Such vibes while I was driving on a highway but nowhere near as epic as the classic older Radiohead still good just different 6.5/10 overall brought down by the fact that almost none of it stood out as amazing or really fun to listen to a part from a couple small moments
This album was weird. It feels like it wanted to be a silent hill ost esqe experience, experimental selection, and a standard album all at once. I'd be listening to a very interesting track only for the song to warp to something less engaging when vocals came in for example. It felt confused.
A little too experimental for me. Didn’t feel as cohesive as their other stuff.
I'm gonna say it. I don't understand Radiohead. Sure it's music, but I don't think it's so groundbreaking. Maybe I just wasn't in the scene at the time.
The heights propped this up certainly. Perhaps a couple of my latter Day Radiohead favorite tunes? Overall, it runs quickly, but is inconsistent compared to my favorite albums of theirs.
Very experimental
Sad boi music but in a dream fugue state. Fav songs knvies out and morning bell
Milan beats Real Madrid 3:1. I get two Radiohead albums in a span of a week. Life is great, man.
I just don't see what's so great about Radiohead. It's an okay enough album. That's about it.
Not the best Radiohead album, kinda blunt really.
Er zijn imo twee Radiohead albums die enorm overroepen zijn: In Rainbows en deze. Tom Yorke heeft een mooie stem, maar klinkt ook wel vaak zagerig, zoals in dit album. 2.5
I got bored with it, not my cup of tea
Radiohead are a genuine puzzle for me. For years, I didn’t pay them much attention, and then somehow In Rainbows made its way onto my list of favorite albums. And yet, here I am again with Amnesiac, once more teetering on the fence, caught between admiration and bewilderment. Listening to Amnesiac continues this paradox. There’s Thom Yorke’s voice—sometimes haunting, sometimes droning, leaving me unsure whether it’s something beautiful or just flat. And the music itself keeps me guessing: at times, it feels deeply inventive, as though Radiohead are tapping into something profound. Other times, I wonder if it’s simply strange for the sake of being strange, with Yorke and the band leaning hard into weirdness without a clear purpose. I’m not sure if Radiohead are a “Marmite” band for most listeners, but they certainly are for me. With Amnesiac, I can’t quite land on either side; it’s like an album that deserves both a 1/5 and a 5/5 simultaneously. Tracks like Pyramid Song stand out, intriguing in their atmosphere and elusive lyrics. Yet for each song I connect with, there’s another that feels like it’s challenging me to try harder than I’d like to. Overall, Amnesiac is complex, weird, and constantly contradictory—maybe that’s exactly what makes it so fascinating. Standout track: Pyramid Song. Score: 3/5 (but somehow, also a 1/5 and a 5/5).
This album feels like walking through fog. It’s layered and strange, sometimes quiet, sometimes rough around the edges. Think of Aphex Twin’s softer moments, but with a bit more rawness. There’s something messy yet deliberate here, like each track’s a puzzle missing pieces. The whole thing is a bit eerie.
Not as high on this as I am on most Radiohead albums. This is probably their most difficult release, clearly a companion to Kid A but more muted and mysterious than that already kinda challenging album. The songs don’t get all the way there for me, but it’s still an interesting listen. Best song: Knives Out
This is the second Radiohead album I've gotten, after Hail to the Thief, and it is quite similar. A lot of moody wailing, but they make it work quite well. I don't know if this album is worse than the previous one or if I am just getting a little bored of their sound, but I didn't enjoy it quite as much.
Listened on my way to work. Forgot it by the time I finished my coffee.
Fitting with the title of this album, I don't really remember my opinions on this one.
3.5
Radiohead is a hit or miss for me and they always will be. This album had more hits than misses for me although at times it became a bit monotonous to listen to which is why I can’t rate it higher than a 3 for me
I liked this. I’m not a big Radiohead fan, their 2nd and 4rd albums are great, then I lost track of their career. I recognised the 2 singles, which were great, the rest was a bit of a mixed bag of good and not so good. If I’d got into this when it was released, then I’d probably be raving about it. But I didn’t and I’m not. But it’s still worth a 3 star score.
Pretty overrated
el album de los ruiditos falopa
meh
Not my favourite by Radiohead
nem rossz ez, de nem látod hogy megint elővenném magamtól valaha 🤷
I was never much of a fan of Radiohead, though I guess I'll give this one 3 stars out of recognition of its denseness. It seems a shame for me to rate this as high as the Duran Duran album. BTW I hope you boys noticed we've gotten through 200 albums so far. :)
I love Radiohead, but this is my least favorite of their albums on this list. Still a good listen, just not to the level of their better efforts.
Not bad. A little maudlin and melancholy. Definitely not everyday listening for me.
This shit is ass but Thom Yorke is my lil twink boy so I can't give him too bad of a rating
Solid 3.5 stars,, honestly great album but it gets held back a bit in that its really just B sides from Kid A
Fav: Pyramid Song Least Fav: Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors This album is something I’ve always considered on the weaker side of Radiohead’s discography. I respect the experimental but it does not always work when you’ve got songs like Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors. Some of the better songs like Pyramid Song and Knives Out show that this album has quality when it wants to.
I've listened to a lot of Radiohead in my life and never listened to this album fully through. There's a good reason it turns out. Definitely the least enjoyable Radiohead album I've listened to. Not terrible but how did this make it on the list??
Creative crunchy sounds, meters, the instrumentation sometimes lush, often spare. Precious whiney vocals of a depressed person who thinks very highly of himself. Can't take too much of this listening vibe, but heard all tracks.
When this first came out I liked it a lot more than Kid A which I hated at the time but years of listening and perspective have changed my mind on Kid A and left me to thinking on relisten that this is just an ok Radiohead album which is still quite good but they have a lot better albums before and after. Pyramid Song, Knives Out, Morning Bell & I Might Be Wrong are all great tracks, the album is worth a listen but probably doesn't need to be on the list.
Good listen but not their best
Teilweise zu "elektronisch"
Not really for me, enjoy their earlier work more , Pyramid song is a banger though.
So depressing! Like musically it's very well crafted but the vibe was really hard for me to get over. I'll have to give it another listen some day
Dreary, melancholic, eerie, dreamy. Some fun instrumental moments. Felt like the end of a sad movie
Love=hate.
Do respect the experimentation although I found it a bit patchy, started strong but there were a few too many slow ones near the end that got boring for me after a while. Also not really a fan of the vocals (bit whiny) Seems like it would grow on me after more listens
Never listened to Radiohead in detail before, album was above expectations, will listen again
Not their best
This album of theirs never stood out to me.
Good to go back to an earlier album. Besides the singles I hadn’t listened to a full album other than In Rainbows (which is one of my faves).
Chill listen, some interesting sounds here. 3.5/5
Had the AirPods in on noise cancellation so this was a very interesting listen…my ears didn’t know what was going on at times! The layering and unique sounds are very cool. Rating this is tough. I love how unique this sounds and applaud the creativity. In the right settings I enjoy this but as a whole album of songs I was to listen to often, I’m just not sure this does it for me. Would you even consider every track a song?
Anstrengend zu hören 3/5
Had some pretty weird and harsh instrumentation in there. Feels like they took regular songs and clobbered it with a layer of avantgarde. Quite enjoyable.
More Radiohead from this collection--not surprising, but it definitely feels like 6 albums by *any* band is about 3-4 too many (to me). Not a bad Radiohead album, but also not all *that* different from others in this collection, and I'm not a big fan of their sound, so it's hard to get too excited. Although I did enjoy the more Chemical-Brothers-style turn on some tracks in this album, and I particularly enjoyed the opening track with its very reasonable refrain ("Packt like sardines in a crushd tin box"), and "Pulk/Pull revolving doors". I was kind of disappointed (unreasonably so, I suspect) that the videos on this album weren't nearly as interesting as "Paranoid Android" from "OK Computer", although I'll make an exception for "Knives out", which while not all that great a song has a video that is both unsettling and impossible to look away from. The video for "Pyramid song" is kind of entertaining in a weird early 3D/VR way, and I'm not sure what to say about the experimental animation video for "Push pulk/spinning plates", other than that I understand why MTV wouldn't touch the video with a 10-foot pole; it's not every day that you get to see some weird centrifuge-like contraption with twin babies getting horribly disfigured.... Overall, I'd say they made the right choice not lumping these songs in with the "Kid A" album, but I'm also not sure this particular album belongs in this collection.
Ha, I listened to this, then forgot to come back and give it a rating. My computer would love this one.
Ik heb the Bends en OK Computer veel gedraaid vroeger. Eigenlijk alles wat daarna kwam, vond en vind ik te experimenteel eigenlijk. Ik heb dit album daarom nooit echt geluisterd, maar er zijn hordes fans juist van deze albums. Ik kan me het ergens wel voorstellen, want het zijn zeker minder doorsnee popliedjes. Wat Radiohead goed kan is een soort sfeer neerzetten, dat deden ze ook al op OK Computer. De hoge stem van Thom Yorke is iets wat je kan haten, maar hij zet het op dit album dus ook voornamelijk als extra instrument in, een extra laag van de muziek. Pyramid Song en Knives Out zijn de singles geworden, die ik niet herkende van naam, maar nu ik ze hoor ken ik ze wel. Heel filmisch. Radiohead is eigenlijk gewoon de perfecte 'exit music for a film'. Radiohead staat met minimaal 5 albums in de lijst en dat is uiteraard veel te veel. En toch vind ik het wel geinig om dit album een keer te luisteren, want ik heb het destijds helemaal links laten liggen. Zo krijgt het door deze lijst alsnog een kans. En ik vond het bij nader inzien best interessant om te luisteren. De filmische liedjes zijn een 4 waard, de elektronische reut een 2. Kom ik uit op een hele prima 3 gemiddeld.
It feels like another Radiohead album I'm supposed to like... And I mostly do, but sometimes I'd rather listen to The Bends, you know? Feels like Kid A outtakes, probably should have been saved for the retrospective deluxe edition release of that album.
Easy 3.5/5, I feel like this could be one to raise a half - full star after another listen or two.
3 radiohead
This was just ok for me. It was hard to understand the vocals on some songs , though instrument play was good. Almost felt like flashback to early 70’s music on some songs.
normally I enjoy some Radiohead but this album just didn't do it for me. felt a little scattered/unorganized. couple of the tracks were much better than the rest (I might be wrong & knives out). his vocals can easily veer into the whiny & they did a few times too many on this album. not the best by them.
1. zardinez - 1 2. pyramid - 2 3. pulk - 1 4. army - 2 5. uurong - 2.5 6. knivez - 2 7. amneziac - 1 8. dollarz - 1.5 9. bearz - 1.5 10. platez - 1.5 11. glazzhouze - 1
This album is pretty good, but is not one of my favorites of Radiohead's. It has some really good tracks, but also enough of what kind of feels like filler that I prefer to listen to this one in pieces as opposed to as a whole. 3.4/5
I am just not a Radiohead guy, this made me drowsy. C- I guess.
high points Almost too experimental for me tho Sax outro very nice
3.5 I liked it, didn’t love it. Would listen to it again though
Favs: "Pyramid Song", "You And Whose Army?", "I Might Be Wrong", "Life In a Glasshouse"
ganz schön experiementell, was muss man dafür alles geraucht haben
Some great tracks but find this to be a 'feeler' album. Can't rub shoulders with other great albums by Radiohead.
No matter how hard I try, I just can't get into Radiohead. Personal enjoyment 3/5 Relevance to this list: 4/5
this is good but it's not OK Computer or The Bends
Pyramid Song You And Whose Army? I Might Be Wrong Knives Out
Primera escucha de este LP. Amnesiac es apodado el "B-Sides de Kid A" por la comunidad, y este es un nombre muy acertado. No obstante, ello no debiese quitarle merito al valor de este trabajo por si solo. Nos encontramos ante un trabajo que, si bien brilla por la influencia de su predecesor, cuenta con algunos de los puntos más altos de la banda (destacando en especial a "Pyramid Song"). No obstante, canciones como "Hunting Bears" y "Like Spinning Plates" dan cuenta de una falta de rumbo en la creación de este trabajo que es difícil de evitar. En síntesis: Se trata de un álbum que brilla más por sus grandes aciertos que por su estructura. Contrario a lo que mencionan algunos nerds de internet, este es un trabajo tan disfrutable como recomendable. Sin embargo, viendo de lo que fueron capaces Thom y compañía me es imposible decir que se trata de uno de sus puntos más altos como banda. FAVTRAXS: Packt Like Sardines In a Crushd Tin Box, Pyramid Song, You And Whose Army, Morning Bell/Amnesiac, Life In a Glasshouse LEASTFAV: Hunting Bears 3.5/5
I never got into radiohead the way that people who like radiohead REALLY LIKE RADIOHEAD, but it wasn't a bad album.
Puede tener cosas buenas pero no ha hecho click conmigo... 3
bleh
Ok, a little circus-y
no no no no no no no no no
The album’s a bit of a mixed bag for me. It’s got great tracks like “Pyramid Song” and “Dollars and cents”. Others like “Morning Bell/Amnesiac” and “Knifes Out” however are kind of meh for me. I give the record a 7.5/10, not bad but it’s boring at certain parts.
Artsy, fey pretentious electronic music with vocals.
Weird b cuts apparently. Did not deserve to be on the list
Good album. Not their best, but a solid listen
Prefer their earlier stufg
Less accessible than even Kid A, but enjoyable nonetheless.
Radiohead is overrated. This isn't the bands best This isn't even the bands most experimental album. It's good and I do truly enjoy this album, it doesn't belong on this list though. 8/10 album 6/10 Radiohead album.
I am liking this album a bit more than Kid A. Still sort of melancholy and melodic. Pyramid Song has haunting lyrics, and an interesting beat. Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors is different, but not necessary my thing. Perhaps too abstract? Reminds me a bit of an art installation. You and Whose Army? is fine. A bit boring, but fine to listen to. Loved the different intro for I Might Be Wrong. Actually really enjoyed this song all the way through. Kind of an interesting country western vibe to the music, and good lyrics. Lengthy and different outro. Maybe my favorite song on this album. Knives Out has almost a lounge-y vibe. I'm so intrigued by the story behind these lyrics. Morning Bell was fine. Again, a bit boring, but nothing egregious. Dollars and Cents almost sounds sci fi-like. Hunting Bears was a nice instrumental song. Unsettling instrumentation in Like Spinning Plates. Life in a Glasshouse is very moody, and the lyrics are quite interesting and vivid to me.
Fist two tracks are bangers. Knives Out still sounds like an FM radio mainstay. The rest, honestly a bit corny in 2024. You and whose army hilarious for being the wussiest 'step up' song of all time.
6/10
Interessante Kompositionen.
Not their best
Actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Not my style but dark and moody and quite jarring. Would give it s 3.5 stars if I could
boring
It was okay?
is pretty good
The first few songs were a little too avant garde for me, even as a radiohead fan. The second half of the album I enjoyed a lot more, but not enough that I think I'll revisit this one any time soon.
I got in better with it on a second listen but still not their best.
Still don’t get this band. Just doesn’t do it for me even though I want to like this stuff. Not bad - i just don’t feel it.
Radiohead feels like a “if you get it you get it and if you don’t you don’t” band. And I don’t get it.
Still not the best of Radiohead, but deep locked in
Weird album in terms of Radiohead's discography. Kinda like Kraut Rock meets Radiohead.
Need more listening but fine, i think I'm not emo enough
Honestly very pretty, not my favorite Radiohead album but still pretty with an edge
The one Radiohead album I have never heard for some reason. It's like kid a but not quite as good
Extrem experimentelles und melacholisierendes Album. Macht es Spaß das Album zu hören ? No! Ist es großer Bullshit? No! Aber es sind nur wenige Songs die wirklich gefallen können z.B „it Might Be Wrong“ oder „Knives Out“. Man sieht die Anstrengung der Band in diesem Album aber leider wird daraus zu wenig Musik und zu viel Verkrampfung. Ganz schrecklich sind der vorletzte Song (Fehlexperiment) und der letzte Song (Jazz-Blues Cover).
Radiohead are obviously an incredible band, and I'm familiar with a lot of their output. This is a solid record overall, but has quite a few filler tracks in my view, so it fails to reach the giddy heights of OK Computer. Favourite tracks: Pyramid Song (honestly one of the best songs ever written, with the 4/4-but-sounds-mad time signature), Knives Out, Life In a Glasshouse.
Trippy and experimental. Had some notable highs, but some songs I didn't connect with as well. Definitely interested in giving it another listen sometime.
This album is frustrating. I've never really gotten into Radiohead in the past (listened to OK Computer, Kid A, and In Rainbows at least once each), but I figure the passage of some time since then and changing tastes has inclined me towards really appreciating their abilities. Almost every song has this brilliant and beautiful spirit behind the instruments, the synthesizers, the sounds, but often I feel like there's not any direction it goes other than that spirit. The album as a whole also kind of slogs it's way through, despite individual songs that will blow me away. Given the background of how this album is kind of like a B side to Kid A, it doesn't seem surprising this is the result. All of that in mind though, there's a lot I appreciate and connect with on this album, and it seems like their other albums were more directly inspired, and so I feel that the likelihood I'll connect with their big albums is higher.
I've listened to a few Radiohead albums, and easily gotten lost in the delicate framework given by Radiohead. It's never really fully gelled for me. I can see the craft and beauty though. It's a music for late night driving along darkened roads thinking profound thoughts. Interesting. Spiritual and engaging. Not quite 4 stars.
This was quite a mix of sounds and genres. I'm not really sure what to think about it. I didn't love or hate it; I think I was mostly confused by it.
After getting totally obsessed with Radiohead this year, this was still one of the albums I hadn't spent much time with. It was pretty decent but I feel like Radiohead albums need to simmer and be listened to many times before you can really appreciate them. I didn't like this one nearly as much as I like Kid A, OK Computer, and In Rainbows but it was still pretty good. Pyramid Song is incredible and definitely the star of the album.
For me Radiohead started with "Ok Computer" and ended with "Kid A". It was Karma Police and Paranoid Android that acted as my gateway drug to Radiohead. Ok Computer is the only Radiohead-album I own. Later I discovered Creep (from Pablo Honey) and Fake Plastic Trees (from The Bend). I remember one of my best friends trying to push Kid A on me, but somehow the album did'nt connect with me. I haven't really followed Radiohead since. I really enjoyed listening to Amnesia. Among my top tracks is "Pyramid Song" and "You and Whose Army?" which have theese old radiohead-vibes, where the mourning tone of the tracks just keeps lingering. The track "I Might Be Wrong" is also kinda cool. I've been listening alot to the Danish band Kashmir. And while I was listening to Amnesia it hit me, how heavy influenced Kashmir is from Radiohead. Kashmirs album "Zitilites" has crazy radiohead-vibes.
Do I….like a Radiohead album???? Ew, I hate this for me. But also, I’m a sucker for a drum machine and a groove, and there’s a lot of that here. When it’s back to our regularly-scheduled boring moan sessions, though, I’m out, and yeah, half this record is still that, and I hate it. But I like half a Radiohead album! There’s hope for me still!!
What a weird album. Very experimental but there were a few songs I did really enjoy. I’ve always wanted to get into Radiohead but I’m not sure this was the album for me to start off with.
3/5. I do enjoy most of the songs on here, and it has a nice mix of the rock and experimental. Plus the experimental stuff is actually enjoyable to listen to. I think Yorke's voice sounds a little weak on the album, but only because it kind of stays in the same range of energy on each song. A little sassy and sad at the same time. It's not a bad album but it does make me want to listen to other albums more. It's definitely a B-Sides album. Best Song: Pyramid Song, I Might BE Wrong, Life In a Glasshouse
I don't care what everyone else says about this album, you can't replace the vocals with a trump and suddenly just change the game. The vocals and style are a critical part of the sound and it blends great. I would like to see some more trumpet overall but I must say that three times a day. This album was pretty good. I prefer some of their other work but liked the listen.
Melancholic, pensive and dramatic. Driving music. Too sad boy for me.
I enjoyed listening to it but it's a bit... Boring.
Today I learned that Amnesiac was essentially a Kid A leftovers album. It makes a lot of sense too, as it has very similar atmosphere and instrumentation, particularly compared with the pre-Kid A Radiohead sound. It also explains why this is a bit of a loose and inconsistent record. In places it soars and touches the highs of its predecessors but it doesn’t feel as coherent or rewarding a listen.

Better than all hail the thief. More electronic. I get why people hate Thom's voice but like, c'mon, Radiohead is iconic.
Moody mild music, a bit boring and whiny. Stand-out: Dollars and Cents
Album was pretty out there. I’ve enjoyed some of the Radiohead albums, but this one was just a little too eccentric for me. Didn’t think it was bad, just a little much. 3.5/5 Probably won’t listen again
They bore me. Some great songs but I've never got into them and at this stage that boat has sailed
Nine Inch Nails is the flipside of this coin i feel. Its funny that all the songs i knew were my least favorite ones on this listen. Still not a Radiohead fan but some of this is interesting.
As a Radiohead fan, my relationship with their music is one of deep admiration, punctuated by moments of sheer awe at their brilliance. I love Thom Yorke's distinctive vocals, though I'll be the first to admit that delving into their music requires a certain frame of mind—a readiness to be immersed in their complex emotional and musical layers. "Amnesiac," while a notable entry in Radiohead's discography, doesn't quite ascend to the top of my list of favourite albums from the band. That's not to say "Amnesiac" is devoid of gems. "Pyramid Song" and "I Might Be Wrong" shine brightly. Those tracks serve as reminders of why Radiohead holds a special place in my heart, even if this particular album doesn't quite capture the entirety of my admiration like some of their other works. Interestingly, my affinity for Radiohead isn't anchored to the widely acclaimed "OK Computer"—an album many fans and critics regard as their magnum opus. To me, Radiohead's brilliance doesn't cluster around just one album; their most captivating tracks are scattered throughout all of their albums. Favourite Tracks: Pyramid Song, I Might Be Wrong
Not a radiohead fan
already listened to this one Kid a 2 Maybe 3 not my fav tho it has some bangers
Again, it feels like I am supposed to like this more than I do. I'm starting to think I just don't like Radiohead, which surprises me based on the albeit few songs I had heard before starting this project. Still don't get the hype, still I don't hate it.
Mucho sonic experimentation, although something of a disappointment, the same way "Kid A" was in some quarters for those whose expectations had been raised sky-high by "OK Computer". When it works, it works ("I Might be Wrong", "Pyramid Song") but when it becomes self-indulgent, it's a little alienating. Overall: not uninteresting.
Quite dark and atmospheric, as can be expected from Radiohead. I hadn't spun this album before, as far as I recall I've only previously heard Pyramid Song. Pulk/Pull Revolving doors was .... weird? Not my favourite Radiohead album so far of the project - The Bends moved me in a way the Amnesiac hasn't - but it's still worth a listen.
Enjoyable but few songs really stood out. It feels like the B-side of KidA which is apparently is what this album is.
I'm sure I'll finally get (like REALLY get) Radiohead one day, and I'm sure it'll be with the help of this list, but it's definitely not with the help of this album. Maybe better headphones? A dark room? The right assistant?
I am finding that Radiohead albums take multiple listens for me and this was my first for this record. I need to come back and listen again
This is a perfectly Radiohead album. Which is to say it has some really nice instrumental work with Thom Yorke whining and wailing. That said I’m starting to understand this band even if I don’t pray at the altar like their fans do.
imaju mi i bolje albume
I don't have very much to say about this Radiohead album at all. A lot of the material here was recorded alongside their previous, more renowned, and acclaimed album "Kid A", and yeah it sounds like it. I'll be the first to say I don't find Thom Yorke's vocals on this thing enjoyable. His crooning style I think does better to tie the entire album together than it does to make specific songs stand out. I think this album is a holistic experience and probably Radiohead's most isolated, and almost unsettling album (as far as I remember). The electronic instrumentals return here and work quite well to build atmospheric, bleak, and very damp atmospheres. Sometimes, the experimentation is at the forefront like in the song "Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors". On many other songs though, the instrumentation, and music in general, feels stagnant, almost like you're floating aimlessly in a void. It's quite a soothing effect, and this album as a whole is very soothing and comforting. I think some great examples of this are the songs "Pyramid Song" and "You and Whose Army?". When it comes to the guitars, they're hypnotic like on the more direct "Knives Out", one of my personal favorites here. The string synths that appear on the song "Dollars and Cents" also nicely help paint a void-like image. The jazz-inspired closer is probably the most interesting thing here, with highly melodramatic lyrics. It's a grand closer. So yeah I mean that's all I can say about this. Maybe I'm just not in the mood to enter this album's embrace. While I do enjoy its more daring and electronic-driven moments, I think this is one of their more milder and uninteresting albums, and I just can't jive with Thom's singing here. With that said though, you'd be hard-pressed to find a Radiohead album more pillowy, soft, and spacious.
I'll probably get in trouble for this one, but I've just never been able to get in to Radiohead. This is a very chill album, great to have on in the background. But if Benadryl made a sound, this would be it.
I could see why people would like it but I didn’t really care for it.
I don’t understand why there is more than 1 Radiohead album on this list. I feel like if you have heard one you’ve pretty much heard them all. You either like them or you don’t why I would need to hear more than one of their albums before I die I do not understand.
This isn't my favorite Radiohead. While I appreciate the musicianship, it's just a little bit too much moaning for my tastes.
A few great songs and great moments throughout but not a great album
so this is my first real experience listening to radiohead after hearing people rave about them for years. i can't say i really knew what to expect, but i knew that this is not one of the albums i hear people rave about. and... i liked it. it's nice. i like the production on it especially. it can be a bit sparce at points and that's cool. i was not totally blown away, but i got an inkling of why people like radiohead so much.
Never listened to a Radiohead album all the way through. Some songs were alright, others sounded like generic experimental rock.
I know people my age are supposed to be obsessed with Radiohead, but I found this to be incredibly mediocre. There were a few bright spots (knives out, dollars and cents, life in a glasshouse), but the rest of this just felt like a mish mash of shit. It wasn’t terrible, so I’ll go 3.
This is basically Kid A - Part II, so other than the band being Radiohead I am a bit perplexed why this is in the book. If you hear Kid A, then you probably have heard this album as well. Anything Radiohead touches is gold, which I can understand, but among all of their great albums this one isn't the most revolutionary or notable. There are good songs on here, but it's the sound of studio tinkering and I miss some of the brilliance.
Proof that not every album a band puts out is gold
This album is a collection of songs recorded during the Kid A sessions, which is fairly obvious immediately from the production style. As a result it naturally draws comparisons to that masterpiece, and I feel it differs in two significant ways: First, the overall quality of songs. This is an album that suffers from a phenomenon we’ve seen quite a few times in this project where the first half is almost perfect and the second half is almost totally forgettable. Some of my favorite Radiohead songs are on this album, and as I was getting through I Might Be Wrong I was seriously mad at myself for the preconceived notions I had about this record — I thought *I* might be wrong having written it off all these years! Then Knives Out is just ok (in my opinion) and the rest of the record I didn’t care about until the closing track. Feels like this could’ve been an EP instead of putting out a full length release to capitalize on the success of Kid A. The second difference is that this doesn’t have the same care put into sequencing that other Radiohead records have. It doesn’t feel like an album so much as a collection of songs. It is painfully obvious that these are just the “best of the rest” as opposed to songs that were chosen specifically to ebb and flow with the others on the record. It is a largely disjointed and unfocused outing, normally something I don’t care a ton about but it does stand out as irregular in Radiohead’s discography. I have high standards for them because I love them so much! So overall? Pretty good. I’m going to spin that first half like crazy. Top tracks: Packt Like Sardines In A Crushd Tin Box, Pyramid Song, You And Whose Army?, I Might Be Wrong, Life In A Glasshouse
Couple bops on here. Sounds like it was made while making Kid A but not as good because it was. I’m glad they didn’t stick all of this on that album. Also why another Morning Bell?! That song is so good. Didn’t like this version though.
Oh man... Radiohead again
Sounded like a lot like the other stuff I've heard before by Radiohead. I like their music and think it's objectively well made but to me it always feels a little forced. Definitely need to listen again to give a more thorough statement though
Easy listening but not much jumped out at me. Seemed jazzy, good background music and instrumentals but wasnt a fan of the singers voice as it seems monotone.
- they just got too artsy after Ok Computer - the musicianship is still top notch but it feels wasted
Really easy listening. Chill vibes music. Definitely great smoking music.
Amnesiac is the first album (of only three!) that I was excited to listen to. Musically interesting, generally my jam, but pretty low key and gloomy. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I'll listen again some time but rating it 3 out of 5.
I don't have a lot to say about this one. It's a good enough Radiohead album, if not a particularly groundbreaking or moving one. Don't get me wrong, there are some nicely layered arrangements and solid musicianship, if delivered by way of a mostly dragging, funereal vibe. Fave Songs: I Might Be Wrong, Pyramid Song, Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box, Life in a Glasshouse, Hunting Bears, Knives Out
Niet bepaald Radioheads beste album als je het mij vraagt.
Very Radioheady, not my favorite but a fun listen.
Gute Instrumentalisierung, schöne production. Texted deep aber diese langgezogene art zu singen nervt etwas. Lieblingssongs Pulk pull revolving doors Knives out
I liked this, but was still a huge disappointment
Kid B-sides Just okay from them this time around.
Was never a huge Radiohead fan, but I appreciate them. This is a solid creative effort.
Overrated
Listen at: 16/02/2023
This is just the sound of accepting lifelong disappointment. I was hoping, after the left turn of 'Kid A' that they had got that out of their system and would get back to making, you know, good, cohesive albums full of strong poignant original songs and only a bit of atmospheric and unsettling filler. It's time to let this hope go for me. Need to stop thinking if I put 'Hail to the Thief' or 'In Rainbows' on that I will finally click with them. I like all Radiohead's stuff, but I like it, respect it, don't love it. 'The Bends' and 'OK Computer' are just classics for me. Oh well it's not all wide of the mark, 'Pyramid Song' is indelibly linked in my mind with the events and outfall of the attacks of 2001, and looms with indecent gravity in my mind. I like 'Knives out' too. It's a serious and inventive album, and to be fair Radiohead have totally trodden their own path since, but they's never quite lived up to their promise. Possibly on purpose. I need to let them go, the next Radiohead album is never going to be the one.
obnoxious af
Radiohead does sad music pretty well, maybe its closer to despair. Once in awhile is fine but a whole album? Nah, cant fault them for their musical contributions though!
Spooky depressing music. I loved it!
Buen album, demasiado experimental. Los temas mas mainstream son temones
Definitely not my favorite Radiohead album. This one really starts to drone on and all sounds the same for the most part. Very atmospheric overall.
One of my all time favorite bands. There are some really strong tracks on here, but overall, this is not their strongest album - many tracks feel like b-sides or ideas. Radiohead's b-sides are better than most band's singles though.
I love Radiohead but this album is a little too electronic influenced for my tastes in general. There are some fantastic songs on it like Pyramid Song and Knives Out, but if I want to listen to Radiohead I’m probably not going to put this album on
Whilst I "appreciate" this band, I didn't enjoy listening to a whole album. Made me very gloomy. I liked the two singles, and a couple of others.
A solid 3! Enjoyable but not a mind-bender.
There are far better Radiohead albums than this in my opinion. Surprised this made the list. I like the jazz loungy vibe of the last track, and I Might Be Wrong has some fun grooves. Overall, the album is a little too experimental/slow/melancholy for me. Radiohead tends to depress me the older I get, and this album in particular leans into that vibe. But there is beauty in sadness too, especially when the music is well composed. Anyway, it’s Radiohead, so even though it’s not my favorite, it gets a 3 because they are iconic and they make beautiful music.
Not bad, but this definitely feels like an album of Kid A B-sides. These songs just aren't as interesting musically. Highlights: Pulk / Pull Revolving Doors, I Might Be Wrong
Decent album. Wish you could do half stars.
Good, not best Radiohead, but still good Radiohead.
In Rainbows still clears but it was a good listen
This is the closest to my taste in music and I do like Radiohead, but I don’t think these lyrics really caught my ear, so I’d have to listen again with a look at the lyrics to really judge how I relate
I’m not really sure what type of mood you’d have to be in to be craving this album but I didn’t really enjoy it.
I only knew the name Radiohead, was totally ignorant on the music. Overall, pretty decent. Well done, good sound. Don’t love the singer but not too bad. I can see why lots of people like this. But it didn’t really “wow” me either. May grow on me if I listen again. 3.5, round down to 3
This album was just okay. Nothing really blew me away. There were a few good songs on there but this feels like a weaker Radiohead album
Radiohead being Radiohead
Really gotta be in the mood for Radiohead, but otherwise it's solid.
This album was way chiller than I expected. I hadn't listened to much radio head before, so I was surprised at the said back tones of the music. Not bad.
I was expecting them to be more upbeat and metal for some reason, it felt very depressive and ethereal. Better than expected.
In the film Clueless, Cher teases her step-brother , Josh, for liking the “maudlin music of the university station. ... What is it about college and cry-baby music?” The complaint rock she so neatly skewers is, of course, Radiohead. And, boy, they really do lean into the maudlin complaint rock thing here. I've listened to this a bunch of times in the past couple of days while preparing this review, and I have found it effective music to play while I work. It is pleasant background music, excerpt for that annoying backwards backing track on Like Spinning Plates, which is like fingernails on a blackboard). The songs are often barely there; just atmospheric noise (Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors, for example). But, except for Knives Out and the Pyramid Song, none of these songs are memorable. You certainly couldn't hum them or play them on acoustic guitar around a campfire. Overall, this is the sound of enervation. It's hard to imagine myself ever getting wildly enthused or passionate about this album. But, I must confess, I found a good deal on a second-hand vinyl copy recently, and I bought it. So, I guess I hear something worthwhile here? I just wish they'd start playing guitar rock again, you know?
Meh
I like Radiohead but this album blows hit and cold with me. Requires a committed listener and unfortunately I get distracted.
Not my favorite Radiohead album. Not bad, very ambient. I like OK Computer and Moon Shaped Pool more.
I never really listened to Radiohead before. I reviewed Kid A on this site previously and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. This is another 'easy to listen to' album. I don't think it's as strong as Kid A.
I liked it. It was easily to listen to with some good songs on it.
I like radiohead, but this album did nothing for me
I like Radiohead in small doses.
Yet another experimental album comes my way with Amnesiac. This album is also another really weird one with a majority of the songs sounding like fever dreams and maybe making me fear i took some drugs without noticing. The experimental nature does work pretty well with these songs though. The more weird sounding ones often tended to be the better songs on the album. I feel this album is an acquired taste like all the other experimental albums i have looked at but i can easily see why this album has quite a bit of fans. Best Song: Packt Like Sardines In a Crushd Tin Box Worst Song: Hunting Bears
It’s really a testament to Radiohead’s songmaking ability that a collection of songs that were rejected from Kid A are still good enough to be considered one of the best albums ever. “Pyramid Song”, “Knives Out”, “Morning Bell/Amnesiac”, and even “I Might Be Wrong” are some of Radiohead’s greatest, but this album is noticeably less consistently good compared to most other Radiohead albums (except King of Limbs which I can’t find myself to enjoy at all). One of the low points includes “Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors” which sounds fine but for the modulated voice. Not sure why but whenever they use computerized voices, it really breaks up the flow of the album for me (also see “Fitter Happier” on OK Computer). I probably haven’t listened to this in 10+ years, and while I rated this album highly, I definitely didn’t think I’d remember it that well. About half the tracks are definitely forgettable, but I also forgot how much I enjoyed “Morning Bell/Amnesiac” (“releeeease meeeee”) and a few others in addition to the 2 singles.
Not bad. I normally don’t care for Radiohead but it was better than expected.
Woah didn't expect this to make the list at all Not their best work but there are some great tracks on here
Same old radio head, not much my jam. Also did this song have songs off of kid a? That or they sound the same
Questionable
Unique, with lots of interesting sound. Compelling in places, dull in others.
This isn't Radiohead at its best, but still contains some good tracks.
Très bon album pour se réveiller un lundi matin par 0°c. Y'a rien qui m'a marqué particulièrement mais l'ambiance givre était là
Didn't connect lyrically with much of this but appreciated more musically. Pyramid was the best song lyrically and sonically with the greatest emotional impact.
A few songs are great.
Primer disco de Radiohead, entiendo que no es de los que todo el mundo les flipa. Está bastante bien, tiene momentos buenos, pero se queda ahí. Aunque no me importa tenerlo de fondo, la verdad. Ganitas de que lleguen los álbumes populares de estos.
It what I was expecting. Very mellow.
I'm surprised that this may be my favourite Radiohead album so far (or at least tracks 1-6 may be my favourite half a Radiohead record). Yes, it's whiney and pretentious, but it really leans in to its whineyness and pretentiousness, and creates a consistently gloomy feeling which is surprisingly appealing. Rating: 3.5/5 Playlist track: Knives Out Date listened: 03/01/24
3,5
While I can appreciate some of Radiohead's work and in fact like a number of their songs this album doesn't hit for me. There are 3 or 4 songs that I like on work but much of the rest of the songs seem like they should be on an outtake's album. They can be difficult to listen to and in a bit irritating. If nothing else this album is pushing me to listen to a few of their other works to see if they sit better than this one. Favorite Songs: I Might Be Wrong, Pyramid Song, Knifes Out, Life in a Glow House. 2.5 out of 5.
There a rich texture to this record, and some of the songs sound very modern. But the record can feel a little less impactful with their tendencies. And I can understand what all the rage was about with Radiohead back in the day. One of the only bands of the era who could claim the status of being both critically acclaimed and commercially successful. Songs like Pyramid Song and Life in a Glass House sound like they could have been released last week, but half of the record feels a little unremarkable. Fav tracks: Pyramid Song, You and Who’s Army?, I Might Be Wrong, Life in a Glass House
Sometimes I feel like a philistine when I see all the praise heaped on Radiohead. When the band hits, they really hit. But many other times, I just feel like I'm missing something. I just kind of fail to connect to what they're doing in the way I'm led to expect a lot of the time. While undeniably beautiful, this record unfortunately lands a little more in the forgettable category (no pun intended) for me. Despite the standouts, there's plenty of wheezy electronica and ponderous meandering kicking around this one that really starts to blend together for me. It's not a bad record by any means (I'd take this over Deep Purple any day), but not their strongest showing either, at least to me. Rating: 3.5/5 Favourite songs: I Might Be Wrong, Knives Out, Pyramid Song, Life in a Glass House
Interesting album. It feels old timey, psychedelic and experimental all at the same time. I'm not sure when I would sit down and listen to this to "enjoy". It feels like an album people say they love because it's cool to love something so different and alternative.
great album, honestly not my n1 of radiohead but it still great top songs ~ You and whose army? ~ Knives out ~ Like spinning plates ~ Life in a glasshouse
Don't think this is the best Radiohead album. Very trippy but after Knives out becomes abit too abstract for me to fully enjoy (maybe someone on crack will tell me otherwise). 3.5
Pretty chill but nothing that hooked me.
it’s an album!
Not in my edition of the book. 2001. 3 stars. Well done, but lacking standout tracks and strays dangerously into prog rock wankage. Not their best work by any means - who selected this for the 1001 albums list?
1. Packt - 4 2. Pyramid - 4 3. Pulk- 1 4. You and who's- 4 5. I might be wrong - 3 6. Knives out - 3 7. Morning bell /amnesiac- 3 8. Dollars and cents - 4 9. Hunting bears - 3 10. Like spinning plates - 4 11. Life in a glasshouse- 3 Experimental, but dope 3.27
I think that this album tries to create atmosphere. I just don't feel it at all.
I definitely owned the first four Radiohead albums but I think I realised their highs were incredible but had very little interest in the rest. Some of it is just background noise. The singles though are haunting and ethereal and truly great compositions. You can’t mistake a Radiohead song. I would be happy to give a 3.5… but this isn’t my fave.
As a Radiohead fan, this seems a pretentious bid by whomever decided to include the album to seem like they know something the rest of us don't. This is a middling album by a transformative band. I love that Radiohead is intentionally ambitious, but this doesn't rank among their best.
#63. I quite like Radiohead, but this particular album isn't their most interesting. 3/5: acceptable *this is the fourth album I purchased from this list. Mostly just because it was the only Radiohead album I didn't already own, so I figured why not complete the set. Song added to playlist: Knives Out I've created a playlist on Spotify that consists of the best and/or my favorite song from each of the albums in this book. This list can be found here if you are interested: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7MAXDGLWlwLkFLb8veGfkA?si=FqkQQPgZTFWG0jAUJXLFZA&utm_source=copy-link
Ask me if I’ve heard this album in a week and I will have no recollection if I have or haven’t.
Knives Out
Radiohead isn’t known for upbeat music, but I found this album particularly dour. However, I liked the New Orleans vibe of the last song.
I like some Radiohead, but don’t see myself listening to this much.
Tror stadig ikke rigtigt jeg “forstår” Radiohead. Måske er jeg hård her, men det er bare ikke noget jeg rigtigt ville lytte til
...is it called Amnesiac because they forgot to finish half the songs?
-i think i have already listened to a radiohead album as part of this list -excited to listen to another -i hate to keep saying this, but radiohead songs are very dull LMAO -these songs are definitely interesting but idk if its in a good way -you and whose army feels like the first real song of this album that is enjoyable to listen to -i might be wrong is so far my favorite on the album, i actually like it a lot -first couple of songs threw me because they were so meh but second half of the album is not actually that bad -overall its getting 3 stars
I listened to this album twice yesterday, back to back. I never listened to Radiohead when all the cool kids were. Amnesiac is not as memorable as OK Computer or even Kid A, but in the end, it's mostly more of the same, yeah? That being said, I did really enjoy the jazz on the final track.
This was my first experience with this album. It was really good. I wonder where Radiohead people put this in relation to their other albums.
Un espectacular álbum que mezcla lo mejor de la electrónica con las tendencias alternativas desarrolladas por Yorke y su banda en su álbum previo "Kid A". Si bien, muchas de las pistas del trabajo se sienten como sobras de las sesiones de su disco anterior, son lo suficientemente sólidas como para construir un trabajo sólido.
ample uses of technology along with thom yorke’s signature warble. i know that his vocal delivery can come across as “lazy” and “off putting” to some, but to me it comes across as almost another instrument in the mix of sounds. his approach is not really meant to be sung along with.
I'm actually a pretty big fan of Radiohead. This album disappointed. There were a couple of good tracks, but it was far more repetitive than their normal stuff. Sad day.
Good album, but too experimental for me even though I’m a big fan of them. Favorites were Pyramid Song, Knives Out and You and Whose Army? 3/5
It's not the best work of Radiohead. It obviously has the overall theme of the band, but throughout the whole album I only got my ear closer to 1-2 songs. Especially the last one is different in a good way. 3.5/5.
I love radiohead. Every record is different, yet you still can hear its them. And everytime you listen to it you hear something new.
Fuck off 1100 albums. I was done at 1001
Paar goeie nummers en beats
I like it but it is not my favorite Radiohead album. Probably #5 or 6.
lite kul ibland. intressanta ljud
sämsta radiohead nånsin
Thanks, now I'm bummed out.
More melodic than I remember but still a bit droney
Cd
I love radiohead. It had some bangers, but didn't do it for me like a few of their other albums. Maybe i need to just give it another shot
listened to a different radiohead album
I have little to no experience with Radiohead, but I have heard that some melomaniacs hold them in pretty high regard. And there were a couple tracks on this list where that shone through. But altogether the album fell a little flat for me. Maybe it's out of my league, but my monkey-brain was thirsty for more rhythm somewhere in the album. To me, the songs tended to flow into each other in a way that made several of them indistinguishable, or maybe even unmemorable. Highlight: Life in a Glasshouse Lowlight: Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors Surprise Hit : Knives Out
Some parts of it were really nice, but overall it was kinda forgettable and it did not stand out with anything. But I will give it another listen.
Almost every Radiohead album I’ve heard has taken weeks, months, years to grow on me. I first listened to “Kid A” in about 2016, and wasn’t prepared to count it among my favourite albums until years later. “In Rainbows” didn’t live up to the hype for me when I first heard it four or so years ago, but when I reviewed it here I had to concede it was a five-star record. Even “The Bends”, which I always dismissed as “the album before things really got interesting”, is only just working its magic on me now. So, two weeks on from first hearing “Amnesiac”, I’m fully prepared to admit my opinion on it might change. But for now, it feels… relatively inessential. It’s 50% good-to-great Radiohead songs and 50% pretty transparent filler that didn’t make it onto the older sister album “Kid A”. I can’t quite buy the counter-argument that “Amnesiac” is on par with “Kid A” and people would have liked it more if it were released first. While it may have the same atmosphere, the same moody, glitchy electronics with a factory of twists and turns (exemplified in the muted, moody opening track), a lot of it smells suspiciously of filler. “Hunting Bears” is a couple of minutes of guitar licks. “Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors” is a throwaway exercise in electronics and distorted voice-over which disrupts the pace early on. We even end up with three minutes dedicated to a song also featured in “Kid A”, “Morning Bell”, in a drowsy, soporific arrangement which hardly does it any favours. Some of it, though, feels instantly essential. “Pyramid Song” is absolutely captivating, unwinding over a constantly shifting time signature I can’t quite work out across the course of the song. “You And Whose Army” shifts beautifully from hushed reprieve to epic climax. “I Might Be Wrong” is a surprisingly groovy, guitar-led track with some electronic flourishes. And it was wonderful to hear the brass section (used to stunning effect on Kid A’s “The National Anthem”) make a beguiling, idiosyncratic return in “Life in a Glasshouse”. Overall, “Amnesiac” is simply a good record from a band who have no excuse not to reach greatness. Here’s a wavering score which is more than likely to improve as the years go by.
- lots of interesting/weird sounds - in general I don’t like the moaning voice they use - songs don’t have a sense of direction/melody - usage of “boopy” technology sounds is cool - production is highlight I think, not many words - bpm is too low for me without other cool stuff going on - I did like pyramids song, and that it was sampled in let’s start here by yachty - it does just sound like b-sides from Kid A, which I don’t like either so - ok I admit there are at least a couple cool moments; trumpet and was cool - not enough for me to listen through the whole thing though
Pretty good 7/10
Radiohead has never really been my thing. They're a little too out there for me. This album was a fascinating listen though. Pyramid Song is great. All my favourite songs of theirs are on other albums though.
Not bad, but not their best
Intéressant
Forgettable
Somewhat sleepy for a no sleep title. I like their old stuff better than the newer stuff.
Kooky and inscrutable at times, though not as difficult to listen to as I recall. Still, I much prefer the earlier, more shallow but more melodic iteration of the band.
Meh, couple bangers, kinda boring.
I haven't heard this album in 10 years. First song is fine. Pyramid Song still spanks. Push/Pull Revolving Doors is more soundscape than song and feels like a reject from Kid A. You and Whose Army is a wonderfully weird song. I Might be Wrong is not my favorite song but I feel this song could realistically fit on any Radiohead album post-The Bends and would fit. I like the return of Radioheads heavy bass lines. Knives Out - Genuinely good song Morning Bell is the inferior version of the song. Dollars and Cents - Good but I do not and will not remember this song. Hunting Bears - Good soundscape Living in a Glass House - A solid end just feels like something is missing. I like this Radiohead album. It just feels like a 3/5 especially compared to all their other albums.
I really enjoyed pyramid song, you and whose army, knives out and life in a glass house but I would skip the rest
Rock, Radiohead-lyden, indie, stort lydunivers, lidt trist vibe
Before listening: not the biggest Radiohead fan but I’ll give it a try Definitely an odd album, great vocals, weird lyrics, and good tunes. Not my favorite, a little whiny but I think that’s the appeal. Whole album felt like living in a minor key, kinda cool but not my vibe. Top songs: Pyramid song Knives out Like spinning plates
Weird at first, but good Gets better as album goes on
ДА БЛЯТЬ ЕБАНЫЙ РОТ ГДЕ ПЕСНЯ КРИП СУКИ 7/10
Kallt, metalliskt, och ganska svårtuggat. Stor skillnad mot mildare The Bends. Bäst är 'I Might Be Wrong' med sin big-beatiga produktion, och 'Knives Out', som är mest "radioheadig". Av de mer experimentella låtarna gillar jag 'Life In a Glasshouse' med sitt jazziga blås. Fantastisk avslutningslåt. Kommer alltid hylla experimentlusta, men vissa låtar är lite för svåra att komma in i för att albumet ska få högre betyg. Det är dock något jag kanske får revidera i framtiden, efter ytterligare lyssningar. Bästa låt: Knives Out.
Decent Radiohead album. Not any memorable tracks. Was able to listen in one sitting very easily.
Not really resonated with me. Maybe there would be a time it would. The start of the album seemed more discordant than anything else, but then... I got to I Might Be Wrong. It picks up a bit, but really... The album feels more like someone's mind going through the day to day horrors of life. Recently I've experienced more horrors of life than I'd prefer. So maybe that is why it is bringing me down. It resonates with me, but not in a way I'd like. Like trying to play a song, but you get the wrong notes.
Interesting Album
Head before: yes I have a sneaking suspicion that if I were to listen to this 20 more times it might become my favorite R****head. As it is, I can say that I enjoyed it significantly more than when it first came out, and I thought it was just endless whining and wanking. It *is* endless whining and wanking, but there is significantly more depth than I gave it credit for, cool melodies, rhythms and ideas hidden in the loam. It helps to listen to it in the rain in London on a crisp day. Until that 20th listen though, this one is for the ‘Head heads. Top tracks: Pyramid Song, I Might Be Wrong, Life In A Glasshouse
it's alright, certainly not my favourite Radiohead album
It’s Radiohead, so you kinda know what you’re gonna get. Not bad, but nothing really stands out.
Definitely different
Solid radiohead album, with some bangers (pyramid song will always be one of my favs), would be a 3.5 stars
No
For me it's way too experimental, trying to combine different sounds and noises, it works, but for my taste I would listen once or twice in my lifetime
Reminds me of a dream - great finishing song in life in a glasshouse.
Not alone or sad enough to get into it today
it’s radiohead, it’s fine
sounds like depression and trippin balls
Seichter unaufgeregter Rock.
i've listened to this one previously. the first half or so is great, from packt like sardines to knives out. after knives out it is not very good, and not really worth bothering listening to. but that first stretch is good!
I like the mix of genres. It grows on me the more I listen to it, but right now I still don't fully understanding (or maybe I'm not in the right mood). I think I like it more than Kid A. Very interesting!
Tot molt literal: Llaunes —> enllaunada Piràmide —> Egipte Coherent i tal Molt hardware?? M’explico? Indie fosc suposo Veu delicada però maca, no com the cure per exemple, innocent? Una mica mansió de terror Spinning plates —> tot es mou del revés molt de pressa fricció Moltes coses alhora, contrast amb quan hi ha només sintes o coses d’aquestes es com BOOOM BOOOM xt xt i a més amb lo senzilla q es la veu i lo dolça fa q cridi l’atenció enmig del caos i es llueixi en els moments de calma
3.5. I've only listened to The Bends fully and a bit of Pablo Honey and A Moon Shaped Pool. I did quite enjoy The Bends but I haven't quite connected with their other material. This album is quite hit or miss.
nektery pisnicky docela fajn, ale overall nuda, asi jsem se na to v tu chvili necitil
Sorry, I'm not depressed and this music doesn't do it for me! Production was great... 3/5
idk
TIL there's a little drawing of a guy on this cover. I never saw it before but had it up on the PC Spotify and it was finally large enough to see. Mind blown 🤯. 3/5 music though
a really chill mellow radiohead album that I actually enjoyed
Good I guess.
Honestly was just ok. Mostly I just sat down the whole time thinking when will the album will be over. I would give this album a 3/5
This is more interesting than I was expecting it to be. I don't know more electronic. These guys have never done for me, but this was fine to listen to.
Today I will take issue with this being the fifth Radiohead album in this project. Over two-thirds the way through, I believe there are other artists I haven't heard from who deserve to be here more. This just didn't stand out. That said, this often had a very cool sound that I appreciated, like you were somewhere special late, late at night with the last folks at a party. It also sounds like no one on this album had slept in days, that they were absolutely weary and dreary and barely able to stand up. Thom Yorke's vocals, in fact, sound like he's already dead and his ghost is haunting the studio.
It’s alright.It’s mainly just beats and noises.Atmospheric.Pretty empty and kinda boring at some times.Thom yorks vocals are great as always but tbh I didn’t really dig this album that much.
Good. Not my thing.
starts off with some super interesting sounds on Packt in Like Sardines... this album is okay, a little depressing for my taste
Pretty good
3.1 just meh, it's still a good album overall but given it's radiohead i'm always expecting moree fave songs: knives out, you and whos army?
Ok
Boring. I’m indifferent to it.
Not the best of Radiohead
