You will find lots of people who like their early stuff and then fell off. They are called "people who like stuff because it is listenable and not because some publication said it was good."

I don't mean to be abrasive, but I think this is a little ****ing ridiculous. I wasn't musically inclined when any of the albums came out so whatever marketing was done had no effect on my choice to like those albums. Kid A is one of my favorite records ever created; I think it's brilliant. Simply because you like their more guitar-driven rock material more doesn't mean their other material isn't good; it's a matter of opinion. I find Kid A to be a much more enjoyable listen than Pablo Honey or The Bends. I have a friend whos favorite album is Hail to the Thief. It's all completely subjective.
