I guess I will be the one to voice his love of Tomorrow's Modern Boxes. It's very chip tuney I know but it has a very consistent instrumentation and tone that I appreciate conceptually.
Interference is just sublime writing and music all the way through.

I would not suggest Kid A is a flawless album, but by god how do you listen to it and not recognize it as one of the most sincere encapsulations of an artist's psyche splitting in the face of unimaginable fame and success ever recorded

one of the most sincere and beautiful and vulnerable albums ever made and someone can be so dead inside to write it off as "whiny"

It's crystallized pain. Amnesiac is similar but it has more verve to it, which makes it a bit more universal and easy to get with

I think that's a fair way to put it. It's like my relationship with Pan's Labyrinth in that I recognize it as a beautiful piece of art but it also makes me kinda sick in my stomach and I can't always engage with it in the way I can say... In Rainbows, which is melancholy in its own right but not as overwhelming.

It is objectively better art in that sense I realize because it makes me feel more but I'm not always ready to feel that much
