For "Love or Hate?" dumbo. Not all my life! :D

Damn you Troll. Always fucking right.

Ah, the addition of just one comma and a question mark could make my life seem so fulfilled! Sadly, it's just a fantasy....

For me it's a very haunting album. It manages to make the electronic elements at play emotional and powerful, but never artificial. Just listen to the disparate lullaby of the title track, sort of beautifully unsettling.

At the end of the day, it's a pop rock album. It sold over a million copies, and yet we have elements of free jazz as we get a trumpet explosion at the end of The National Anthem, we have odd time signatures, we have glitch-inspired IDM fused with rock that samples Paul Lanksy and which speaks of the end of the world in Idioteque, we have an affecting and powerful ballad in How to Disappear Completely and we have a subtle ambient piece in Tree Fingers.

It's got to be one of the most expansive, weird, divergent yet cohesive pop albums ever created. But more than all of that, it simply works as a whole on some level, the electronic features always enhancing the rock music it is founded upon. It might not be post-rock per se, but it certainly laid a groundwork for a very welcome change in mainstream rock.

LOL Trolldalf's at it again

All right, this is my first experience of it as I said, but to quote one of the guys out of "Father Ted", it bored the arse off me. After In Rainbows, and considering this is supposed to be one of their crowning achievements, I pretty much hated it.

So I'm afraid I'm no use to you, Frown, it just did nothing for me. Whiny singing, synth and electronic drumming, no interest till the fourth track and then only barely, and free effing jazz? Not for me.

I really like Kid A, but regardless I think everyone would've predicted you wouldn't like that one and you probably wouldn't be huge on Hail to the Thief, Amnesiac, or King of Limbs either. The Bends and OK Computer are definitely albums you could and likely will enjoy though

Never got Kid A either. Would take In Rainbows over it any day. Great example of What am I missing"?

The White Album

• I'm not really sure why out of all the Beatles albums, this one is considered "the classic". I've found more enjyoment out of Sgt. Pepper than I did with this one.
• I feel like this being a double album really took away from my enjoyment. Way too long of an album for a comfortable listen.

If anyone feels like they can enlighten me with why this album is "so good", i'd love to know. I've actually talked about this before in one of my journals about albums that I don't really find that great, so i'm glad I can bring it up again.

Because of this song alone
