I love The King of Limbs, one of my most listened-to RH albums. Good album to gently caress to, and the newspaper edition is awesome. Plus they emailed me bonus tracks and I added them to my album for free. Hardly ever listen to In Rainbows anymore, it's pretty uneven though I liked it a lot at the time. Amnesiac and Hail to... have both aged extremely well. Basically, Radiohead are good devs and gave me free DLC

Popcorn posted:Ed: "We should have pruned it down to 10 songs, then it would have been a really good record." Such an awesome record though. There's not an album out there that better captures the paralytic 'don't ask questions' mood of the War on Terror in it's early stages. I remember meeting people that basically said Radiohead was 'over' when they heard it, probably the same people that said Amnesiac was lovely leftovers, or that KoL is some sort of Fly-lo copycat montage. Basically, every Radiohead album is the worst Radiohead album...for a while.

TKoL is great, newspaper album is great. Too bad for the dingbats that can't look at the cool stuff inside. I like that Radiohead made an album about Yggdrasil. Sell your house and buy gold.

Barry Foster posted:The album does have a kind of overarching sense of paranoia and darkness which I'd say is pretty consistent on every song. It's a bit bloated, but it's an effective and thematically coherent artwork, I think. This is totally true, especially with regard to the climate of the times upon release. There was just a lot to say back then. Rollersnake posted:I like that it cuts the tracks I don't think work very well on the album, but sticking 2+2=5 somewhere in the middle is so wrong. Hail to the Thief is a flawed album, but it has the strongest opening of pretty much any Radiohead album except for Kid A. I agree, in fact, I feel like the first 6 songs of HttT are in perfect order and give off this incredible sense of oppression and dread. I can deal with We Suck Young Blood. The Gloaming loses me, though. There is something incredibly propulsive about the first half of Hail that I don't think any other Radiohead album manages, the idea that the album starts running on fumes after 8-9 songs is notable because it's been on maximum burn for 30 minutes by that point. If I were to trim the album in a playlist I'd keep the overall order but directly cut out The Gloaming, I Will, A Punch Up, and Scatterbrain. The transitions are nice this way and none of the overall tone is lost. The album is great tho, definitely gonna give the Thom-order a spin.

Kid A is a pretty good b-sides collection for Amnesiac. It would also make a good EP.

A human heart posted:Death to corporate rock Well, they're using corporate structure the way it was originally intended. They establish a corporate charter to accomplish a specific task or difficult project and dissolve the charter when complete rather than allowing the purpose of a specific corporate entity to mutate decade after decade away from its original purpose, as it is with many contemporary corporate leviathans.

Illavick posted:I really, really like this single. It feels more colorful and alive and not as convoluted as the vibe I've been getting their recent stuff. TKOL is a decent album in my opinion but it definitely aims more to be experimental than an album of good songs. They went a little too far in that direction for my taste. Witch feels more like something I might find on OK Computer despite the digital rhythm. I'm pretty drat happy with that as their more aggressive and fast tracks from that album are perennial favorites of mine. I never considered TKOL too experimental, just more on the ambient/intimate side of things. I mean, Radiohead have been chronicling paranoia and alienation for over 20 years, and it's kind of cool that they have at least one album that's a bit more inviting.

Mutant Standard posted:You use to be alright. What happened? I'm defective, I think. Songs 3-6 on that album turn me right the gently caress off. There are a lot of sweeping strings and diddling soundtrack noises throughout, but overall the rest is great. I liked In Rainbows quite a bit more on release, maybe because I thought the timing of the emancipation story for the band was cool and pay-what-you-like felt novel. It's near the bottom of the list for me now as far as their albums go. It doesn't really gel on the whole, but it also doesn't take risks.

Hedrigall posted:In Rainbows has fantastic songs but it doesn't really have an overarching feeling/vibe like Kid A through to HTTT. I like those three albums better. I guess this is where I'm coming from. It's probably the album of theirs that, in spirit, would be harmed least by being turned into a random playlist.
