For any Radiohead listeners out there.....................Do you like there sound better now or b/f OK Computer?

WarWagon · 04-24-2004, 11:45 AM

Ooh, thats a tough call. I'd have to say I like their stuff a bit more now, though I'm pretty selective as to which of their songs I like out of all of their albums, not just any album in particular. I think their newer stuff has become more "listener friendly" for the people who aren't necessarily "into" Radiohead.

FoolThemAll · 04-24-2004, 02:46 PM

Hmm. I think their best three albums are The Bends, OK Computer, and Kid A, but I'm not sure how I'd rank them. I'm tempted to say Kid A, but it's got some real junk in the title track and "Treefingers", and the other two don't really have any filler (edit: besides fitter happier). I'll say the Bends. Hail to the Thief would be fourth, Amnesiac fifth, and Pablo Honey sixth.

I guess my vote's for now, since you imply OKC is included in 'now'. 2-1.

saut · 04-24-2004, 07:50 PM

For me, it's:

OK Computer
Kid A
The Bends
HTTF
Amnesiac
Pablo Honey

mercury-hg · 04-24-2004, 08:08 PM

no interest in the newer stuff, really like the bends and some of OK computer and pablo honey

SAM821 · 04-24-2004, 08:10 PM

Very hard to choose from... I made 2 CD's with a bunch of my favorite songs from all their albums, and that makes me happy... though I REALLY like Hail to the Thief...

Jadey · 04-24-2004, 09:30 PM

My favorite 2 albums are The Bends and OK Computer, and I absolutley love a couple songs from Pablo Honey. So I'd have to say the Pre-OK stuff is my favorite.

redcigar · 04-25-2004, 07:47 AM

My favorite album is the Bends but I'd have to say that there last three albums where awesome. Therefore I go with the newer stuff.

No Radiohead songs will be on a car ad thats for sure!

anleja · 04-25-2004, 08:31 AM

I like all the albums I've heard of theirs (never heard Pablo Honey of Amnesiac) but I think OK Computer is amazing in the way the best Pink Floyd albums are amazing, through and through. It has everything I could ever want in an album. Climb up the Walls is such an awesomly creepy-sounding song.

MAn, I wish my copy didn't skip. Lots of times I'll be listening to a cd with some friends, and when I say something like "this part coming up is sweet" that part will skip.

maximusveritas · 04-25-2004, 02:38 PM

I like almost everything they've done, though I think the Bends is their best album, start to finish.

Derwood · 04-26-2004, 06:17 AM

I'm not sure why everyone is so down on Amnesiac. That album is great.

I just can't compare the albums that well I guess. It's like comparing "Hard Days Night" to "Abbey Road". Same band, different place in their careers.

phlox · 04-26-2004, 09:00 AM

Amnesiac is my favorite Radiohead album. I thought Hail to the Thief was boring in comparison. Although 'Sail to the Moon' is sweet.

redcigar · 04-27-2004, 04:09 PM

It's amazing listening to allot of their music and wondering what the heck is that sound. Then when you actually see them live they pull those same sounds off. Definately one of the best live acts out right now.

Brayl · 04-27-2004, 08:28 PM

i like all Radiohead although i have to agree with phlox that amnesiac is their best to date. seeing how they've progressed i wouldn't be surprised if something comes along soon that's even better.

Tempboy · 05-02-2004, 08:22 PM

OKC is the only album I've ever listened to where I've loved every single one of the songs..

No album, Radiohead or otherwise, will ever take its place

Jadedfox · 05-03-2004, 06:01 AM

I like their older stuff the most. "You" off Pablo Honey is their best song ever in my opinion.

I sort of gave up on radiohead after OK Computer. They say there's a fine line between genius and insanity and I think Thom Yorke crossed it after OK Computer

redcigar · 05-03-2004, 03:42 PM

I agree that Thom has lost him marbles but I think the new stuff is just as genious. Very open ended and unreal live.

Anybody here the Com Lag EP yet? Pretty good mixes of HTTT

jvwgtr · 05-05-2004, 07:14 AM

I like the insane stuff...Amnesiac is my absolute favorite, with Kid A a close second.
I thought Hail to the Thief was boring in comparison, too, on first listening, but I like it more each time I listen to it.

braindamage351 · 05-26-2004, 05:58 PM

After playing all of their CDs to death:
OK Computer: 10/10. I love every song. Even fitter happier fits. A masterpiece.

Kid A: 10/10. I love every song. A masterpiece.

The Bends: 8/10. It has some great songs, but drags like hell at times.

Amnesiac: 9/10. Very hit or miss. Some of it was mediocre, but the good was really, really good.

HtTT: 9.5/10. Great album. A great mix of Kid A/Amnesiac and OK Computer. Can't get 10/10 because "A Punchup At the Wedding" goes nowhere.
