Radiohead : The Best Of

Okay the politics of this album aside Radiohead is one of those bands best experienced in album form, not compilation form. However I can't honestly rate an album with Exit Music (For a Film), Knives Out, The National Anthem, Lucky, There There, Idioteque, How to Disappear Completely, okay you know what fuck it. If you put on The Tourist, Optimistic, Life in a Glasshouse, and just more Amnesiac in general all my favorite Radiohead songs would be on here. So honestly how can I rate this poorly?
It's only fault is some of the tracks are weaker than others and it's lack of cohesion. So counting in those I give it a very good. It's such a clumsy compilation and I have a hard time listening to something that's 30 songs regardless of who it is. |
what about cohesion matter than much to you?
|
Huh?
|
He's saying cohesion is overrated.
|
Well whatever, I lack my albums to flow it helps me enjoy them more. This doesn't at all. You go from a really amazing track to a subpar one (for Radiohead) or two that are just completely different styles plus 30 songs is alot to listen to which doesn't help.

I'll be interested to see how this sells. I'd expect that by now most people who have heard of Radiohead would have already made up their minds as to whether or not they want to buy an album - I'd be surprised if they had that big a casual audience. Mind you, EMI are releasing it in order to burn their bridges.
Perhaps it will sell to people who bought The Bends or OK Computer out of curiousity, didn't quite get the appeal but liked a few songs and want to give the band another chance. Doubtless the sales figures will confound me. |
