The Official Radiohead Thread

Kid A is my favourite. Each album is great in it's own right, it's just Kid A was the fist 'head album I really got into. The ambient influences on tracks like "Kid A" and "Treefingers" a la Aphex Twin, whom the band cited as an influence for the album, were what drew me in.

****ing love it!!

Aint Kid A a wonderful album? Its gotta be getting close to ten years old soon, but it encapsulates a whole decade of sounds for my ears... and it most definitely led me further down the path towards enjoying more electronic music...

I like that one song they did...I think it's called Weirdo or Creep or something. Really good.

sleepy jack · 09-01-2009, 04:46 PM

Oh wait. It's called Stairway to Heaven and it's by Led Zeppelin. Nevermind.

Although I love every one of their albums for different reasons I think I still have to say the bends is my favorite. However I rather enjoyed the direction they went with In Rainbows. That is the beauty of them their albums always sound completely different but you always know its them.

Yeah The Bends is still my favourite. It's probably not their most consistant album but it had some of their best songs in Fake Plastic Trees, Hight And Dry, Bones, Street Spirit and Just. OK Computer is my 2nd choice.

I'm all for the newer stuff over the older... so much more interesting instrumentation, unusual, spacey sounds, scattery rhythyms... Don't get me wrong, I love The Bends and think its great... but I am all for spreading their musical territory further...
