Honestly, this might be Radiohead's best album
>>
and after re-listening to this one today, this is easily their most overlooked/underrated
>>
I don't know about that but definitely a contender for my favorite
>>
>>70935200
Sad!
>>
>>70935200
top 3 easily
>>
>>70935797
1. In Rainbows
2. A Moon Shaped Pool
3. Kid A
>>
The Numbers is such a great song

I think most Radiohead fans are too much of fucking plebs to realize that. Theyre too busy sucking dildos to Daydreaming
>>
>>70935200
yeah, it's up there with amnesiac and kid a imo
>>
I just wanna say I really like King o Limbs
>>
The King of Limbs is better than this

1. In Rainbows
2. Kid A
3. The Bends
4. TKOL
5. AMSP
>>
>>70935200
>>70935294
Yess I honestly think Decks Dark is one of their best songs ever
>>
I love this album because it seems like purer Radiohead than most of the recent albums, it offers a lot of sound.
>>
Kid A. The answer is always KID A.
>>
my favorite radiohead album changes very often
say what you will about the overall quality of their work but damn they're consistent
>>

It would mean that it could be between 5/10 and 10/10
Its not saying much

Personally :

1. In Rainbows
2. Amnesiac

Decks Dark is the song of the decade so far

1. amsp

4,5,6,7,8,9. can't tell
10. the king of limbs
>>
Identikit and Decks Dark are easily in my top 5 of Radiohead's songs
>>
>>70935829
The Numbers is so clearly the worst song on AMSP. Way too overtly political and blunt in a way Radiohead almost never is. The fact they changed the title from Silent Spring to the Numbers just to fit their stupid alphabetical tracklist tells you a lot about where their head was at.

I like AMSP a lot but little things like that bug me. Also literally every piece of art created for AMSP other than the cover would have made a better cover than the one they chose.

Burn the Witch, Daydreaming, Decks Dark, Present Tense and True Love Waits are quite obviously some of their greatest recordings ever. Just wish there was a little more cohesion
>>
>>70935294
Hail to the Thief is my go to depression album.
>>
>>70935200
honestly u might be retarded
>>
>>70935294
It has as many great songs as any of them, but it's bloated as fuck. It could lose 5 songs and be perfect.
>>
>>70935200
"arpeggiated piano chords" the album
>>
Something about this album is distressingly boring to me.

Can't quite place it. It has some good songs on it, but I don't enjoy listening to it very much, and it isn't cause it's depressing, just something about it that really bores me, it's like I've heard every song on the album before in one shape or another.
>>
>>70940883
>TKOL worst
Confirmed shit taste.

1.OK Computer
2.Kid A
3.In Rainbows
4.Hail To The Thief
5.A Moon Shaped Pool
6.The Bends
7.Amnesiac
8.The King Of Limbs
9.Pablo Honey
>>
It's really good. Identikit and Present Tense are top tier Radiohead.

But the best thing about it is that it made me appreciate The King of Limbs even more.
>>
>>70941310
I feel the same way, most every song off the album has absolutely nothing interesting going on in it at all. Listen to Decks Dark and Desert Island Disc for example, Thom sounds incredibly bored while singing both of them, he just mumbles through the lyrics. There's nothing like the insane production on Airbag or the evolving structure of Paranoid Android. Nothing on the album tries to make the listener interested, it's all just background noise for sad tumblr girls. Burn the Witch is the only song on the album where the band give a good performance.
>tfw it's been 10 years since Radiohead have released a good record
>>
>>70936196
Me too. I feel like its one of the best their albums, but everyone says its shit, but i dont care.
>>
>>70935294
Mr. Yorke created an alrrnative track list for this album to cut down on the bloat.
>>
>>70935200
i dont think its their best but i would agree that it's one of their best

burn the witch, daydreaming, decks dark, ful stop, present tense, TLW are all god tier IMO

Undisputed #1 Radiohead Album.
>>
>>70935200
I was really really contemplating hard whether it was and I think it's a really close triumvirate of AMSP, In Rainbows, and OK Computer

1.OK computer

Amnesiac

AMSP

TKOL

The Bends

I never liked the Bends.
>>
i find it pretty shocking that anyone would freely admit to being such an underage pleb that they'd rank AMSP over Kid A, In Rainbows, OKC or even Amnesiac or The Bends

AMSP is literally 'I'm 16 and I heard this band is good: the album'
>>
>>70936196
>>70941503
its better than AMSP desu
>>
>>70935200
absolutely not, not even in radiohead's top 5.
>>
>>70935294
If it weren't for the bloatyness and the whole "we're going to save the world with rock 'n' roll music" vibe this thing gave off, then sure. I'd argue The Bends is underrated (by the fanbase, certainly not critically) due to it being their most accessible album.
>>
>>70942572
Objectively true.
Guarantee AMSP will be right up there in 2-5 years. Another masterpiece how do they do it

Amnesiac and TKOL are great but this is REALLY GOOD

Fast-Track is probably in my top 3 favorite RH songs
>>
>>70935294
If you scrapped a few tracks, it would be their best.
>>70942472
It's missing some great tracks and doesn't start with 2+2=5. it's kinda shit.
>>
>>70944240
Did you even listen to HTTT? Half of it is electronic. It's almost a perfect blend from Kid A and OK Computer but they pumped it out in 2 weeks so that's why it's unpolished. Legit could've been their best album if they sequenced it right and cut like 3 tracks. And The Bends is their most sound consistent album which makes it accessible. Some low points but Fake Plastic Trees, Planet Telex and Street Spirit are God tier
>>
>>70942886
if you listened to those album 1 billion times you'll grow tired of them too Mr.old fag patrician mid life crisis
>>
>>70944302
There There is perfect opener tho. 2+2=5 is a good second half start or 3rd after The Gloaming
>>
>>70944306
>they pumped it out in 2 weeks so that's why it's unpolished
Note that they had already been rehearsing/writing and even touring these songs long before they recorded it, so this is misdirection

Otherwise I agree. It's essentially the live-band version of Radiohead playing the Kid A/Amnesiac version of Radiohead.
>>70944336
2+2 starts with literally the first thing ever recorded at the start of the sessions. It's the only logical beginning.
>>
>>70935829
you can suck my fuckin nuts off, Daydreaming's one of the best songs they've made
>>
>>70944306
That doesn't make the lyrics any less cringe, Sit Down, Stand Up seriously sounds like it'd fit on the Shadow the Hedgehog soundtrack. I'm not going to deny there are some brilliant songs on it e.g. Scatterbrain and There, There - though I think musing over what could have been doesn't make it much better if at all.
>>
>>70944400
>That doesn't make the lyrics any less cringe
Any less than any other radiohead albums?

You should sit down.
>>
>>70944363
It drags the album down almost immediately

The album art’s big white space, whilst a little unappealing visually, creates feelings of loss and emptiness two of the albums major themes; I don't think the rest of the art produced for this release does this to the same effect.

Ariana Grande and Weezer released a better album in 2016 than AMSP. Incredibly embarrassing.

Kid A, AMSP and Amnesiac are definitely the top 3 for me, with the difference AMSP has substance, the others can only be judged subjectively.

One of their worst IMO

Why does everyone hate The King of Limbs?

AMSP is their only album with mature lyrics.

It just feels really quiet compared to the rest of their albums.

I don't listen really listen to it for that reason, you have to be in a very specific mood for it.

It feels more like "Radiohead: the musical" than an actual, coherent piece like OK computer and The Bends.

Honestly, just take the alternative tracklist Thom made, move 2+2=5 to right after Gloaming, take out the part where the amp is being plugged in, and bam it's their second best album. (Optional move: add I Will followed by Punch Up after Scatterbrain)

By that you mean the closer it is to being #1, or the closer it is to being the worst?

And no, the Bends is a great album.
>>
>>70935200
Nah, all their shit except Kid A and Amnesiac sound like shitty Beatles rip off. Kid A and Amnesiac are great though. TKOL is neither, it sounds like indie trash, and is their worst album.
>>
>>70939832
This is perfect
>>
>>70942472
Listened to it, honestly, while it does make the album WAY more cohesive, I just like 2 + 2 = 5 as an opener, even though There, There is a fantastic opener. Also, I'm a sucker for Backdrifts, and the fact that it's not on there is kinda disappointing, but I understand why.
