I'm afraid to listen to it. Is it really that bad?

It is pretty bad. At least compared to everything else they've done.

It's not absolutely unlistenable, but it is sometimes hard to believe that the same group of people who made Kid A made this.

because it's radiohead

change the name to 'tellyface' and you have pre good britpop

Listen to the On a Friday demos first, before they were called Radiohead. Now THAT'S good music

No it's fine. It has some pretty good songs like "You" "Stop Whispering" and "Lurgee"

If you've listened to the rest of Radiohead's catalog, then it can be a little cringey in places. Some of the songs are straight up juvenile in terms of lyrical value. The sound itself is merely reflective of the grunge movement of the time.

It's no Kid A, but it's not terrible either.

Its badness is dramatically overstated here. It's just mediocre and judged unfairly against the rest of their catalogue.

It's worth it for Blow Out at least.

It's fine. It just sounds bad in comparison to their other work, which it sounds nothing like. It's just sort of generic alt rock.

If you don't listen to blow out you are honestly missing out on a great RH song
