Radiohead
RedLion:
OK Computer borders on being a masterpiece and was one of the best albums of the 90s. I love Kid A too, but sometimes on that album it seems like they're trying too hard to be experimental and unique. In Rainbows took me a long time to get into, actually. The first 3 times I listened to the album, I just thought it was crap. It was actually when I was on a 5 hour train ride through the countryside of Tuscany that I first really started to enjoy it, and it now rivals OK Computer for my favorite album among them.

Because that would be my favourite.
Because Radiohead are fucking awful.

My hero.

I guess I don't see the point in coming in here if you hate the band.

Khar should not be anyone's hero. Underneath that sleek, everything-that's-not-metal-hating exterior is a dirty transvestite hobo Lord. Khar is just Khar and we'd best leave it at that.

He probably doesn't see the point of 20 Radiohead fans talking about how much they like Radiohead either, I personally don't see the point in you saying you don't see the point in him coming in here if he hates the band. Quite frankly I'm only saying this because NOBODY SEES THE POINT IN ANYTHING.
PS I voted for The Bends because despite the fact that it is probably the most adolescently themed album, lyrically, it is also the album that has held up for me the best through to my mid 20s. I grew tired of most of the songs on the other albums. Each album has a few gems. OK Computer has Electioneering and Lucky, Kid A has The National Anthem and Idioteque, Amnesiac has Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box and Hail to the Thief has There There, Go To Sleep, and Mixamatosis, but if you asked me to listen to any of these albums I would probably skip at least half the tracks. Hail to the Thief probably fares the best out of them but its a more recent album and I never really played it to death and obsessed over it the way I did their earlier stuff so its fresher and less worn out in my mind. By this standard in another five years I am probably going to love In Rainbows because I have had trouble giving a shit about that album at all despite the fact that it was a reasonably solid effort, but The Bends is the only album I can really just sit down and play like a record, even though I'd class the songs I listed here from other albums as being better than any individual track on The Bends.
