I bought this album when I was 12, it means a lot to me.

First time I heard it I didn't know what the fuss was about. Gave it another go a few months later and warmed to it. Then after another few listens it became one of my favourite albums. Let Down is just an incredible song. I still think i prefer the Bends though. A bit more lush and hence,a bit more towards my liking.

OK Computer is silly good. And, so far, it's been lastingly great. It wasn't just a product of its time.

I don't get it!
How can someone rate this album as awful?
I know everybody can rate with his own way and taste, but awful...?

No anti depressants needed.

There's quite a bit of humour in Radioheads stuff , you just got to know where to look for it.

Progarchives reviews of Radiohead albums are always classic.

Bunch of idiots warning you not to listen to them because "they're so depressing they'll make you suicidal".

Stupid c*nts.

Huh? If the album is potentially good then why don't you at least try to get over your Radiohead prejudice and give it a reasonably objective listen and rate it upon its musical quality rather than upon who it is by...

the first time i technically heard the album was in another review of the album where someone posted links to every song. after listening, i wasn't really convinced on whether i should get it or not, idk it didn't really grab me as much as i thought it would. eventually i was like "what the hell?" and got the actual thing. well i guess it was that i had the album or cause i gave it a second listen, but it really opened my eyes and i really saw what made people love Radiohead so much. so yeah, Excellent for me. plus i may be in the minority for saying this, but my favorite song from it is Airbag, loved it the first time i heard it.

Voted average. It's a decent album by a really overrated band. One of my favs from the band. Nothing too special though.
