, guitar pop.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdmL835q9To This version of Bloom is pretty nice. That song was hella underrated when TKOL released. I know people prefer the live version but the studio version probably breaks my top 10 of their tracks.
