Okay, then I would prefer for you to listen to a Psychedelic Black Metal album instead, which would be Hail Spirit Noir's Oi Magoi, which I assume you haven't heard yet. Here's its bandcamp page.

Yes.

Title: In Rainbows
Artiste: Radiohead
Genre: Alt-Rock
Familiarity: Almost zero

Track 1 Yeah, it's ok. Nothing terribly special. Not sure I'm a fan of this guy's voice. Will reserve judgement till I've heard a few more tracks.
Track 2(Love) Bit more of a hard rock feel to this; guitars are more prominent. Much better. Lot of energy to it and I like the way it's put together.
Track 3(Love) This one is a slower, lazier track with a kind of blues feel to it, nice bass and a sort of low wailing vocal. Reminds me of Coldplay. Well, it does. Ooh! Sounds like an orchestra? Really like this.
Track 4(Love) Oh now this one I REALLY like! Probably my favourite so far.
Track 5(Love) Like the sort of doomy, ominous piano, organ or synth here, very bassy. Percussion is cool too. Yeah, just gets better as it goes along.
Track 6(Love) Pastoral, acoustic with some strings? Love this.
Track 7(Love) The beat on this is great, and the guitar is magical. I've got used to Yorke's voice now.
Track 8(Love) Nice laidback feel to this. Love the guitar and the effects.
Track 9(Love) More uptempo, great rhythm. Like this a lot.
Track 10(Love) Soft acoustic piano, great closer.

End result: From how this started I really thought I was not going to be into it, but it quickly improved and I have to say now, this being my first taste of Radiohead, I really do like what I've heard.

So, Love or Hate? This is a Love.

Chances of a full review: 7/10

That's not my fav Radiohead album, but it's definately a really good one. When recs open back up I'll have to give you another Radiohead to listen to.

How about you give him one album, and I'll give him another? I was thinking The Bends, and maybe you could do Hail To The Thief? Then we'll move to Amnesiac and OK Computer, and then give him Kid A?

Kind of a weird order. I'd give him Bends and OK Computer, then move on to the weird mid-2000s albums they did

When it opens back up why not.

Eh I think The Bends is really mediocre, and I don't think that the 2000's stuff is that much weirder tbh.

I know a lot of people that think it's their best album, and at the very least I think it's the one Trollheart would identify with the most

That's true, the rock vibe would probably be more for him I suppose.
