I kind of agree -- when I go back and listen to it, it doesn't seem to be as great.
Things to consider though -- so many people have been influenced by Radiohead -- its easy to see how they could start to appear bland in comparison -- their music has been subtly dispersed into everything (its all over TV anymore). And at the time, grunge rock was in major decline -- Radiohead was pretty refreshing.
But some of the tracks definitely seem a little generic in 2014 though. "Lucky" is still incredible IMO.
