Radiohead's worst album. It is scattershot as hell, with

better than PH, end of discussion

>>73842965
gonna have to agree with this

you might not ""enjoy"" it as much but it's well known that PH is the worst Radiohead album

>>73842986
PH is catchy and breezy to listen to tho. HTTT is just tedious

>>73842930
agreed anon

>>73842930
sounds like you had a brain buzz. not all birds migrate.

>>73842930
I actually like this album, not every track is good, sure, but there's a lot to like.
Albums like Kid A, OK Computer and In Rainbows completely destroy HTTT, but still a fun album

good beginning, good ending. end of story.

>>73842930
myxomatosis is fucking good and HTTT is not worse than Pablo Honey. It's better than the bends too

>>73844120
This.

You just have to rearrenge the songs and leave the album to 10, 12 as much tracks.

>>73842930
i think it's good but i wouldn't die defending it... or any album for that matter...

god bless, sending my well wishes from US

It's a great album, but it was their first release that didn't really progress their sound, it just combined various elements from past albums to make great songs. Nothing wrong with that. IMO that's also what AMSP is for the most part.

amsp pushes the envelope because they use orchestra and choir... and incorporates elements of break up for the first time since bends... thank you

Take away I Will and Scatterbrain and it flows much better. I agree that an alternate track list would help but I'm too lazy to think of one right now.

It definitely has more of a unique sound than HTTT. I don't think "break up" lyrics are anything special though. Also, they used orchestra and choir in the past as well. But stuff like Burn the Witch, Ful Stop and Present Tense are pretty unique for Radiohead I will admit

I think HTTT had some unique sounding stuff a well, like Backdrifts and The Gloaming but after Thom started releasing solo material it's pretty obvious in hindsight that those tracks are like precursors to his solo work.

Still better than TKOL and AMSP

I think it's their best personally and I actually like every song on it. I think the genre exploration on display is a bit scattershot but I find the mood to be consistently dreary and oppressive as all hell. Sail to the Moon is the closest thing to optimism towards anything good ever happening on the album. It's a nice album to just be miserable as fuck to, and as much of a downer as Radiohead's music usually is I think this one's the biggest downer of the lot.

Radiohead more or less stopped making stylistic advancements as a band after Amnesiac and have only really refined their approach ever since. That said, AMSP definitely displays their sharpest ear for composition to date, the pacing and progression on it is incredibly smooth compared to anything else they've done.

>the they perfected their sound on AMSP and now they have literally nowhere to go

not that I'm complaining AMSP was everything I wanted and more
