Anyway, an Amnesiac vs Kid A argument is totally out of context here, but I have to point out that Amnesiac contains very little unchartered territory that was not on Kid A (and why should it? see above), so why should Hail To The Thief get any more criticism than Amnesiac for not being exactly earth shatteringly innovative?
Uh, Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors doesn't cover new material? Life In A Glass House? Amnesiac is a collection of songs that weren't written to fit in with Kid A so were put on a seperate follow-up. It sounds nothing like Kid A (A few exceptions). Can you imagine all but 2 or 3 Amnesiac songs in the context of Kid A?
