Sadly. I'm a Kid A/HTTT fanboy so it was always going to disappoint me, there's just that lack of wanting to experiment with each song.

When you compare In Rainbows to what Radiohead did with albums like Kid A and Ok Computer it's really hard not to see In Rainbows as a bit of a let down. Not that the songs were bad, but they didn't do anything innovative or really that new with it. I like it alot more after seeing it preformed live though

Seriously, do I even need, too? The songs sandwiched in the middle are not up to par/stand out to me in many ways. The fact that I'm having trouble recalling how a few tracks even go speaks a bit loudly, too. In Rainbows doesn't reach out and grab me like most Radiohead albums do. I still enjoy a listen now and then but it's not as enticing as their pervious work.

To each his own or her own. I think it's their best. But youve seen them live and have all their albums so I guess you know more about them than me. =\

I'm hardly an expert. You like what you like.. that's all that matters.
