Kid A at #1 is interesting. I liked it very much, but it's such an experimental mind ****, not sure I'd put it as their best. I think The Bends is much better than they have them ranked. Would probably put OK Computer 1, The Bends 2, then maybe Kid A at 3, and I think Pablo Honey has always gotten the shaft and I don't really know why. I'd have that higher than 7.

Love Kid A. Got it as a gift from my dad and listened to *heavily* during my freshman year in college. It was my first exposure to Radiohead, so I'm pretty biased towards it.

 

[Rabbuk]

The bends and hail to the thief are too low, as is pablo honey.

 

[Macloney]

1) OK Computer

Distant 2) the Bends

3) Everything else is pretty irrelevant

I'll listen to it, but I haven't been as enthused about their albums since Hail to the Thief.

I'm listening to the new album now. I nearly wore out my cd of ok computer in high school, but I now listen to the bends more and would rank it just a bit higher. I hated kid A/amnesiac when they came out but have grown on me some since. My top three would be bends, ok computer, in rainbows.

I didn't start listening to Radiohead until 2002 when I went to ISU, and I ended up listening to Amnesiac before Kid A and have always liked it more. OK Computer is my favorite my far though. I'll listen to the new one tonight. My favorites are:

1. Ok Computer
2. Amnesiac
3. Kid A

 

[Entropy]

Still haven't listened to it yet, since Spotify is my primary method for listening to new releases.

 

[Doc]

I'm a big fan of this one. I think I like it better than of the albums since Amnesiac. I really like the new version of True Love Waits.

One thing I really don't like is the snoring during Daydreaming. The song brings me to this beautiful place, and then the snoring comes in and harshes my mellow.

 

[Clonehomer]

1) The Bends
2) OK Computer
3) Pablo Honey

Didn't really get In Rainbows or Hail to the Theif. Kid A was wired but good, yet I still don't really listen to it.

For me it's OK computer, the bends, kid a. Pablo honey is good too.

Hail to the Thief
In Rainbows
Pablo Honey

Haven't listened to the new one.

I'm with those who like the Bends. My list would probably go
The Bends
OK Computer
Then the rest all fits into the same spot for me, where I like them all a lot, but am not in love with them.

I've always been a big radiohead fan, seeing them every time they were in or near Chicago, until they started to go the Lollapalooza route. I'm just too old now for music fests.

My two favorite songs aren't on either of those. The live version of "Like Spinning Plates" and "4 Minute Warning" are two songs I listen to all the time.

The Bends is a great album though, or whatever you call them now. A lot of 3 guitar hard driving riffs on that record, really good stuff.

Burn the Witch seems prescient. I know the song was about Europe's issues but still.
