Good album.
When to listen: to induce anxiety. This album stressed me out. It made me physically uncomfortable. Was that the point? I’m not sure. The singing was sickly, the music sputtering… it reminded me of the red room in Twin Peaks.
Mulle meeldib ikka Radioheadi atmosfääriline kõla rohkem kui nende rokkimad laulud nagu 'Creep'. See album oli mõnusalt elektrooniline. Kohati kuulsin noote, mis meenutasid mulle Lähis-Ida muusikat ja ma võrdleks laulja häält kohati ka minarettide kõlaga. Jah, albumis oli laul pealkirjaga püramiidid, aga muidu polnud mingit viidet, et see neid mõjutanud oleks, huvitav. Albumist jäi mulle enim meelde laul 'Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors', mis langeb kategooriasse mõnus korduv muusika. Mulle meeldisid selle laulu trummid, mis olid täpselt parajalt meloodilised ja samas pungilaadselt edasi raiuvad.
classic Radiohead. I shouldn't like this but I do - dark, slightly trance like and strangely appealing. Unique is a word that really fits
Song Ratings: P.L.S.I.A.C.T.B. 5.2/10 Just felt very hollow and dry. Pyramid Song 9.1/10 The piano throughout was incredible I doubt there will be a better song than this one. Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors 4/10 Straight Up Noise Pollution You And Whose Army? 9.1/10 The build up into the outro was 100 percent worth the wait. Such a well made song. I Might Be Wrong 7.6/10 Very solid I’m liking what I am hearing. Knives Out 7/10 A slight step down but still a good song. Morning Bell/Amnesiac 6.8/10 Not sure what was missing but something was. Background vocals were amazing though. Dollars and Cents 6.3/10 There were definitely some lacking elements but the production was amazing. Hunting Bears 4.7/10 Not necessarily bad just an instrumental. Like Spinning Plates 5.4/10 Just felt like a lot was happening without any real purpose. Life Is A Glasshouse 7.4/10 Whatever those instruments were they were elite.
favs: pyramid song, you and whose army?, i might be wrong, knives out

All of these songs sound the same. And they sound the same as basically every other Radiohead song I've heard released this century. Sell paranoia someplace else, we're all stocked up here.
It is entirely possible that I need to give this another listen, but I found this incredibly dull. Sorry, Radiohead, not today.
Dear God is this tedious, the opposite of a "treasure trove of delights" promised by the 1,001 book. I don't think I've listened to Amnesiac since it came out, and now I remember why. I like "Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box," but little else on here lands, and "Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors" veers into Radiohead parody/caricature. I can get with bleakness if there's something behind it, but Amnesiac's icy remove is almost totally bloodless. And boring.
Never was super into them
previous radiohead album left me completely indifferent. this one didn't, the instrumentals are very weird and somewhat compelling? so this album could have been a fascinating experimental electronica sound that i would have wanted to engage with. but then the guy starts singing, if you can call it that! this voice! my god! how can you people stand it! makes it all the more disappointing that the instrumentals really could be interesting in another context.
Not my favourite but good all the same
The Radiohead album you know you’ve listened to, but can’t really remember anything about. Listening notes include: “Oh, weird, I thought that song was on Kid A”, “I think I just heard that song in an tv show recently”, “wow, this record has a lot of Radiohead classics on it… or maybe just songs that sound like other Radiohead classics?”, and other similar thoughts.
No 5s tho
Mournful lyrics, rich music. I think I like this, but sometimes I'm not sure. The most wishy-washy review I've written. It doesn't immediately grab me, but it doesn't repulse me either. I feel like I need to listen to more Radiohead as it is making me curious, and that isn't a bad thing.
Still not my favourite Radiohead record. Probably the one I’ve listened to the least, always found it a bit inaccessible. I’ll devote more time time it because I’m sure it will eventually grow on me 25 years later. Favourite track: the pyramid song
This is my favorite Radiohead album on the list so far (3rd one). I liked a few of the songs, but Spinning Plates made me feel physically uncomfortable…so weird!
Incredibly boring
Having only listened to the song creep, I felt like I knew what I was getting into with this one, basically more of the same stuff that's made up this list so far. Alt Rock nonsense was my expectation. Instead, this album is experiential as heck. I'm not quite sure if I like it, but it does some interesting things. I guess the most surprising is hearing sounds they recorded in 2000/2001 that just sound like 2010s soundcloud or even more modern hyperpop. Do I like it? Not particularly, but I can see why this may have made the list. Favorite Track: I might be wrong
Amnesiac > Kid A
man I be side eyeing radiohead after I learnt the lead was acting funny. This album is cool, definitely would re-listen with some headphones. It evokes a mood but I'M WORKING! I'm realizing if an album isn't speaking to me while I work then I know it's not for me.
I've always associated this as one work with Kid A so it's interesting to listen on its own. Morning Bell is a beautiful song ... overall I prefer Kid A slightly but this is still a great album.
I didn’t like this one. I really don’t like the main singers voice
Even a lesser Radiohead album is a 5. And thankfully, they know that it’s better to compose an album and put all the leftovers on to ANOTHER album. Kid A/ Amnesiac are so, so much stronger separately. I listened to the rerelease, which put them together, in a single go the day it came out. And… yeah. Even Radiohead gets tiring at over an hour. 5 Boolean: True
I can see why some folks say Amnesiac is full of Kid A’s leftovers. Would they feel different if Amnesiac had come first? Hmm. Anyway, both “Pyramid Song” and “Knives Out” are outrageously good. I love this album. 4.5?
The companion of their previous album Kid A and recorded in the same sessions. A very creepy-sounding record, aural paranoia and isolation conveyed by minor keys, syncopated drum machines, and odd synth sounds and vocal treatments. Thom Yorke sounds especially morose and/or irritable on any given track, often wailing in a banshee falsetto. These two records further distance the band from the 90s guitar rock band they started out as. Compared to Kid A, there is less cohesion and theatricality; I think this really comes off as collection of stuff that they thought wasn't good enough or similar enough to be on Kid A, but still deserved release. The songs are an acquired taste and bear out some interesting ideas after repeated listens but this is not an accessible collection. If The Bends is their most accessible, conventional album, this is more of a piss-off (or even pissed-off) experiment. It ranks pretty low on Radiohead albums for me - there just isn't enough fire. That said, there are some stand-outs. I Might Be Wrong is a menacing yet haunting electronic groove. Dollars & Cents is an understated shuffle groove with paranoid-sounding synths and guitars. Life In a Glass House is a New Orleans funeral march.
I never understood all the hype behind Radiohead and I still don’t
average radiohead album but i didnt really like it thst much it wasnt the vibe
A strange album compared to Kid A. But still better than latest Radiohead albums
Not my fav Radiohead album but still it’s Radiohead
Took a bit to get into. Not my fav Radiohead but not bad
this is a classic
doidera mas não doidera 🤩 e sim doidera 🤨
So not in the mood for this album today, or ever. Never been a Radiohead fan bc their sound irritates me. I know I’m in the minority. They’d never be in my top list, but I get that they’re somewhat significant.
COOL
While Kid A was the first Radiohead album I obsessed over when it was new, Amnesiac was the first to leave me slightly disappointed. I think it suffered at the time for being seen as "Kid B" or a collection of leftovers. I picked out a couple of favorites, "Packt Like Sardines..." and "You And Whose Army?" and mostly moved on to other music. It wasn't until Radiohead truly grabbed my attention again with In Rainbows that I started to reevaluate their entire catalogue. Removed from narrative surrounding its release, Amnesiac starts to feel like a masterpiece in its own right. Pyramid Song might have gone up the most in my estimation -- its swelling strings and piano predating their should-have-been Bond theme, Spectre. This combined with "Pulk/Pull..." really drive home the band's common themes of isolation and paranoia... maybe better than anything else they've ever done. "You and Whose Army?" still lands hard for me 25 years later -- that slow burn into an explosion of sound is something Radiohead does better than anyone. This time through, I paid a little more attention to some of the songs on the latter half and gained a new appreciation for Dollars and Cents and Hunting Bears. They're always making interesting choices. Hunting Bears in particular feels like a piece of incidental music for a film and doesn't really have a parallel in their discography. The whole album feels arranged to create a feeling of uneasiness... keeping it always surprising and never boring. If I have any quibbles, I'm not sure a 2nd version of Morning Bell is necessary... I prefer Kid A's version. I also prefer the Kid A Mnesiac "Why Us?" version of Like Spinning Plates, though the album version works fine here. Finally, Life In a Glasshouse isn't my favorite closing track. Even though I have a few minor issues with it, Amnesiac still does more than enough to earn a 5/5. It might be the album of theirs that's grown on me the most since its initial release.
Gorgeous and wide, expensive and interesting record. I just think sometimes the experimentation does not work for me, it's titters on annoying versus interesting, but in a very manageable way too. A good diversity of sounds, and a vision
Skide godt radiohead album
This album is more than just Kid A b-sides. Listening to it outside of that assumption and judging it on its own merits it's still a really great record. I love all the bluesy guitar lines alongside the electronic grooves. I love how they mess with meter in a lot of these songs, especially on Pyramid Song. I mean it's Radiohead, of course it's good. Not their best but still exceptional.
Just a good atmospheric album with some great tracks. Is definitely not anywhere near my top Radiohead album, but still think it’s great. More of a fan of their bends and ok computer era.
Radiohead.
I'm running out of things to say about Radiohead. I like them, but at 900+ albums I've listened to enough Radiohead for a while. This isn't their best release, but I appreciated the toned down soundscapes.
Sweet. Heel atmosferisch
I like weird. And I like Radiohead. But I didn’t like this.
no me gustó la verdad. Me esperaba otra cosa. Me quedé muy manija con The Bends y los otros dos discos de Radiohead que escuché no me llegaron. Es muy experimental este, nose que onda. No me llegó la verdad
Is Radiohead overrated? Yes. Am I the only one that thinks this? Pretty sure, no.
I got this just days after getting The Bends, which is kind of unfair to this album. I love “Pyramid Song” and “I Might Be Wrong”, but otherwise didn’t feel especially into this album as much as Radiohead’s other masterpieces.
Great talent and tunes, thx
i think this album requires to have a more mature palate towards music. I say that, cuz, i remember listening to it some years before, and it was such a different experience from now: felt boring and weird. But after listening to some of the genres this album is clearly inspired, and after dipping my toes on making music, it's noticeable how hard is making music and how hard is making electronic music the way they did here. What i mean is that it's easy to listen to some rock group made an album with electronic elements, some electro-pop or synths. But I think Radiohead made an album with some songs that are primarily experimental electronic music with some rock sounds and instruments. It's clear with the use of these textured and complex sounds that feel primordial and the center of interest on most of the songs. It feels like such a logical and better version of OK Computer, or KID A in the sense that here is a full immersion in that electronic sound. Besides that, i really dig the nocturnal vibe and thematic here. Is obviously melancholic and sad, like other albums from them. But more than that, feels somewhat minimalistic and more personal in its sounds. More close. I must say, i probably prefer other albums from them. But this one is a shocker under the new lens of perspective, time and experience.
My radiohead ratings are all over the place. I really really like this. I actually prefer it to Kid A, which i think is controversial. I think its prefer Hail to the Thief, which i also think is controversial. But I like it alot. The last track with the clarinet or whatever the fook is bonkers. Great High 4, eventually higher
radiogood
I have normally overlooked this album, it's got some amazing songs, and some very unsatisfying ones
This was the last Radiohead album I really loved, and I didn't love it as much as Kid A so it felt like a slight disappointment to me at the time. The high points were basically as high for me, but I didn't like this album's weaker tracks/moments as much as I liked the weaker ones on Kid A. After this I liked each subsequent Radiohead album less than the previous one, to the point where I don't even check out their new music anymore. (From my Hail to the Thief review a few months ago: "I remember this album as the one where I realized I no longer LOVED everything Radiohead released, for the first time since Pablo Honey. I didn't hate or even dislike this one, I just didn't love it and have felt pretty much the same about everything they've released since then, which seems insane that it was 23 years ago now.")
6/10
Being the best radiohead album is like being the best port-o-potty at a music festival... Still not great.
Just a garbage album, probably their worst
I'd say I enjoyed the later parts of the album more than the beginning. Feel like I always hear about pyramid song but did not find that the highlight of this project. All those chromatic mediants, the sliding strings, distant muffled sounds and stereo usage along with the surrealistic lyrics really do leave an impression of emptiness and amnesia.
I like it
this is actually one of the only radiohead albums i HADN'T listened to in full. thought the sounds on here were very interesting, first three songs especially. i imagine most of this would be sick live, wish i was around at release for it
I think this is their best album from an "atmosphere" standpoint. It feels like 11 different rooms. I hardly recommend John Darnielle's writing on this album that I don't know where to find right now BUT I'm sure you could google it if you wanted to.
5 5 5 across the board
Love the sound
I like Radiohead (OK Computer) but not a fan of this album. Too dreary and angsty for me.
That album's a mess. No choruses.
I'm stealing a comment I saw on another radiohead album, but I feel it's valid. How are there so many radiohead albums on this list and yet not one single Tool album!? I might be wrong is a banging tune though
Good
You know, I was a religious fan of Radiohead back in highschool. I tended to drift toward the more obscure releases and for a while was a huge fan of albums like Amnesiac and TKOL. Over the years I've broadened my musical pallate, and while I still rate the band highly in general, their output is in no way perfect. Amnesiac, to me, sounds like leftovers from both OK Computer and Kid A with a couple of novel tracks mixed in. Individual songs have the 90s rock aesthetics of the former and the electronic tinge of the latter. The songa with heavy piano use tend to be the most stand out. All that to say I really enjoy the album, but it is less impressive than some of their other works.
Very underrated Radiohead album 10/10 by all means no skips whatsoever it’s very connected yet separate at the same time I can see the kid A influence on this album especially with the songs that have very technological elements to it. Songs that stood out to me honestly every single one no complaints.
Barely remember any of it and didn't really enjoy. Not my thing unfortunately!
Good jazz, very cool
Very slow, soft, and psychedelic which I can withstand but it did leave me yearning for more contrast. Instrumentally heavy at times.
Tuesday May 26th, 2026. Its giving "Intro music of a moderately well rated 2000s TV show". I am a fan of many of the more famous Radiohead songs but I wasn't a huge fan of this album. I like the piano parts in some of the songs but I didn't like some of the electronic effects. I really liked the intro of "I Might Be Wrong" though. 6/10.
There’s pretty songs on here for sure, and even the more abrasive experimental songs sound good, but it’s all just fine. I feel no emotions listening to this. “Life in a glasshouse” is the most interesting song thanks to the jazz instrumentals, but even that song just barely clicks with me. Maybe after listening to Kid A I’ll understand this companion album better, but for now it’s just meh.
Enjoyed this one, especially the jazz at the end. However, a friend said to me recently: Radiohead sounds like a whole lot of waiting for something to happen but nothing ever does - this album is true of that, not much if any rise and fall, fr it’s like if edging was an album
4.5⭐️/5 [05.25.2026] 06.07.2026
Impressive experimentation but nowhere near as cohesive as Kid A or In Rainbows
i gotta just accept i’m not a radiohead person
I'm a big fan of this band admittedly. This album is a bit of a dip for me though. Knives Out is the highlight. A few other songs are solid but there is a bit of dead weight. A few interesting ideas that are not entirely fleshed out. 3.5/5 rounded to 4.
Don’t like
Solid 3.7 / 5
Certainly far from the best Radiohead album
283 It’s Radiohead, so you pretty much much know w hhh at to expect. Highly accomplished musicians, nonsense lyrics sang overly sincere, the smuggest fandom in music. Probably my least favourite Radiohead album but it contains my favourite Radiohead song (I might be Wrong) Highlights I might be Wrong Knives Out Morning Bell/Amnesiac.
Very familiar. No notes. 10/10
vinyl day! i think this is Radiohead’s most influential album
It was certainly an interesting album. Nothing "bad" necessarily, but also not super enjoyable. Nothing I'd listen to again, but I can see how this would be very unique for its time. It sounds like it was made well, I just didn't vibe with it.
I think i could be fed slop from Radioheads bum and id still think it was the best thing ever. Amnesiac is quite clearly not their best album, its probably not top half, but Im giving pyramid song, you and whose army and knives out a 5 and the rest, 4, and this is my list so you can do one
Didn't like this one as much as Kid A, which I gave a 4. Were they on a downhill trajectory after the peak of OK computer? Do I sound like a basic white boy for liking OK computer? Am I not pretentious enough for this album? I guess we'll never know. It was fine, but probably won't bother again.
Hadn’t listened to this one. I like Kid A (the part 1 of this) a bit better but maybe that’s just because I’ve listened to it a lot. This is probably objectively a 5 but it’s a 4 rn for me thank you thank you.
Too slow for me
idk para pensar señores.
I love Radiohead and think this stands on its own as a great album, but ultimately feels like a b sides compilation from Kid A recordings
An absolute triumph of studio manipulation and experimental design. The way this record leans into claustrophobic electronic textures, distorted jazz horns, and fragmented rhythms is brilliant. Tracks like Pyramid Song handle rhythm in a completely unconventional, mesmerizing way. It feels like a beautiful, disjointed transmission from an entirely different reality, completely discarding typical rock structures for pure sonic exploration.
3 eme album après 'Kid A' (5/5 - originalité sans faille) et 'Hail to the Thief' (3/5 - beaucoup moins créatif que Kid A). Ce nouvel album, composé en même temps que 'Kid A', a les mêmes qualités : d'excellents morceaux (top 3 : "Pyramid Song", "Knives Out", "Morning Bell/Amnesiac"), et une originalité / capacité a surprendre toujours présente. Il mérite donc la même note ! =>5/5
When I first got into Radiohead, I was a bit adverse to their electronic leaning records. But, the more I listen to them, the better they get. While this one has a few tracks that aren't great for listening to on their own, when listened to in the context of the flow of the record as a whole, it's great. Highlights: "Pyramid Song", "You and Whose Army?", "I Might Be Wrong" and "Like Spinning Plates"
Huh?
Okay at this point I expect to get all but two, maybe three of Radiohead albums. I do think Amnesiac is a great album, but for as strong as it starts it gets kind of boring by the end. I'd say it's comparable to Hail to the Thief, which maybe doesn't have as many really solid stand out songs as Amnesiac does, it's a more cohesive album from start to finish. Those two are probably going to be the worst rated of the Radiohead albums that are on this list because they simply don't compare to the likes of OK Computer, Kid A, The Bends, or In Rainbows. I remember hearing that Amnesiac was almost like the b-sides to Kid A, or that it would function better if they were released as a double album set. I kind of agree with that sentiment. The two together are a masterpiece but when you put them side by side Amnesiac doesn't compare to Kid A even though they're very similar.
Pretty good overall.
honestly solid 3.5
hmmm i've been really into radiohead lately . but not listened to this one ..!!! ok kinda boring. ..
Strong 4
Would give three and half stars if I could.
It's Radiohead, so it's pretty great. But this is not my favorite Radiohead album. When I get a Tier 2 album from a great band, it makes me wonder of all the tier 1 albums from that band are also on the 1001 list.
I loved this when it came out, it was nice to revisit. Favorite songs: I Might Be Wrong, Pyramid Song,
Perhaps appreciated for its advanced times of experimentalism, I could understand the draw. I personally will forever hold The Bends and In Rainbows as two must-listens, and hope that at least one of them may be on this list of 1001 Albums to Listen to Before You Die.
Listening to the spinning plates song felt like a spiritual experience
Very one note but Radiohead makes great ‘soundtrack’ albums!
yaaaaay radiohead yaaaay yaaay
I love this album. Stand out tracks include all of them, but I especially like Pakt Like Sardines, I Might Be Wrong, and Like Spinning Plates.
I kind of struggled with this one because I like probably 5 or 6 Radiohead albums better than this. It's hard not to grade on a Radiohead Curve. With that said, there are still a lot of really good songs like Pyramid Song and Knives Out. I enjoyed revisiting it.
I like some of the grooves, especially in the middle tracks, but this is too quiet, too meandering, too boring.
2/5 - This one didn't age well for me. Haven't visited this in 20 years, and I think that was the right move.
Jeepers creepers, cheer up. Dirge after Dirge.
This era of Radiohead is brutal. Give me The Bends all day.
Finally... Kid B. Of all the Radiohead albums on this list, Amnesiac is definitely the most redundant of all to include, knowing its history. Amnesiac is basically the leftover album for Kid A. It's like "The Final Cut" to Kid A's "The Wall" or the "Steal This Album!" to Kid A's "Toxicity" for all the Pink Floyd or System of a Down fans out there. However, there's nothing wrong with leftovers if everything goes right. As long as the food was good originally, isn't expired, and is reheated properly, leftovers can still be really freakin' good. Amnesiac is really freakin' good. It's not Kid A levels of good, obviously, but it's still great. The electronic sound that made Kid A so special is still here, but Amnesiac feels more cold than Kid A. The atmosphere is more... claustrophobic for many of the songs, especially the opener "Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box." Other than that, yeah it's Kid A 2: Electric Boogaloo. Not the best sequel on the planet, but the core is still there and the album absolutely has its highlights. "Pyramid Song" is genuinely up there with Kid A's best songs in terms of quality. I also really love the three song string of "You And Whose Army?," "I Might Be Wrong," and "Knives Out." Not every song is a winner. Some of the songs near the end just kinda happen and I'm really not huge on "Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors," but even the worst stuff here is still good. It really says a lot that an album like this that's generally seen to be among Radiohead's weaker releases is still as good as it is. Radiohead really were at an unreal level of talent in their prime. So yeah, Amnesiac is good and I will not accept any slander of this album. Strong 4/5.
I really, really want to "get" Radiohead, but so far that's not happening. While this album is at times nice to listen to, I found most of the tracks to be boring and incohesive. Honestly, the whole album just felt like a collection of B-sides.
I gave this a 2* last time I had it come up, and that still holds. Slow stoner music, and the extra effects also made the lyrics difficult to pick out to find a redeeming quality.
No wonder this album never hit my radar. Started out great but by the end it was soooo draggy. I guess I'll average and give it a 2! Eff it!
Engaging background music. Yes, that's a paradox, but I don't think Radiohead would mind.
Too abstract for me. I didn't truly dislike any of the songs, nor did I really enjoy any of them either. 2.5 rounded up to 3.
I was expecting this to bore me to tears. And to be fair, the vocals here do bore me. The instrumentals, however, do not (mostly). There are enough little touches of interest through the long stretches of Thom Yorke's lethargic whining to make me think that maybe they were on to something. Apparently this is the stuff that didn't make the cut for "Kid A". Maybe I'll like "Kid A", then? We'll find out, I guess. Anyway, somewhat better than I was expecting.
an interesting, multi-layered listen, with lots of bursts of noise and synths and clattering beats. I think the noisier, glitchier, more disorientating tracks are the best
Would give it a 6 if I could
This album is super sonically dense. The first listen I was looking for faults and felt like it was a bit too subtle and didn't have any clear singles. When I listened to it again this morning, I was that much more familiar with the track list and felt like it was hard to find any fault in this at all. I do think to appreciate it you have the listen to the whole thing - the songs all blend together and feel like they have a theme. This is definitely a lesser known Radiohead album but I feel like should be considered just as influential and well executed as Kid A.
I don't know if I fully realized how much I like Radiohead going into this project. I knew I enjoyed their music, I've previously listened to their full discography and have gone through phases where they were essentially all I listened to, but I don't think I've listened to them in years. Other than Kid A, which is one of my all time favourite albums, I wasn't expecting to like any of these albums as much as I have and Amnesiac is no exception. I absolutely love this album, but I guess that's not surprising since it was recorded at the same time as Kid A.
Love love loveee
aaah bicha se eu tivesse 15 anos quem sabe. trenheira meio enjoada, mas até que teve uns momentos bacaninhas
If I were to rank Radiohead’s albums, Amnesiac would probably be in the bottom half, however, Kid A is only marginally its superior and would probably occupy 3rd. Amnesiac is the 2nd instalment of Radiohead eschewing a conventional path, so whilst it is not the album that forged a new path for Radiohead, it was from the same sessions. I assumed I’d give this 4 stars but in truth, this is a round up.
RADIOHEAD ARE SUCH SUPER FUN!!! (also, as usual, it sounds great)
Nice!
Listened to during walk at work and 5k run. Not the best for running, but a good vibe chilling wise. Not the biggest fan of the songs with just-electronic sounds (Packed like Sardines a good example). Stand outs are Life in a Glasshouse, Pyramid Song, and Knives Out, with Pyramid Song being my favorite. Not bad, would try again (probs not though).
Sempre estranho ouvir Radiohead. é experimental demais. São vários estilos dentro de um disco. Mas nesse eu senti algo muito repetitivo. Parece uma coletânea de músicas não acabadas Ouvirei novamente
cooooll
Un des meilleurs de Radiohead, écoute très agréable
used to listen to this album a lot, so underrated
Hmmmmm...I really liked this....like a lot. Do I have to go back and revisit those other four Radiohead albums I gave 3 and 4 stars to now?
Me encanto
I mean, yeah...it's sad. It's whiny. It's brilliant in places. It's Radiohead.
I fell in love with Kid A when it came out so when this album dropped I was disappointed. This album is where I stopped listening to radiohead thinking they had peaked creatively over their first few albums. Recently I have gone back and listened to the albums I missed out on from newest to oldest. I was wrong, they did not peak, they just kept the great albums coming . This album is probably still my least favorite but I enjoy it more today than I did all those years ago. Glad I got back into radiohead.
The more I listen to later period Radiohead, the more I realize that I missed out after album 3. And it's funny to follow Oedipus Schmedipus because both of them seem to be soundtracks for movies that don't exist. The only difference: this is actually good. 4.5/5
i dont think this is much weaker than kid a. people got fatigued maybe?
Amazing wow
אין לי כוח לכמה שפירמיד סונג הוא אחד השירים הכי יפים בעולם. פשוט עוצר נשימה, רדיוהד במיטבם רוב השירים האחרים טובים גם
ya por ser radiohead tiene un 4, pero no es mi album favorito. Igualmente esta muy bueno aunque el principio de las canciones son muy lentas.
Late night sad boy musics. Not as great in the middle of the day and you don’t want to feel in a doldrum.
Naur
Not my favorite
lovely little album. underrated
I don't mind music that's more on the experimental side but you gotta make it somewhat engaging to listen to at the very least. I just found myself forgetting these songs as soon as they ended, and not to mention his vocals just did nothing for me either. It had its moments here and there but it just wasn't it. Still not a 1 though cause I'd rather listen to this any day of the week than some of the other albums from this list that I've listened to. 2/5
I didn’t recall why I never listened to this one much. Not my favorite by them
Not for me.
Many people will probably hate me for this, but I think Radiohead is one of the most overrated bands ever. To me they’re nothing special — not even high quality. This album is simply shit. While listening I felt bored, annoyed, and numb the whole time. There’s not a single good song on the entire record. The sound is always the same repetitive, dreary atmosphere, the lyrics feel like random fragments that don’t go anywhere, and Thom Yorke’s dull, whiny vocals just grate on you. It’s like they’re saying slightly different but basically the same texts over the exact same gloomy instrumental every time. The whole thing is dull, pretentious, and completely forgettable. I couldn’t even use it to fall asleep because it kept annoying me instead of relaxing me. I get that some people love this experimental, artsy side of Radiohead, but for me Amnesiac is just another example of why I don’t get the hype. Overrated, boring, and a chore to sit through. Hard skip.
I've never listened to Radiohead that much because something about the idea of being a Radiohead fan sounds annoying and embarrassing, so I was surprised that I actually liked this quite a lot. I only ended up saving the first track, some song title that mentions sardines, on my main current playlist, but the rest was good too. It's less generic than I expected, I don't think I will ever be very passionate about this band but they're not bad.
I’m not a big fan of theirs but I do like this record
Meh
it sounds experimental but they never found the sound that clicked so they just threw all the practice songs on the album anyway
4.1 it took me several listens to get into at the time admittedly, but when it sinks in it leaves you extremely fulfilled. Starts off extremely well, the two openers are phenomenal. Admittedly a slight dip with Pulk/Pull, but I can appreciate that more since getting a lot more into experimental electronica in the last two decades. After that there are several standouts - I Might be Wrong, Morning Bell, Spinning Plates. Even my formerly least favourite track on the album, the closer, got a new lease of life when it was used extremely well as the closer of a Peaky Blinders episode. Might be the 6th best Radiohead album, but still a fantastic offering. Not many bands can say that.
I can see why some find the weirdness of this album off-putting, especially songs like Packt Like Sardines, Pulk/Pull, Hunting Bears, and Like Spinning Plates. But alongside these odd (but interesting) songs are some of Radiohead’s best (I Might Be Wrong, Pyramid Song, and You and Whose Army), as well as a couple of good jams in the form of Knives Out and Dollars and Cents. I think the only real weak link here is Morning Bell (of which there is a much better version on Kid A). I think what may be off-putting to some people is the lyrics - they often sound nonsensical, and are sometimes a bit mumbled, and that can come across as pretentious (if interpreted as “what I’m saying is important and if you don’t understand it that’s your problem”). But I think the lyrics are often meant to be surreal, like half-remembered details from a dream. If you don’t like that imagery, you’re probably not going to appreciate the lyrics. Also - if you think these songs are weird, listen to the B-sides for this album.
Good to work to
Very intense. And kinda whiny. Wish I could give 3.5 but rounding down
Niet mijn favo Radiohead, maar oerdegelijk
Radiohead always has this recognizable sound. Definitely visible here. Very somber. Morning Bells/Amnesiac and Like Spinning Plates were my standouts. 6.5/10.
I remember getting this album in 2001 or so and thinking Radiohead were over. Such a comedown after the run from Bends to Kid A. They rebounded with In Rainbows but they have not been at the same level as they were for their golden run. Happily this is better than I remembered it. I might have listened twice back in the day, but I enjoyed this overall
I liked Knives Out but pretty much nothing else
There's times where i get it, and times I definitely don't get it. Pyramid Song would be my limit on liking something that's a bit more off kilter, and Knives Out was good. Knowing some other Radiohead hits i might like another album a little more but probably not by a lot.
I’m a fan of Radiohead, but not sure why this one made the list. There’s a few songs I like, but it definitely feels like the leftovers of Kid A at times. Rating 5/10 Favorite song: You and whose army?
Nice, but the songs are not as memorable as on Kid A or OK Computer.
I still don't get Radiohead. The music is OK to listen to in the background, but it just doesn't resonate with me on any notable level. My apologies to any Radiohead fans that read this—just speaking from my heart. ★★
Half-baked in the guise of “experimental”. Composition sounds forced. Reminds me of Sondheim. Clearly, this album was very influential on subsequent artists (picking up major Alt J)
Radiohead er et af de bands jeg ikke ved, om jeg nogensinde bliver kæmpe fan af, selvom jeg har givet dem 2 5’ere og har nydt alt jeg har hørt med dem. Det bliver aldrig helt ved mig. Den her kunne sagtens være en der bliver bedre hvis jeg kommer tilbage til den
Der er jo nok et par numre på den her som er lidt for out there og det er jo nok lidt for all over the place, men det er stadig en meget stor 4er for de fleste numre er fantastiske. Bliver bedre og bedre hver gang jeg hører den
More experimental than some of the others. Pyramid song is one of their best songs.
не самый мой любимый альбом у радиотапка, но хорош
Ei
My SCORCHING hot take is that this is the better half of Kid A. From the jump, this record is foreboding and I love that. The opening track sounds like someone tightly wound and about to snap, "You And Whose Army?" sounds like it IS the snap, and by the end it sounds like the reflection of someone totally broken. It's all gloomy and dark and creepy and perfect. It's like The Wall, if The Wall were utterly abstracted and nonspecific (and also, musically, better). Or The Downward Spiral, if it were Radiohead instead. I dunno, whatever it is, it rules. I have no doubt this is an extremely acquired taste. For me, though, it's the ideal sad dad record. Can't get enough of this.
I don't know what I thought they sounded like, but it wasn't this.
Some songs are supremely good. "Packt," and "I Might Be Wrong" securely fit into Radiohead's best space as strange, surreal, but still accesible alt rock. Other songs are tough to get through, to say the least: "Pulk" comes to mind. And then you have the Radiohead special of quizzical alt rock with sinister riffs, ghostly Yorke vocals, and plenty of reverb everywhere. Those are still good, but they're not the showstoppers like the first-mentioned songs.
I enjoyed this album and find I appreciate Radiohead’s unique and haunting sound.
I listened to this with my 9 year old and he liked this more than me but noted that the music was good but the singing all sounded the same. That is as apt a crticism of Radiohead as I can make. The music can be interesting but when its just Tom moping his way through it really drones on amd is not enjoyable nor is it unique or groundbreaking. The best song "Hunting for Bears" is really short but it does break from the rest of the album by having a different musical style and no mopey singing.
Not my tempo.
Track seven and I can’t take this shit anymore. I’ll never understand why people love this band so much.
I really dislike the electronic knob twiddling era of Radiohead. The run of albums they had in the early 2000s were monster hits with critics and fans, and here we are decades later and who the hell even have these albums on regular rotation? When was the last time you ever heard these tracks? Anyway, Amnesiac is probably the more palatable of the series, but that's not saying much.
Qué decir de Radioheah, por favor!! Es una de mis bandas favoritas y no me canso de escuchar cada uno de sus discos. Amnesiac es una joyita medio infravalorada de esta banda británica, y la verdad es que es un viaje bastante experimental que, en lo personal, me encanta de principio a fin. Tiene temazos que no siempre se mencionan tanto dentro de su discografía, pero que son verdaderas obras de arte, como por ejemplo "Dollar and Cents", "Pyramid Song", "You and Whose Army?", "I Might Be Wrong", "Knives Out", "Life in a Glasshouse", "Like Spinning Plates" y mi favorita del álbum, "Morning Bell/Amnesiac". En resumen le doy un 9/10.
I love Radiohead but not this album tbh… Too obscure for me I fear. Fav song is ‘Life In a Glasshouse’.
Hmmm. Decent, because Radiohead is great but hard to get into many songs. Great sound ofc but again, there were many songs I found trouble fully enjoying.
slow, lay on floor, dark room, slow breathing
This is number 2 from Radiohead on this list for me, I would imagine that there is another one following this. I feel like Radiohead has to be one of the most overrated bands out there, but maybe that's just me. I said in my other review that I don't dislike them, I'm just indifferent and that still holds true - this album is just flat boring. It has nothing at all that holds your attention. I don't mind music that you have to work to understand, in fact I love that kind of thing, but that's not what this is. There are high spots and things that I like about this record but I don't even think it's one of Radiohead's better attempts. I always want to be surprised by Radiohead every time I listen to them and I never am. They are undoubtedly great musicians but their music just lacks whatever it is that I connect with in music I love. And this record in particular falls way short for me. 2.25/5
Great.
Lovely listen!
Es un álbum totalmente blanco y negro. Los temas buenos son buenísimos y los malos son malísimos, pero valió la pena escucharlo
3/10
It's Radiohead, it's good. Not their finest of course, but no complaints. Fave track: You and Whose Army?
Would have to be amongst the greatest B-sides of all time. More of a companion album to Kid A than anything else. 4/5
Liked the Pyramid Song for the piano, Amnesiac for the percussion, and Life in a Glasshouse for the horns, piano, real music, not synthesized to death like the rest of the album. The whiny, flat, off key vocals were depressing and just plain irritating.
Muy experimental la producción. Siento que no hay cosas muy concisas. Las letras se pierden en todo el sonido. Es muy de los 2000 en el sentido de buscar cosas nuevas.
*Pyramid song I might be wrong Knives out
To me this is when Radiohead started to get interesting.
Radiohead may be the most creative, inventive band of their generation. Amnesiac is one of their most boundary-pushing albums, full of chilly textures and electronic experiments. But is it one I would put on again and again? -- no.
Meh. Me aburrió bastante la verdad. Hay mejores cosas de la banda en mi opinión.
buena instrumentación, pero en lo personal me gustan las canciones mas cantadas
I need to listen to more radiohead as this is 01 with all the sounds industrial tecno were using in uk back in the 80/90, not revolutionary at all, more like a boring prick just to late to the party
Catch up #9 October 16 2026 Very darkly energetic. Songs vary from piano to electronic to almost Spanish guitar swing throughout the runtime. It’s creative and smooth- I enjoyed it a lot.
Gran oportunidad para recordar lo garompa y sobrevalorada que me parece Radiohead. Un espanto…
A really difficult one to grade. This would be a five star album for almost any other artist in the world. The experimentation, crazy effects, unique song structures, and wild swings of creativity show Radiohead pushing almost every boundary. Yet, you can’t help but notice all the best songs from this era still ended up on kid A.
This mostly sounds like music. I’ll call that a win for a Radiohead album.
this project in general has totally expanded my music tastes but it has also shown me I am just not a Radiohead-head :/ Wouldn’t turn this off nor would I put it on
Not there best but good
Art rock igjen. Det første Radiohead-albumet jeg møter på i dette prosjektet, og et av de få jeg ikke allerede har lyttet noe særlig til. Samme lydbilde som Kid A. Jeg har alltid syntes at Radiohead har laget nydelig, men også forholdsvis kjedelig musikk. Sett bort fra to elendige låter, Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors og Hunting Bears, er dette overraskende engasjerende. Top 3: Like In a Glasshouse, Pyramid Song, I Might Be Wrong
Pretty good. All Radiohead albums are Radiohead albums and this one is no different.
Compared to every other Radiohead release it isn't particularly melodic or experimental. And just like its title it was one of those albums which I listened to but can't tell you anything that really happened.
This probably found me on a wrong day, because it sounds like I should give it a 5/5. Sadly I just didn't feel it.
Strange and interesting album with few beautiful songs and many that I just didn't get into or understand. Best track was Pyramid Song.
Life in glasshouse é a melhor musica do álbum na minha opinião, misturando jazz e melancolia desesperadora. E Hunting Bears também me chamou atenção, uma vibração de caça mesmo. Mas o restante do album eu não gosteo
This is weird. This is hard for my brain to listen to. Very experimental. Electronic music is not my cup of tea but I do appreciate the amount of work that would have gone into an album like this. There were only 2 songs that I would probably listen to again. I felt like I was losing my mind
I am a certified Radiohead enjoyer, but this ain't their best work
Fuck yeah, Radiohead
ahhh radiohead. pyramid song, knives out... exceptional songs! I might be wrong stood out to this time around, thats the new playlisted track from here. Overall will have to give a 3 however! All in all a few skips and or forgettable songs, with an unforgettable pyramid shaped song in there too. Not my favourite radiohead album and thats okay! Still an enjoyable listen that i return to once in a blue moon!
A Radiohead album I've never listened to. Good, but not their best.
2.5 Not for me. Liked/s: Knives Out, Pyramid Song
strange
Ik heb een LP vier-dubbelaar van Radiohead, en het meeste wat ik van ze ken (naast de bekendste nummers), ken ik daarvan. Daar staan echter maar 2 tracks van dit album op (van de in totaal 29 tracks), dus dit album zet ik alsnog redelijk blanco aan. Ik ben gevoellig voor muziek met veel laagjes en een goede productie, dus track 1 is al meteen smullen. Aphex Twin invloeden. Track 2 is dus één van de twee nummers die ik al ken en die is prachtig. Daarna moet de experimenteerkriebel even wat ruwer gekrabt worden. Fuck it, ik hoef niet elke track hier te gaan noemen. Ik steven af op een dikke 5. Dit is toch vet.
Less interesting than Kid A. More on the electronic side (or just felt like it?). Some highlights: - Pyramid song - I Might be wrong - Knives Out - Morning Bell
It was good, It didn't catch me completely, since the sounds are ambient-like, and more in line with the flow of the albums, not my favorite but I appreciate a few of them.
3.5
Me gusta cómo el álbum se mete en algo medio raro, como en una realidad alterna, con sonidos experimentales que se sienten fuera de lugar pero a propósito. No conecto del todo con lo lento y melancólico, pero se me hace interesante hacia dónde va y lo que intenta hacer; también siento que son de esos álbumes que entre más los escuchas mas los comprendes y más te gustan, un gusto adquirido.
they're so sad.
It's OK. Not my kind of music, but pleasant to listen regardless.
Sonically proficient lyrically lacking
nice but dark
I’ve always loved this album. While it often gets compared to its counterpart, Kid A, I consider Amnesiac a more cohesive album. Kid A comes across more like a collection of songs than an album. Regardless, I’m a Radiohead fanatic and consider both five star albums!
Good songs but kinda repeating
I like it, kinda short tho
A good album, too many purely instrumental songs and parts of songs for my liking though
If only Radiohead stuck to maximalism. They would be one of my favorite bands. But they didn’t, so, naturally, my only resort is complaining about it on the internet. But really, their maximalist songs (examples from this particular album: Pyramid Song, You and Whose Army?) are so fucking chills inducing. I wish we could get more of this from them instead of what they usually prefer. Radiohead is one of the only bands (besides Swans, off the top of my head) who are capable of producing music that is so my thing as well as music that’s so not my thing. I don’t mind the atmosphere in their music most of the time. I just don’t enjoy how quiet a lot of their songs are. Most of their albums, this one included, are a mishmash of songs I find incredible as well as some that I think are kinda meh. I like a lot of their music, but there isn’t a single album I find wholly satisfying. 7/10
Radiohead's The Bends is one of my favourite albums of all time, so I feel a little disappointed to give Amnesiac quite low rating. It's definitely not one of their better works. I already knew I wasn't a big fan of their works past 2000, and I have listened to a couple songs from this album before, but really the only part of the album that I really like are the instrumentals. You And Whose Army? and Knives Out were really good listens though, but most of the other songs were kind of meh. The songs are sort of underwhelming in a way? They start off good and build up towards something, but most never really seem to reach it if that makes sense. It's just a pretty forgettable album.
radiohead second album lol ,l makes me feel like i'm in a movie
Decent
Really great album, musically. No hits though.
Pyramid Song You and Whose Army? I Might Be Wrong Knives Out Like Spinning Plates Life in a Glasshouse
already listened to it
4.5/5. During the Kid A sessions, Radiohead recorded enough material for a double album but opted to cut down to a more standard length record, becoming 2000’s Kid A. however in 2001 we’d get to hear a lot of those cut tracks in the form of the sister-record Amnesiac. And honestly, I think Amnesiac is better than Kid A. Takes the electronics from those sessions but makes it feel much more claustrophobic, leading to a record that often feels slightly unsettling. This unease is felt best on songs like “dollars and cents” or “Like Spinning Plates.” And there’s of course “Pyramid Song” which is a moment of beauty on the album in what feels like an odd time signature but actually isn’t. When the drums finally kick in on that song it’s fantastic. Another highlight for me is the closer “Life in a glasshouse” which sees the band take in some jazz influence leading to a song that sounds like nothing else in their catalogue. Fantastic record overall, only weak spot is maybe the interlude tracks (pulk/pull revolving doors an hunting bears.)
I can’t get into Radiohead. I have tried and tried and tried. Maybe because I didn’t listen to them in their prime? I have no idea. Weak neutral.
cool
6.5/10 Not my thing but decent
Nice.
I'll take "music I refuse to understand or appreciate" for $1,000, Alex!
Their most boring record.
This is your free pass, reader. You do not need to listen to Amnesiac before you die. I don't believe there is any universe outside of the one we live in where Amnesiac must be heard before death. There are good songs on the album, but 80% of this record is musical backwash--outtakes and rehashes from Kid A (of which I'm not a big fan anyway, but that's another story.) Life in a Glasshouse is a beautiful, unique piece of work, and Pyramid Song is a must-hear across their entire discography. But the majority of the album is sonic experiments that don't deserve to be fleshed out into full songs. They don't even try to flesh out Hunting Bears! When compared to Kid A, which it must be given the context in their discography, Amnesiac has the lesser version of Morning Bell, the lesser guitar interlude...it even has two songs that sound essentially the same. I am a Radiohead fan, and I don't have it in me to hate this album completely, but I have to give it this score to just let this site know. It does not need to be here. You do not need to hear this before you die, you don't need to hear this at all.
Not as good as Kid A but still very interesting and good
Noise machine. 2/5
It's a fine Radiohead album. That's it, really. Not bad by any means, but it really is just 'Kid B'. 8.5/10
BOOORINGGGG. some parts are pretty good but it gets genuinely bad at times so it evens out
Brutal. Radiohead is crazy overrated
An interesing album. Not really my type. I really liked life in a glasshouse and hnting bears. Love the slow music , it's calming.
Some weird songs, but radiohead is always amazing.
A number of absolute belters packed into the middle section, though it lacks the spark of the albums that came before and after.
Now that we have had all 6(!) Radiihead on the list, I shall rank them: #6 - In Rainbows #5 - Amnesiac #4 - The Bends #3 - Kid A #2 - Hail to the Thief #1 - OK Computer Accordingly, this is a 2.5
yes ok thank you that'll do now gentlemen you're entering nick cave territory for appearances on this list
Not my favorite Radiohead album but still enjoyable. I think I’d rank it a 4/10 but going with a 3. Felt like they’re getting just too weird here for me to really like it. Some crazy jazz feels on life is a glasshouse, such a different vibe for them and heavy electric vibes throughout. Fave songs: knives out, Life in a glass house
💘 Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box 💘 I Might Be Wrong
Not a massive fan
Very strange, experimental, and … amelodic.
Легко прослуховується і має свою атмосферу. Проте якісь конкретні треки з першого прослуховування мені не запам'яталися
This album is a Radiohead 4, which is like a California 8. The highlights of the album (Pyramid Song, You And Whose Army, I Might Be Wrong, Knives Out, Life In A Glass House) are absolutely stellar - beautiful and at times haunting, and up there with some of Radiohead's best work. In many ways it would feel like a more natural transition between OK Computer and Kid A, but then again that would take away from the WTF moment of hearing Kid A for the first time. If I'm being super critical, the track ordering feels slightly off. There's maybe one too many album tracks, and they either hit too early and break the stride (Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors") or too close together and late on (Hunting Bears and Like Spinning Plates) which makes it feel like the album tails off, and kind of maroons Life In A Glass House. Having heard the live version of Like Spinning Plates I kinda wish they had used a piano based version.
not a fun of Radiohead, guess it's a fine listen, but I just can't force myself to like any of it
I can appreciate the technical brilliance of the music, but it's just not for me.
This album makes me concerned for Thom Yorke. Like, is the poor guy ok? He sounds like he's just been shot up with Novocain before walking into the studio to record. Then the combination of music, album cover art, and lyrics on this album make me feel like I'm trapped in dystopian pit of despair (and not in a cathartic, good good way.) The first time I tried to listen to this, I had to turn it off and walk away from the computer. I really disliked it. I had to come back several hours later with a fresh mind in order to give it another fair shot. Now I really borderline hate it? It took my full attention to get through the whole thing in one sitting. My hope is that there are better Radiohead albums on this list because this one is for the bin, not The 1001 list. If someone can please explain what I'm missing about this album being "so good", please do. I don't see why anyone would put this album on the Top ### lists or give it all the awards it's received. I lived through the 2000s and I didn't see it to be worthwhile then. It's 2026, I don't think it's worthwhile now. Album's saving grace: "Life In a Glasshouse" 🎺
avid radiohead enjoyer
Ooh very nice but not as good as like OK Computer
A man walks into a mechanic shop and says “my car won’t stop making these weird noises“ The mechanic looks at the car, opens the hood, starts the engine and looks back at the man and says “have you tried taking the Radiohead CD out?“ I LOVE Radiohead but this album is the reason that joke exists. There’s some good stuff but a lot of the throw aways from Kid A too. 5/10 rounded down
I should really listen to Radiohead more. I know I’d like them a lot. This album is a bit repetitive, but it’s incredibly atmospheric. It sets a mood and totally submerges the listener in it, in such a cool way. They kind of feel like soundtracks in a way because of that. That’s neither a compliment nor a criticism, just an observation. Yeah, this album is good. I guess my biggest criticism is that, like I mentioned before, it gets repetitive at times. And Radiohead has better stuff than this.
It's Kid A, but sinister.
Probably my lowest scoring Radiohead album on this list.
Shoutout kid amnesiac exhibition
Easily my least favorite Radiohead album besides Pablo Honey and i'm generally surprised that's not consensus. First four tracks are great, cool new version of Morning Bell, aside from that I mostly skip this.
All time impeccable album
Great album, love The Faces
This is the fifth album from British band Radiohead, from 2001. It’s the first entry from them on this list - how many more will there be? To me this is a hodgepodge of alternative/electronica, and seems to be more mellow than their earlier music. I like that the band’s name is taken from a Talking Heads song. Overall it’s ok, 3.5 stars.
Yay!! Radiohead are so weird. I don't have this album because I found their singles in this era annoying. But it's all relative, because I like them a lot better than the majority of artists on this list. 'Knives Out' even has a movie named after it. Still, if I'm being honest, this is a 3 for me. Too plaintive, no hooks. I like the instrumentation though. Highlight: 'Life in a Glasshouse'
I really appreciate the experimental spirit of this album, but I think the result of these experiments was a bit lackluster. Overall it’s a little boring with some interesting moments. I’m not really a fan of Thom Yorke’s vocal flavor, but when I mentally recalibrated his singing as texture, it became less obtrusive. The atmosphere of Amnesiac is unique, but as a whole, it’s not for me.
A lot of weird stuff which I like but I don’t hear anything that’ll get repeat listening. Enjoyed more on a second listen with headphones.
I was kind of hoping more from this Radiohead album, but I just couldn't seem to find what I was looking for.
Better than I remembered. There's some all-timers, 1 or 2 songs that didn't need to be there, and a sequencing issue.
Ikke for meg. Noen litt kule partier og whatnot, men ikke noe jeg har spesielt lyst til å høre på igjen. Sterk 2.
Dette likte eg. Likte sounden og variasjonen mellom jazzy, elektro og alternative. Fekk lyst å prøve å lære meg Triangles på piano 😬
Vakkert, stemningsfyllt. Radiohead-sound.
Wasn’t in the headspace for this album on this first go around, so maybe I’ll change my mind later. Dull and forgettable. I’ve always thought the radio head glaze is crazy, but at least for good albums. This just wasn’t that enjoyable of a listen at the moment. Favs: I might be wrong, Knives out
This is Comedown Machine by the Strokes, but better. Literally, you and whose army sounds like Life is simple in the moonlight(which is angles but whatever). Ethereal. The lyrics, the electronics, and the genre mixing. Hunting bears with its country sound and 60s guitar, it sounds like The Last of Us. I read online that pulk pull is like hated. I kinda like it, I like the similarity and the atmosphere. I would only listen to this in an album setting, but I love the way the music flickers. I think this might be my favorite Radiohead album. I really like this. The lyrics stutter; the album's concept and vibe is very well curated. It does feel like memory loss, and the last track really pulls it all together about the state we are in, and you can never forget to stay alert because you are not safe.
knives out omggg
might be the worst album ive ever heard. The soundtrack to a bank transfer. And his wailing, jesus.
Kaip visada radiohead'ui, hauntingly beautiful.
Easily one of the best albums of all time.
😐 gotta be in the mood
I remember Radiohead from the ’90s as a progressive-alternative pop band. There’s not much of that here; “Amnesiac” is more suited for falling asleep to. The songs aren’t even bad (“Knives Out” could even be called good), but somehow each one feels like it’s missing at least 10 BPM. It might work as a soundtrack for taking sleeping pills, but I don’t have the right occasions for that. It would work for me personally as elevator music, but first of all, I don’t have an elevator, and second, it’s probably too unconventional for the mainstream. Nice try, but for me, this record is an oversized sleeping pill. As I’ve seen, there are more Radiohead albums coming—that could get exhausting...
Yuck. Not interested.
I really enjoyed the melodies on this album. It's exactly the kind of alternative rock I like! It feels very dreamy and dark at the same time. Edit: I listened to Kid A just a few days later, and I found it far more consistent, powerful and groundbreaking ! Rating: 3.5/5
1/3. Literally can’t understand a word that Thom Yorke is singing. The music is definitely interesting at times, but his vocals just take me out of it completely. Not sure why since I love Julian Casablancas and he’s hard to understand to, but this album just missed for me.
I mean it’s alright. Kinda meh for Radiohead. You and what army reminded my brain rotted mind of that Nick eh 30 clip.
Lite svagare än de tidigare på listan men inte dåligt!
Det märks att Kid A och Amnesiac spelades in samtidigt och till sist faktiskt också åter-släpptes som det dubbelalbum som det från början var tänkt att vara. Helt klart ett album som kan kräva några lyssningar och även om jag tycker att Kid A överlag är starkare så finns det mycket att hämta här också och vid den jazziga avslutningen så är det nära toppen.
