I am brought to my knees. Then comes the rest of the album, and I'm still on my knees, only this time by the toilet puking up.

Yeah I was on my knees too, with a gun at my head.

Christ, and I thought I was close minded when it came to Radiohead. I had no idea people felt that OKC was the ONLY good thing that they did.

[Urban Hat€monger ?]

I'm kind of indifferent to the whole Kid A . OK Computer comparisons.

Nothing on OK Computer comes anywhere near being as good as A National Anthem.

But on the other hand nothing on OK Computer comes close to being mind numbingly boringly awful as Treefingers. Which is saying something for an album that includes Fitter Happier.

Those songs are more meant to be a part of the album as a whole and fit the concept they are trying to go for. Yes, if you put on either of those songs out of the blue, they suck, but in the context of the album they work.

I strongly prefer the live version to the studio version, but you have to admit the bass is hypnotic.

Who says I wasn't referring to them in the context of the album ?
