I think I would still have the same feelings towards each album no matter which order I play them so as long as you were going to listen to them all anyway, it doesn't really matter which order in my view.
I would say that my preference between them would remain the same, but perhaps I'd be more lenient on the lesser album's faults, because of an established fondness for the artist. If I love an artist's work, I make more of an effort to see redeeming factors in their failures, whereas if I established an album as a failure before all else, I'm inclined to continue to be unfair to it.

I've been listening to Ok Computer on and off, haven't been able to get through the whole album yet, but i'm still not seeing any reason to do that. The vocalist if anything, is very bland. The musicianship is great though.

As I said at first, I couldn't stomach a full album due to the biased opinion I already had. I was under the impression that I was supposed to hear something super amazing, and upon going into the album(s), I was severely disappointed. It's hard to stomach a full album with that much bias.

I completely understand, I've been through the same many times before, I just find the fact that someone would consider Thom Yorke to be a bland vocalist hard to fathom.

To be fair, I will definitely try to listen to them again. It's just when I feel like i'm going to hear something amazing, I want to hear something amazing. Which i'm sure Thom Yorke has a great voice, I just wasn't hearing it at that time.

Radiohead get better the more you listen. They're probably the one band I've had the hardest time trying to get into, but it's very rewarding.
