Amnesiac

Slower and eerier than their prior albums. Ok computer and Kid A has a lot of similarities in writing style and I think a lot of the songs were written at the same time just split into two albums, insomniac seems to be the start of the gradual evolution into more electronic feeling music (not sure what exactly makes it feels more electronic, maybe just the drums) and playing more and more with creative ideas around the songwriting process, like pyramid song’s unsettling chord progression. I just feel like Radiohead makes really good complete albums that flow together while also having great songs that stand alone

Wil niet weer 5 sterren aan radiohead geven maar jezus

I mean come on

could i write poetry to this? n

It's very good, but too many Radiohead albums are better and more essential than this one.

The Bends and OK Computer are 2 of my favorite albums ever.

Not their best

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 bad, probably overeated.

Not their best

This album of theirs never stood out to me.

Some Radiohead I absolutely love. Some I do not. This is the latter.

Radiohead at their most experimental. I think you'll find fans of the band who hesitate to go to bat for this one, even though I would a little bit. I like the big swing into weird genres like IDM (a la Boards of Canada and Aphex Twin) and the more krautrock-ish nature of this one. I don't think it's perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but I do walk away liking it. It's fun to see a band that started out as just a guitar band try something wild and hit in a few spots. Call it a 3.5. Favorite tracks: "Packt Like Sardines In a Crushd Tin Box", "Pyramid Song", "Like Spinning Plates"

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).

I enjoyed this far more than Kid-A. I'm happy that they released all of their B side tracks instead of scrapping them. This is such an ambient album that stays interesting and emotional. I had to listen to it 3 times before having an opinion on it though.

I’ve always loved this album and actually prefer it to Kid A. Not super crazy about Packt Like Sardines and Pulk/Pull, but the rest is just so so good. Pyramid Song is one of the most eerily beautiful, hypnotic songs ever written.

Chill listen, some interesting sounds here. 3.5/5

An overall solid listen, that technically could’ve been called Kid B. Knives Out is the clear standout, and a number of other tracks have some interesting production. Definitely a few songs here that were unnecessary filler, which bring the cohesiveness down. Doesn’t make my top list of RH albums, but still good for the right mood.

Not among my top four or five albums from these guys. On the other hand… this is still a Radiohead album. Enough meat on this one to keep it above 3.

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?

Solid album but not in top tier Radiohead IMO. 3.75/5

Meh.

Anstrengend zu hören 3/5

Far too many minor notes, made me feel anxious and jangly.

This album didn’t capture me on my first listens like ok computer, this one (like Kid A) are more slow burns. I like them more and more as I listen to them.

not a fan

A pesar de ser “las que no iban a salir” de Kid-A, este álbum está muy bueno musicalmente hablando. Es todo un messed up landscape y el arte de esta era es de las propuestas artísticas de Radiohead que más me gustan. El arte unido a la música nunca será algo que no me guste, la botó el Tom Yorke. 10/10

Radiohead no falla. Les juro que sí me baño. 10/10

Could never get into this one

Boring even by Radiohead standards

Ear candy for the headphones. Nostalgic.

if i'd had listened to this back when i actually liked radiohead, i'm sure i would've enjoyed this substantially more. this just feels like a lazy throwaway album to me best tracks: you and whose army?, knives out

As someone who wasn't really familiar with Radiohead, I found this album pretty good overall. Favorite tracks: "Pyramid Song" and "Dollars and Cents."

Brings me back to freshman year

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.

Saw them on this tour, playing in Jersey City's Liberty State Park w Beta Band ("Dry The Rain") opening and Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan as a backdrop. Beautiful late summer night and truly a magical show, and as it happens, just a couple of weeks before 9/11. My mind has rearranged events, to where this show was the night before that absolutely gorgeous late summer Tuesday morning I was walking to work across downtown Jersey City and turned the corner onto Montgomery St, giving me a direct view of World Trade what must have been moments after the first plane hit, staring at the fireball atop the World Trade Center just across the Hudson river and rationalizing that it must be some kind of extreme window cleaning before noticing that everyone was stopped in their tracks, staring at it in bewilderment, too. Post 9/11 NYC was a weird place to be and this album made it feel more normal because it preceded the tragedy but still had a lot of emotional relevance. In its own way it helped me believe that what we were going through was not unprecedented and therefore survivable and surmountable. To be sure, I was superimposing my own trauma on it but it worked. Definitely better on headphones, where it feels like a very personal soundtrack through a surreal, isolated landscape. Listening to "Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box" on a subway crowded with other quietly traumatized commuters. "You And Whose Army?" with the sound off on a TV showcasing our "commander in thief" (to borrow from the title of the next album Radiohead made after this) making a tragically obsessive, nonsensical case for invading a country that had nothing to do with our situation and would solve no problems. The dreamy anxiety sleep sequence of "Knives Out" immediately followed by "Morning Bell/Amnesiac" immediately followed by "Dollars and Cents" and so on, eventually ending with a bizarre jazz funeral of "Glass Houses" - felt like the perfect soundtrack to my and the entire region's (nation's?) sleepless shuffle through the following spring. So no, I can't listen to this and review it with any pretense of objectivity. I gave this record a lot more meaning than probably even Radiohead did. In fact, I think I read somewhere the lyrics were somewhat randomly generated. But sometimes only nonsense makes sense. That is the genius of surrealism and dadaism in my view, and so it's no surprise that it was a an artistic movement birthed by war. Twenty years later, I was making small talk at a conference cocktail party with a woman from Iowa who unprompted told me a long story about her 9/11 trauma as she raced across Des Moines to get her kids from a daycare center located near the interchange of two nationally significant interstate highways, I-35 and I-80, convinced that intersection would be the next place the terrorists would hit. As I was listening to her I realized that here are no tiers of trauma. And I found myself laughing, I think mainly at myself, and it was very long overdue.

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.

So far, maybe my favorite Radiohead album (I think I have a few more with this project). I think I like it better than OK Computer, except I think that album was a little more consistent. When this is good, is great (probably the first 8 songs) and then 9 & 10, esp 10--Like Spinning Plates--kind of crash and burn, and the final jazzy flourish doesn't quite redeem the two clunkers before. Still, 3/4 of the album is sublime.

Eh. I like a lot of Radiohead, but nothing on here connects with me.

Thoughts before listening: This gets overlooked a lot in Radiohead's catalog, but I've always found it to be a nice continuation of the Kid A sound. That being said its definitely not on the same level as Kid A, Ok Computer, or In Rainbows. Review: So I enjoy quite a bit of this album, even if they go even deeper into the world of electronic sounds, further abandoning their guitar-driven alt-rock past. That being said, there are some throw away tracks here that keep this from being a fully cohesive listen, but luckily they are outnumbered by some of the band's better songs from this era. My favorites on here are "Pyramid Song", "You and Whose Army?", "I Might Be Wrong", "Knives Out", "Morning Bell", and "Dollars and Cents". Radiohead also put out a live album right after Kid A/Amnesiac, and in general, I prefer those versions to the album cuts. Still though this is a fine album thats getting 4-stars.

4.2/5

This was ! Fine ! I did not like the beginning at all, and the second half was better. He's very whiny isn't he

If anyone calls this music, is a moron

I’ve listened to Amnesiac a lot over the years, but I can’t remember if I like it! HAHAHA. Sorry. This album came out within a year of the release of Kid A. The way it was presented was that Kid A was the “weird one” where they went all Aphex Twin and Amnesiac was a way of “making it up to fans” with a “proper rock album” …though I don’t know if that’s what the band thought. Kid A is probably my favourite Radiohead album so I was always a bit dismissive of Amnesiac due to the above narrative. But actually it’s very good, as you would expect from Radio and the Heads (Are all their albums on this list? I forget.) and, crucially, it’s in no way M.O.R. Maybe it’s best to think of them as one double album, as they seem to have done as shown in their “Kid A Mnesia” 20th anniversary rerelease (which I have on red vinyl, I have you know) Genuinely, though, I couldn’t remember how much I liked Amnesiac itself. I think I did a previous rant about how the first four Radiohead albums progressively develop and become more experimental and interesting and then after that they plateau for a bit - what I call “Radiohead being Radiohead”. Well listening to this album again, you can almost hear exactly when it happens. The first four songs are all great. - “Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors” in particular gets me reaching to turn the volume up - but after that it’s all… fine. It’s not bad, it’s not even average, it’s good but it’s Radiohead being Radiohead. (Though I do have a soft spot for the “Hunting Bears” instrumental and “Life in Glasshouse” with Humphrey Littleton’s jazz band.) So, ultimately, I DO like this album. But it’s not as good as Kid A.

A defining album in some ways, though it's always been weird to approach. These were some of the first Radiohead songs I was exposed to and for me, set the tone and expectation for what this band was up to. Honestly, I was a bit hesitant to give this one a higher rating but coming back to this collection, or whatever you want to call it, was quite enjoyable and even relaxing in a strange way. I think it helps to hear this in conjunction with Kid A.

I continue to feel very mixed about post-OK Computer Radiohead, and this album might be the one I feel the most mixed about. The standout songs are so good, verging on brilliant. The rest feel incredibly lacking. The best tracks are “Packt Like Sardines In A Crushd Tin Box,” “Pyramid Song,” and “Knives Out,” and there are a few others that are pretty good. The only reason this is getting a high rating from me is because of the strength of some of the songs and the moody vibe. Even for the songs I didn’t care for, they added to the overall moodiness of the album, and that in itself elevates the material.

Remember the good ol days when people just collected CD's to look part of the Cool Club and bands didn't have to depend on people actually listening to their music to make money? I give you Exhibit A.

Radiohead recently re-released this and Kid A together, which is could, because this is the companion piece to a decidedly consistent one-two. Use Your Illusion this is not.

The funny thing about Radiohead is that I’ve always liked and enjoyed experimental music, but back in the early 2000s, when they were in their heyday, I had a hard time getting into their music, it just felt so boring to me. I also think that a lot of their fans at the time turned me away because they were so obsessive and acted like the band was God’s gift to the world. These days, though, when I listen to Radiohead, I’m actually able to absorb their music and appreciate it for what it is. As for Amnesiac, it was pretty cool. It had some catchy moments with good hooks, and it was experimental across the board, especially with the electronic elements. The album has some glitchy moments, which is a hallmark of early 2000s experimental electronic music and IDM, but Radiohead definitely falls under the umbrella of rock versus electronic. One of the things I appreciate about their music is that they’re able to pull from so many different directions and influences and do a great job of crafting them together. It’s really hard to put them into just one category.

This is #day4 of my #1001albumsyoumusthearbeforeyoudie challenge, and... look what we got in here! I remember reading somewhere about album artworks that while Kid A hints at the hell on the horizon that you're merely observing, Amnesiac is the hell you're in. "After years of waiting, nothing came," an unmistakable way to start a Radiohead album. Amnesiac is a darkly paranoid record that leaves you with a sense of anxiety, dread, and irk. Is music that stirs in you those kinds of feelings a good one? Absolutely. I'm here for Yorke's apocalyptic moans and his cronies' wild experimentations. Now, bring on Kid A, and let's go down the waterfall... That said, I'm not sure it's an album of theirs to listen to before you die. The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A, and, I guess, In Rainbows are. Still, this is a 4 out of 5. Looking forward to #day5.

Love love love

It's my least favorite radiohead album but I do really like it still. Pyramid song!

Blegh. Hey you know it’s a bad sign when a highly acclaimed album never gets reviews that are like…it’s fun! It’s highly listenable! It’s full of my favorite songs! But instead it’s like, oh it’s so innovative and experimental. I could fart in a microphone for and hour and that would innovate and be experimental. It would still fucking suck. This album is so boring. There are a few moments when something interesting seems to be happening and then either the instruments fail or Thom’s singing ruins everything. Why. The little drawing of the man crying on the cover is me. Right after the Fugazi song I’m So Tired started playing, and that felt like providence. I’m so tired of Radiohead

Ha, I listened to this, then forgot to come back and give it a rating. My computer would love this one.

I saw a few Radiohead gigs around this period. Bought ok computer and the bends, then kid a came a along and I realised Thom was getting a sort of cult following. Wasn't my cup of tea and the persistent wailing and off key tangents I grew tired of. This album makes me realise I did the right thing. Still not my cup of tea. Different for being different' sake.

Fuck you guys I liked it.

Astonishingly unexpected from Radiohead. Loooved it, really creative and unusual songwriting that got me really lost in a sound I wouldn't normally be fussed about. I will say it was better when out for a walk than walking around and around the store trying to find something they apparently don't have lmao, that became a bit disorienting. But I'm not going to take that out on the rating because it's not Radiohead's fault but the shops. And ofc the rating goes rocketing up again because they have a clarinet tootling around in the last track! I am really blown away by this album

Nicht meine Richtung

Wait....people like this? This horrible. It was grating. I can't believe people would listen to this willingly.

Please no more Radiohead. It’s been like 3 of them already and it’s only getting worse.

Sometimes, you have to wonder what the critical reception to Amnesiac might have been if it hadn't been released straight after Kid A and got the reputation for having its cast offs. Although it can't match up to KA, it's really strong on its own merits. Spinning Plates, Pyramid Song, You and Whose Army, the superior Morning Bell and, of course, Glasshouse, are all really sophisticated Radiohead songs, and it was a real pleasure to listen to this for the first time in ages and ages.

Een paar keer gedraaid, niks blijft ervan hangen. Of zou ik aan geheugenverlies lijden (onk onk)? Experimentje hier en daar, wat vertrouwde Radiohead-gitaarnummers, en door met het volgende album.

Ook dit album zat in de erfenis. De cd's waarvan ik alle fijne nummers heb geript naar de laptop. Eens even kijken. Hoeveel fijne nummers waren dat op dit album? Ehhmmm...nul... En nu moet ik ze toch nog een keer luisteren. De ergernissen komen gelijk terug. De zang is dan niet eens het ergste deze keer. Het is niet mijn smaak. Maar ik ervaar het nu toch minder dreinend. Het is vooral het experimentele waar ik mij aan erger. Het is leuk dat er gevarieerd wordt. Maar de uitvoering is soms verschrikkelijk. Als ze bijvoorbeeld eens een breakbeat-plaat maken, is het alsof ze Seda van de Osdorp Posse hebben ingehuurd.

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.

An album for a very specific audience--im getting a "people whom only refrain from killing themselves because they wouldnt be able to bother the rest of us" vibe

Meh. Still just not a fan of Radiohead.

Love the first song

An all-time favorite. Some of Radiohead's greatest deep cuts appear on this album.

Underwhelming. I'm not feeling the overall tone and vibe of this album. There are some moments but nothing that would make me want to listen again.

I can't. Not for me in the least.

i've listened to this one many times since i came out - i bought it on cd back then and it was a pleasure to listen to it again!

Absolutely awful. 0/10. There's not a single redeeming feature. Every song is utter garbage. Anyone who likes this is a liar.

listened to this before. its a nice continuation after kid a. thom sounded so tired and sad oh wait thats most of radiohead. really though its a great album not not as great as kid a and thats ok. i found the middle of the second half a little drag to listen to but most tracks are great. 4 personal favs: pyramid song, knives out, life in a glasshouse

Great album

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.

4.5, minus half a star bc the Amnesiac version of Morning Bell sucks so bad

I don't hate it, probably wouldn't listen to it again either. I thought I liked Radiohead.

I like the texture

3 radiohead

Unique. Invokes feelings of sadness.

not my fav Radiohead album

Really average, quickly fell into the background when driving the car this morning. Scrapes a 3

I feel like this is an easy 5 stars but looking back I only gave Kid A 4 stars... I guess I wasn't ready to commit back then :). Anyway, this album, along with Kid A, Pablo Honey, and OK Computer are at the top of my Radiohead charts. Faves from today: Packt..., Pyramid Song, You And Whose Army?, Life In a Glasshouse

Yes, I'm giving it five stars and I love it, but I'm also gonna carp on about Dimery being a fool for including this AND "Kid A" in the list - they're doing the exact same thing a year apart - completely unnecessary. 🙄 Fave tracks - "Pyramid Song", "You and Whose Army?", "Knives Out", "Like Spinning Plates"

An intolerabley boring album. I don't get the hype surrounding Radiohead. This isnt one of the albums that has their big hits on it even. It blows me away that something this timid and uninspired can speak to so many people. I'm glad someone gets something out of it though.

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.

It’s a scattered brain album that works great. The instrumental helped improve the overall sound in a delightful way

I just don’t get it. We already had one Radiohead album and I didn’t love it thought it was just mid. This one I actively disliked. Everyone raves over how good they are, how forward thinking they are, how monumental and epic of a band they are. I just don’t get it. The dude cannot sing. He sounds terrible and so freaking whiny. The lyrics are just meaningless drivel. He just drags each word out waaaaaaaaaaaay too long. You can’t understand what he's saying at all and even when you do it makes zero sense. I just don’t understand why they are so revered when this is what they put out. They are one of the most overrated bands in history. The only reason this isn’t a 1 is because if you took out whiny boy the tracks would have sounded at least decent if not pretty good. So wildly overrated.

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.

I'd rather be listening to something else

First time listening to radio head and I'm not really into rock but I really liked it! I'm not good at describing music so this will be brief but I really loved the melancholic feel to the tracks shown here. It creates a downtrodden vibe that gets you into your feelings. Much prefer the first half than the second half but overall its excellent.

Phenomenal Whole album is amazing. "Pyramid Song" still stands out to me

own

Ich dachte radiohead sei so toll aber ich find die Songs alle irgendwie cringe, Dollars and Cents gefällt mir ig. Aber not for me, vielleicht sind die noch späteren Alben ja mehr meins

Great album. Suffers from being sandwiched between Kid A and Hail to the Thief in the discography. But that’s its only downfall.

pyramid song is amazing, the rest of the album (until i was wrong) is very boring, annoying electronics that are too repetitive, lyrics aren't great either (from first listen). bit of a miss

It's grown off me a little over time, it's definitely 2nd tier Radiohead behind their big three albums. There's a couple classics on here like 'Pyramid Song' and 'I Might Be Wrong'. Unfortunately there's also a few songs that are kind of half-ideas that get stretched out into a full song, not surprising given this was Kid A outtakes essentially. Still a good listen.

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

Initially wasn't as taken with this as Kid A. It never quite caught up, but it's still fucking great. 4.5/5

I am just not a Radiohead guy, this made me drowsy. C- I guess.

In my eyes one of the most perfect albums. Just so many ups and downs and the musical layers are amazing!

Somehow people believe experimentation is all good and bands should be rewarded for trying new techniques. No problem with experiments but let them die in the studio when they don't work. Radiohead's catalogue is filled with experiments that should have not bloated their releases. Please, if it doesn't work, let it go.

I don't know how they do it, but their output after OK Computer just imprints. I haven't listened to this album many times, but I recognize every track. Also, Knives Out just crushes. Rating 4, but it's a 4.5.

Radiohead manages again and again to not only be experimental and progressive, but to produce real beauty that reaches the listener on a deeply emotional level. This is one of their best efforts.

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

Album made me just sad not very good vocals

Sounds like falling through space

Favs: "Pyramid Song", "You And Whose Army?", "I Might Be Wrong", "Life In a Glasshouse"

Being one of my all-time favorite rock bands, their experimental stuff is some of the most creative pieces of music I’ve ever heard. Favorite songs: • You and Whose Army? • Knives Out

ganz schön experiementell, was muss man dafür alles geraucht haben

it was very strong-willed of me not to rate this 5 stars but i am perhaps still being too generous because of my overall love for radiohead (and because this is my partner's favourite album of theirs) when in reality there are two songs (pulk/pull and hunting bears) that i actively dislike and will skip. there are songs i do love on here though: life in a glasshouse will always remain one of my favourite radiohead songs and pyramid song absolutely deserves to be the most popular on the album. overall i was very happy with getting this and would choose to listen to it over a lot of the others i've had.

Some great tracks but find this to be a 'feeler' album. Can't rub shoulders with other great albums by Radiohead.

Snoozer. 2.4.

No matter how hard I try, I just can't get into Radiohead. Personal enjoyment 3/5 Relevance to this list: 4/5

No creo que sea ni Kid A 2 ni Kid B, segun se sabe este disco esta compuesto de material grabado en las mismas sesiones pero son canciones totalmente distintas y es mas bien una mezcla de los aspectos de electronica experimental del disco anterior con la musica de radiohead convencional. Siempre escucho hate o tallas referentes a Pulk/Pull pero es de los temas que mas me gustan del disco. Cuando tenia mas o menos 11 años descargue discos de internet, entre ellos el "King of Limbs" que habia salido justo y este. De los tracks mas memorables para el yo de 11 era precisamente Pulk, Pyramid Song, Knives Out y Morning Bell. Despues de esta nueva escucha añadiria Dollars and Cents y Hunting Bears, a pesar de que cuando chico me doliera la cabeza con el paneo de la guitarra de ese tema pero era costumbre supongo. Life in a Glasshouse, suena como si perteneciera al disco Islands de king Crimson, lo cual no es para nada malo y al ser el ultimo tema del disco no interrumpe la estetica formada hasta ese momento. Lamentablemente este formato de un disco al dia no le hace favores y resulta que no es tan pegajoso como podria ser debido a ser claramente un disco experimental, me pregunto entonces. ¿Me gusta mas que In Rainbows? Creo que si pero ya le di un 5 a ese y si tuviera mas tiempo para escuchar los discos esto tendria mas sentido.

this is good but it's not OK Computer or The Bends

No puedo no ponerle 5 al album que me crío el gusto por la música fuera de la radio. Se que no es perfecto, pero en mi corazón, lo es.

personally not my favorite radiohead project but still a pretty solid album!! packed like sardines in a box, pyramid song and i might be wrong are my standouts

Love this one

Great stuff.

Songs at the beginning are better than the ones coming later. It gets more and more Jazzy and whiny. Annoying at the end

There's 1001 albums here, right? So there's a limited amount of space. Did we really need to carve out a place for the Kid A outtakes?

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

One more Radiohead album and I'm planning on abandoning this whole project. Would rather listen to The Smurf's Christmas Party Album on repeat than hear another boring Radiohead album!

Listened to this 3 times yesterday

It’s hard to overstate how much god damned respect I have for this act.

Sometimes I absolutely hate the way Tom Yorke sings. This is one of his worst performances ever which is a real shame cause the music is really really fucking awesome. I'd rather listen to Tiny Tim than this.

In keeping with my in depth reviews as of late: Fuck yeah.

I've never heard - or even heard of - this album. I think I was the only person who didn't LOVE OK Computer as soon as it came out. But I seem to appreciate it more and more as time goes on. I like this about as much as I like other Radiohead. I can listen to it. It makes good background music. Every once in a while I even perk up at something I hear. But, basically, it's not for me.

I never got into radiohead the way that people who like radiohead REALLY LIKE RADIOHEAD, but it wasn't a bad album.

Trippy and atmospheric. No one song stood out to me, but I loved the album as a whole.

I like Radiohead, and this album is no exception. But I think this is the beginning of Radiohead's decline from greatness. Still worth listening to, but there's a certain... drudgery of going from one song to the next, downbeat, complex musical soundscapes overlaid by Thom Yorke's insistent and unmistakable vocals. All in all, a good album, but feels like a collection of a great band's post-greatness B sides (which, as I understand, is a fairly accurate summary of what it is).

Nobody does 'hopeless optimism' quite like early 2000s Radiohead. Love the continuation of heavy electronic/synth following Kid A, but with drums and bass. Drums go from a firm groove in one song to stuttering/providing ambient sounds in the next. Cool variation. Guitar in "Hunting Bears" has that North African desert feel, very Mdou Moctar. Nice.

Puede tener cosas buenas pero no ha hecho click conmigo... 3

8.5/10

I wanted to dislike it because I haven’t enjoyed much from Radiohead…however, this seems to be their most poppy accessible album to me. I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected to. It’s always interesting to see why albums are on this list, why they are important. but I actually enjoyed listening to this album and could listen to it again.

bleh

The right album for concentrating on a creative project

Ok, a little circus-y

Excellent

no no no no no no no no no

Please, never again.

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.

Álbum numa vibe mais conceitual e com a introspecção costumeira de Yorke. Peca no excesso de recursos sonoros robotizados. Nota 5.5/10.

I know I'm supposed to like everything that Radiohead puts out, but this one doesn't do it for me. It's okay in spots.

First Radiohead album listen - immediate fan

Artsy, fey pretentious electronic music with vocals.

Weird b cuts apparently. Did not deserve to be on the list

Close to 5

Mostly pretentious bullshit, although there were a handful of decent moments.

One of my favorite Radiohead albums. 5/5!

awesome, love radiohead.

Acquired listening As oddities come to life Pretty as a bloom

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.

You could say that I'm not a Radiohead head

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

I want to like this. I love The Bends, it's one of my favorites. But this just feels like a pretentious collection of Soundscapes.

boring

It was okay?

Often boring. Sometimes sonically unpleasant. Actively skipped one or two that were doing weird things to my nervous system. No thanks.

Cool

I love the vocal effects and the building tracks. It goes from paper thin and fragile sounding to powerful so quickly. Beautiful album.

Inidie - a liitle bit too much. Im searching the "Rock"

is pretty good

Sometimes I think I like this album better than Kid A.

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.

Soooo cool! Timeless!

It’s a no brainer this one. Seeing Radiohead live was a bucket list moment for me. Simply beautiful

I liked OK Computer, but all other Radiohead albums are too slow and whiny for me.

Dull

Not my favorite Radiohead album. Has some stand out moments, but when it misses it really misses. Think I’ll just stick to the stand out tracks on this album.

Never hear anyone talk about this, no wonder - it sucks

really like the more experimental cuts on this, but even the slower songs are quite enjoyable

Great. A couple of songs are outright amazing… a few others feel like a MOMA side room exhibit,

I got in better with it on a second listen but still not their best.

a chill yet fairly dark album - definitely has that quintessential radiohead sound to it but is far less ethereal than other ones i've heard.

That's not my taste in musik.

Finally some Radiohead! Radiohead and System of a Down are my two favorite bands (I know it's a weird combo) so I am going to nerd out a little. There are a lot of really good songs on this album that don't get enough attention in the Radiohead fandom. Personally I think the I Might Be Wrong guitar riff is so cool and I find the melody that goes with it so catchy. And I can't believe Like Spinning Plates and Life in a Glass House don't have more streams. **Note to future listeners**: I like to substitute Pulk Pull Revolving Door with Pulk Pull - True Love Waits Version it doubles my enjoyment of this album. I just think the original version is too long to be so weird (and they ruin a really good beat with the vocals) I have a hard time picking a favorite Radiohead album, it is probably not this one, but if you ask me one specific day a year I might say this one. Spoiler alert: I am going to give every Radiohead album a 5 Also Check out the KID A MNESIA virtual exhibition, it is definitely worth the experience.

Loveeee this, love the mood, guitars, and the incredible synth work. This is the first Radiohead album if listened to in full in a while, looking forward to the next one. 5/5.

This started off okay but I can't stand Thom Yorke's voice after a while. There are some interesting ideas here, especially their incorporation of elements of electronica, but the overall effect was too dour for me and I was in need of of some light with all that shade by about halfway through.

fínt, ekki jafn gott og fyrri rafplötur þeirra. en hlusta aftur.

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

I'm more of a The Bends / OK Computer Radiohead fan, but I have huge respect for a band that's never afraid to experiment and constantly change their sound. On a sidenote, their Glastonbury 1997 set is one of my top ten gigs of all time.

This wasn't bad, just a bit bland to me. 2/5

The more I listen to this, the less I think it’s my favorite Radiohead. But it has Pyramid Song and Whose Army.

2nd radiohead album I got. I wanted to hate first one, but I didn't. I do hate this one. I do appreciate the effort, but not the music. I don't have the patience. Favorite song: dollars and cents.

NO MORE RADIOHEAD!!! I don’t care how much these listmakers fawn over this dreary nerd music, I don’t like it and I never will. I truly hope this is the last of this crap.

Ok, I’ve heard enough Radiohead now. This exercise has made Radiohead tumble down the rankings. My favourite part of listening to this album was when the last song came on, because it was almost not Radiohead, it was mostly a different band. I wouldn’t have felt that way one year ago, before I was asked to suspend disbelief and entertain the idea that Radiohead has produced four (and counting, probably) of the world’s best one thousand and one records. I would have been like “Oh yeah, decent record, that song at the end was especially cool, I kinda like Radiohead,” like a normal person

Someone just needs to say it, Radiohead are pretty shit.

A dark and anxious sound that loses momentum.

Wasn't aware of the history of this album. I really like Thom's singing voice and the live instrumentals on the back half of this album are really surprising. Obviously it lives under the shadow of Kid A but I had a great time with it.

I really want to like Radiohead, I really do... But holy shit, this is depressing. I know it is unique and important for musical development. Problem is that music developed into a bicycle without brakes rolling down a really steap hill.

Weird - big fan of their early stuff, but this is a bit different.

Whiny garbage

There's talent behind it somewhere, but the end result comes off as uninspired, pseudo-intellectual, and instantly forgettable. Pyramid Song is one of the more listenable tracks, but even then the stair stepping major chords are simple and repetitive while the unusual rhythm just feels contrived.

i love radiohead that looks soul crushing 😀 loved this album, i feel like this is one of the main albums frank ocean got his inspiration from

Weird album in terms of Radiohead's discography. Kinda like Kraut Rock meets Radiohead.

great

Grower. But Thom Yorke's voice can be so annoying. Need to listen more

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

7/10. Not sure how but this album was very interesting and boring at times. Pyramid Song and Life in a Glasshouse made the 5⭐️ list, though the album was quite consistent.

Ye mmm Thom Yorke

Some of Radioheads all time best songs on this album it’s a sleeper

Beautiful and atmospheric, interesting yet accessible album by Radiohead. I preferred Kid A on my first listen, but it might grow on me even more.

Very good, just like almost everything Radiohead has ever done

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).

I'm not a big fan of the first 2 albums, I like some of their other stuff, but overall don't understand the hype they get. Amnesiac appealed to me when it was released because it's the most triphop of all their albums, and I was in a big triphop mode in 2001.

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.

Brilliant and underrated work in the formidable Radiohead canon.

Was I already depressed. Not quite sure

Oof. "Pyramid Song". The creative concept behind "Pull/Pull" intrigued me and made me want to experiment with spoken word+ tech. Haunting lyrics and delivery, soaring vocals, experimental instrumentation, balanced production. I love this, but recognise that the moods evoked are not for every person/every moment. Radiohead does beautiful dark chaos very well.

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.

Brilliant. I love the mixing of sounds, instruments, effects, etc. the album kind of starts and ends the same with deeps electronic sounding reverb and deeper beats and then kind of breaks down to more simplistic songs in the middle, only to build back up again. But it never changes in mood or vibe. It’s melancholy and minor throughout, but never lacks in feeling or emotion. It also feels like a culmination of everyone that came before (Pink Floyd > The Velvet Underground > My Bloody Valentine) and then a blueprint for what came next (Sigur Ros > Arcade Fire > Muse). Kind of a pivot point for a lot of indie and modern post rock post punk music. I loved it! My only knock, is that I get a bit fatigued by the end. It’s a little sad, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Some of the best songs ever written are sad songs. One of my favorite lines from Almost Famous “great art is about conflict and pain and guilt and longing and love disguised as sex, and sex disguised as love.”

Good vibes, nice atmosphere. Revisit? Maybe

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!!

This is such a great album, and probably my favorite from them. Pyramid Song takes the cake.

I was a big Radiohead fan in highschool. A couple of years ago, I tried to do a Radiohead discography run for nostalgia's sake and gave up during Kid A. It was summer and the vibe wasn't right. I haven't really listened to them since, except for having "Hail to the Thief" come up on the generator a few weeks ago. (outside of this project, I'm in a bit of a disco/Funk era). All that to say, I didn't know how I was going to feel about this album after having not listened to it in about 15 years. I put it on for my drive in to work and by the opening notes of "Pyramid Song" I was in love again. There's a lot of variety on this album, glitchy Electronica, piano ballads, guitar moments that are heavy and menacing and light and jangly, oh and some jazz trumpet. Somehow, it all flows together. It has a groggier version of the same heady psychological effect for me that "loveless" had. Here, the dense production and desultory tracklisting gives the feeling of just waking up and trying to remember a dream (nightmare) that is fading or coming up from anesthesia - a very heavy high.

Rating: 7.5/10 Very good album overall. It is far from Radiohead's best, not as catchy, focused, interesting nor creative as much of their discography. Even though this sounds like Kid A leftovers, it can be special at times. There are many great moments but the lows are some of the band's worst material. Favorite songs: Packt Like Sardines, You And Whose Army?, I Might Be Wrong, Knives Out, Hunting Bears, Life In a Glasshouse. Worst song: Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors.

Solid. Good to listen to kinda background as it's sometimes a drone. Nice sounds

When I first heard the piano syncopation of "Pyramid Song" it was a random mash of chords and atmosphere; when the drums kicked it, it all made beautiful sense. Thom Yorke's vocals are ethereal and haunting, as they are on "Like Spinning Plates" as well. Though there is the meandering industrial soundscape of "Pulk, Pull Revolving Doors", it is more likely that a structured song is hidden amongst the sparse instrumentation and beats of "Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box" and "I Might Be Wrong." Amnesiac successfully infuses electronica into what is essentially guitar rock with the guitar removed. "Morning Bell/Amnesiac" is another version of "Morning Bell" on Kid A, and what I imagine was probably closest to the original writing of the song. "Life In A Glasshouse" first turned me on to appreciate jazz clarinet; they never sounded like that when playing "Louie, Louie" in marching band! "You and Whose Army?" is especially good live, where Thom taunts the audience in an "audience vs. Radiohead" showdown before the epic climb. Bonus points for pushing the boundaries of their genre, again, again.

Perfect for wallowing in the impotent melancholy of the digital age.

I feel like this is one of Radiohead's more digestible albums. Pyramid Songs, Dollars and Cents and I Might Be Wrong are standouts for me.

Very versatile and cinematic

This is an era of Radiohead I think of as “shoulder” Radiohead.

Radiohead - but Jazzy?

Oh man, this album came out in my grade 11 year and I loved it!

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.

Weird yet accessible. 5.0/5.0: Iconic

Love this album!

Radiohead is also that band for me that has a bunch of cool songs then a bunch of gobbledygook. This is one of the better albums imo.

Still cannot understand why these guys are so famous

# Playlist track - You and Whose Army? # Notes - I have the strong impression that this is one of those albums that are *hard* to listen. You need to give it time and attention. Play through a few times. You'll *earn* the right to delight on it. - Not having the time or energy for that right now, it's just a disjointed, weird listening experience. With some excellent moments interwoven with a lot of senseless wailing and depression.

Liked it way more than I thought I would.

Meh. It’s ok. There is a pretentiousness to this whole era of Radiohead.

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.

When I saw Radiohead come up today, I just wasn't looking forward to the listen. This might be my favorite Radiohead album so far, but I stand by what I said last time. I'd like to hear it with the vocals replaced by a trumpet.

Found it a bit of effort to get through Favourite: Life In a Glasshouse

Very Radiohead many wow

Raro. Bueno.

4+ Pyramid Song, Knives Out

No es mi favorito.

Angsty, pensive, paranoid,

Melancholic, pensive and dramatic. Driving music. Too sad boy for me.

kid b, es un grower xq al inicio no me gustaba tanto, hoy creo que es top5 de radiohead

TTPD para los alternatives traumados, ta bien I guess

Feels like Proto-King of the limbs. A lot of electronic elements, but very cool spacey sounds. Fav track: I might be Wrong

I enjoyed listening to it but it's a bit... Boring.

Someone in their review compared Radiohead's critical lauding to the Emperor's New Clothes and I think that sums up my feelings perfectly. Doesn't work for me. Also this is my fifth Radiohead album. Please make it stop.

I still just can’t get Radiohead

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.

Pretty great, honestly. It’s like the brother to Kid A. It has all the positives of Kid A IMO. But is it better than Kid A? I don’t think so. While it has all the positives, it pails in comparison to it. Still pretty good listen though.

No es mi favorito.

Easily 4 stars, maybe even 5. Classic modernistic ambient rock, melancholy to the max, moody as all get go. Makes the room it's playing in sound like my inner dialogue humming to itself. Yeh man, play it on repeat.

ASSSS

3

Better than all hail the thief. More electronic. I get why people hate Thom's voice but like, c'mon, Radiohead is iconic.

Haunting and beautiful. Life In a Glass House is one of my favorite songs.

great album, liked the jazz elements. liked the chaos and the melancholic sadness... i mean its radiohead lmaooo i messed in rainbows rating up it should also be a 4 star album just for the record! at least

Moody mild music, a bit boring and whiny. Stand-out: Dollars and Cents

- noises. go noises. [same affect as sports go sport] - it is a very foggy wet day and i think this album melds well with that. very reflective. obviously, it's radiohead, but anyways (pyramid song) - crunchy. often i chew on music but i think this is chewing on me (pulk/pull) - just a superb album. don't think i'd ever listened to a whole radiohead album the instrumentation is just so great and the production is tres cool - maybe i'm just used to listening to way overproduced music, but it was so specific with it. - will listen to again. - 4/5

genius

Still, still, still not OK Computer. A weak Radiohead album.

Tied for my all time favorite band. 6/5

awesome sauce v close to 5 stars

Not as pop friendly, but the journey of the album is fantastic.

This is a very dreary and bleak album. Not a fan.

I couldnt nearly get through this. It’s so messy and uninspiring. 2/5 Not a fan

Three or four works of genius, but some knob twiddling too - not quite the peak of their output

Just don't get it

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

I mean, yeah, fine. Radiohead has never been my bag.

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.

Best b sides album

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

scary album am considering not listening through the entire thing as to not ruin my day this early. brb though

Very good album by a favorite band. Probably 4/5.
