Radiohead

coming to a syndicate near you.

Dude! I need to check out more Radiohead. Thanks for the reminder.

[TheFloyd73]

I'm in.

I saw them last week in Pittsburgh and it was incredible. Setlist spanned their career, lots of surprises (Spectre! Street Spirit!) and the production design might be the best I’ve ever seen. Highly recommend their show if they swing by your neck of the woods.

My uncle just saw them the other day in Boston. He texted me some updates so I could experience it vicariously/be jealous. I need to see them one of these days, but I'm broke.

I also need to resume production on this game. MP & I got most of the framework in place and then became busy.

I made this post 1.5 years ago. Since then, Radiohead is easily one of my top 5 favorite bands.

[Epignosis]

I only have two albums.

I very much like OK Computer.

I don't like Kid A.

I'd recommend In Rainbows next, if you are interested. It's more similar to OK Computer than Kid A. Kid A took a while to grow on me and even now I'm not as crazy about it as most fans. There are some solid tunes on there though.

The Bends is an interesting album to check out as well. It's their intermediate stage after Creep but before OK Computer.

"Creep" is all right.

Posting the music video to "Paranoid Android" in case some of you younger guys never saw this shit:

the video in the first post features a track from in rainbows.

And for fun, my favorite music video is The Wicker Man Burn the Witch.

In Rainbows. I think it was the fourth one I listened to, but became my favorite immediately.

[JaggedJimmyJay]

I didn't like Kid A very much for the first couple years of Radiohead listening, but it eventually became my favorite and remains as such. They all have their appeal. I think I like Hail to the Thief the least.

[Sloonei]

Hail to the Thief has There There. No other album has There There.

I actually agree ... It’s heresy but I would rather listen to Pablo Honey (which is good and has some actually-really-good-songs like “You”) than King of Limbs (which is just okay) or HttT (which has some amazing songs but is mostly a badly-sequenced, overlong bore).

I strongly co-sign In Rainbows and then The Bends if you really like OK Computer, but their latest, A Moon Shaped Pool, is also more rock-oriented (well, by Radiohead’s standards) and right up there with the best of their output.

[Sloonei]

The second half of King of Limbs is one of the best stretches of songs on any Radiohead album.
I'd put A Moon Shaped Pool third on my list behind just OK Computer and In Rainbows. I loved it right away and it never let go.
Hail to the Thief is their least consistent album, but There There is on my shortlist for best songs ever, any artist. Wolf at the Door is also a top tier Radiohead tune.

There There, Where I End And You Begin, Sit Down Stand Up, and The Gloaming are all top-notch, the rest is meh.

I have a really hard time ranking their albums though. Kid A, In Rainbows, A Moon Shaped Pool are probably top 3 I guess

[ColinIsCool]

I don’t like The Gloaming at all. Super aimless. But Myxomatosis is a jam
