Hail To the Thief

Only Radiohead album with no skips

Love RH. Never heard. Was okay

Smá leyndarmál. Fyrst þá þótti mér Radiohead afspyrnuleiðinlegir. Mér fannst Thom svo vælinn en þeir hafa unnið vel á þótt ég hafi ekki fylgst með þeim. Það kom mér þess vegna á óvart að þeir væru komnir í smá raftónlistarfíling sem virkar bara ágætlega með vælusöng Thoms.

eher schleppend, eher nicht das glanzlicht von Radiohead.

Wieso auch Radiohead mehrfach in dieser Liste vertreten ist verschliesst sich mir.

Yikes. Radiohead isn't that great and this is by far the worst album.

Dude, this was weird. I mean weird dude. Listening: 5/10 Background: 6/10 Is this even music: 5/10 I liked transformer yesterday more. 3 star. Bro this is weird.

I was not a big Radiohead fun... Before listening to this album. This one is dope, man. The previous one I've been listening to was "The Bends" and the only you want to do listening "The Bends" is too kill yourself. However, listening to the "Hail To the Thief" you want to live again. Love it!

I've never been a huge Radiohead fan. This album is pretty good. 3.5 rounded up

- this was the first Radiohead album I listened to (to have something to talk about with a guy I liked who was very into the band, go figure) and I've listened to it a lot over the last ten years. I think it's frequently ranked lower than albums like In Rainbows or Kid A, but I still think it was a solid early 2000s rock-focused effort that had just enough Radiohead weirdness and intrigue to be listenable to a decently wide audience without venturing into alienation territory - in other words, this feels more appropriate for listening in the car or while on the subway than something like "In Limbo" or "Motion Picture Soundtrack," which seem like tracks that are incongruent with being just background music for anything. over time, I've come to strongly believe that music has to align with the context in which you're hearing it for the first time in order to have any chance at resonating, and "Backdrifts" or "Go To Sleep" are much shallower entry points than something from their previous two albums - to that point, the three-song set at the end (Myxomytosis, Scatterbrains, and Wolf at the Door) was my first exposure to the band at all, and it was a better introduction than something more artistic that might have been a turnoff - the mix of electric and organic drum sounds throughout the whole album drives everything, which I love -- danceable, yet not boring, repetitive, or predictable. listening on headphones brings out the small eerie sound effects underneath most of the tracks that aren't immediately noticeable, yet add a lot to the atmosphere and mood of each song - anyway, 5 stars, I will always love this album and add it to my fall music rotation every September-October for the rest of time

I can't really rate this objectively. It's not really a 5. There are some mid songs, but it's a classic to me. The mood, the sounds, the flow. Perfect.

First repeat artist! I think I have this at 5 in my Radiohead ranks. I know they don’t love this one, but I do.

Top 100 favorite album of all time. The juxtaposition between their sludgy ambient electronica and the manic alt rock of their early years, makes this a wonderful addition to their catalog. A near flawless record.

Я слышал что композитор ПТА участвует в некой группе и что у них должны быть депрессивные завывания - вроде не обманули

Ну что, все кто поставит ниже 5 не шарят?) Сложно оценивать альбомы группы, которую все признали гениями без права на оспаривание. Хотя я и не собирался оспаривать. Но все же для меня это совершенно не альбомная группа. Явное исключение - In Rainbows, который мне нравится от начала до конца. В остальном же это всегда чередование гениальных композиций, двигающих человечество вперед, с проходняками. На этом альбоме чередование для меня получилось буквальное - нравятся почти все четные песни, плюс несколько нечетных. В отличие от двух предыдущих альбомов, здесь электронные треки перемежаются с роковыми. Но что удивительно, электронные треки мне здесь понравились больше. Хотя в целом какой-то прямой зависимости нет, просто в каких-то треках либо приятная мелодия, либо мрачная, но захватывающая атмосмфера, либо интересное решение в аранжировке, либо цепляющий нестандартный такт, и тд. Говорят, чтобы полюбить альбом Radiohead, нужно послушать его 40 раз. У меня это наверно был плюс-минус 15й. И он действительно понравился мне больше, чем 14й. Длительная пауза в прослушиваниях наверняка тоже повлияла. Хотя это все еще не In Rainbows, но ощущение, что во время прослушивания превозносишься над миром, все равно есть. Пока не послушал еще 25 раз, это только 4, но с пометкой "все равно гениально".

Просите, друзья, но я ненавижу радиохэд 🪦

Норм, но вы бы знали, как у меня сейчас голова болит (не из-за альбома)

Music for insufferable persons So am I Но зная, какие альбомы радиоголов ждут нас дальше, не могу поставить выше 4

раньше очень много слушал radiohead, но достаточно долго не возвращался, чтобы плотно послушать вновь. к моему удивлению на этом альбоме собраны мои любимые песни группы: 2+2=5, myxomatosis, a wolf at the door, there there... прослушал, кроме любимых песен - больше почти ничего и нет интересного, но все равно 4.5 поставлю возможно пришло время переслушать дискографию,

i went somewhere

EIGHT OUT OF TEN IDK ABOUT ANY OPINION

Needs a little trim, still a solid record. 7/10

Unclear why this is here, it's not much different than their before or after, so hardly groundbreaking in any way. The best thing to say about it, as a Radiohead fan, is that it sounds just like Radiohead.

Probably my favorite Radiohead album. That's not saying a ton, but I listened and enjoyed it. I can definitely see how this influenced other bands that I'm really into.

Maybe Radiohead’s slowest, moody, ambient albums with a bit of country twang. Still pretty enjoyable. I think I listened to this album in its best form, late at night in a taxi on the way home. Backdrifts was a highlight, as well as the crescendo of Go to Sleep (which seems like the antithesis to its name unless you want to shove a strong sleeping pills in), the almost emo Where I End and You Begin (with its impeccable bass guitar), and the harrowing There, There (like a broken lullaby). This type of album is also a film soundtrack curator’s delight (We Suck Blood gives real Season 5 Peaky Blinders). Overall, the moodiness of the album doesn’t make it easy listening on a day to day basis, but still a great listen.

I know Radio Head is innovative and widely praised. Somehow, when I listen to it I can both understand it and not love it. I'll give it another go, but I can't say I absolutely loved this album.

Loved it. Haunting but care free. Amazing night driving music

Assuming the "1001 Albums..." Wikipedia page is correct, I've now listened to every Radiohead album in the generator, and I can now take a sigh of relief. As usual, the album was more of a vibe than an album. It had a few enjoyable moments, but it was mostly boring, forgettable, and just nonsensical noises. Favorite Track: "2+2=5". Favorite Radiohead album in the generator: "The Bends".

2.5

I like Radiohead, but this album is not their best.

I've listened to this Radiohead album the least. Some great tracks on here and some that is not for me

Excellent - I think I like this more than Kid A even. I always enjoy it when they blend their electronic sounds with the rock and roll instruments. Need to spin this some more.

Jeg vet jeg liker det her

Favorite Track: Myxomatosis

Baladas agradables

This sucks

Mucho mejor que el último que escuché; y como no lo recuerdo bien, seré benevolente y le pongo un 4

After the success of OK computer I feel like this band decided they could do whatever they want and release it and people would gobble it up as art and creative and awesome. This is awful. It is drivel and lazy sounding. Cannot stand anything they have made since OK Computer which is unbelievably great

2+2=5 - 2/5 Sit down. Stand up - 2/5 Sail to the moon - 3/5 Backdrifts - 3/5 Go to sleep - 3/5 Where I end and you begin - 4/5 We suck young blood - 1/5 The gloaming - 2/5 There, there - 4/5 I will - 2/5 A punch up at a wedding - 2/5 Myxomatosis - 1/5 Scatterbrain - 2/5 A wolf at the door - 1/5

For me, Radiohead are either incredible or incredibly dull and very difficult to listen to. Sadly, this album falls into the latter. A 2 seems a little harsh but I simply wouldn't relisten.

I heard it, I don't remember it.

There's so much noise happening here, and I'm just not sure I like the mesh it all creates. Yorke's voice is particularly grating on this, which maybe is appropriate considering the subject matter - although, on that topic, I find myself struggling to identify the point of this record; I understand what they wanted to say, I'm just not sure they really said it. Sail To The Moon is absolutely spectacular, the piano is so beautiful, and the whole thing just convalesces together so well.

hail indeed! great album, radiohead is always a good listen

Mid

The logical conclusion to Kid A and OK Computer. It closed the golden years of radiohead where almost every album was 5*. As radiohead has always been extremely solid on album it's still the case here : the correct blend of rock and electronic music that very few group where able to master as much as them. Favorite Songs: it's difficult to chose some songs that stand out more than others

This album is absolutely fire but it didn't blow me off my feet. This is a perfect 4.5 out of 5 album. There are so many good songs like Sit Down. Stand up, Punch Up at The Wedding and Myxomatosis (which gets bonus points because it's a med school reference). That being said I think some songs are a bit bland, especially considering I have listened to some other Radiohead that is really, really good. Not quite my first five, but a damn good album. Fav song: Sit Down. Stand up (but man Punch Up at The Wedding is coated) Least Fav: N/A

Radiohead. Radio head. I didn't know much of them growing up besides when my brother would play the song Creep on Guitar Hero when I was a kid. I didn't pay any attention to them until a poetry professor in college mentioned them. After I realized I knew nothing, I began to listen to them beginning with their first album until I got through them all. I kept returning to The Bends, OK Computer, Kid A, In Rainbows, and King of Limbs. Also became super obsessed with the off shoot The Smile and legitimately think A Light for Attracting Attention is one of the best albums of this decade. That said, I never returned much to Hail to the Thief even though it is very good. For some reason it feels like a "Radiohead album" but I think what attracts me to the others is how much it feels like an evolution or devolution or some kind of comment on the form they themselves crafted. This feels like a straightforward version of their sound. And that sound is epic, its almost more impressive that they can be so of themselves, and yet the album doesn't stick so much in my head. Perhaps for that very reason. Literally who am I to say it, but it isn't my favorite Radiohead album, and likely will never be.

Definitely overlong, but feels overrated as well. I enjoyed my time with it but probably won't be returning to more than a couple songs.

6.4 / 10

Even though I can't tell what the lyrics are half the time I still love the soundscapes that are created. Not my favourite Radiohead album though

Oscillated violently between strange & ethereal + atonal & noisy.

2 альбома за неделю от радиохед это, конечно, сказка. но на контрасте с компутером не так приятно слушается, конечно…

Where I End and You Begin has always been my favorite track on this album. I’ve listened to it countless times, and its hypnotic groove and growing sense of unease still feel completely unique to them. I also especially liked Backdrifts, The Gloaming, There There, and Myxomatosis. Even though The Bends and some of Radiohead’s earlier guitar-driven albums still rank higher for me personally, I continue to be amazed by how relentlessly they pursued their sound with almost obsessive intensity on every release. Few bands feel as untouchable or self-contained as Radiohead.

It may not be better than OK Computer but it is far better than its reputation. I say it’s their second best album and I’m sticking to it. Good day.

What if Coldplay but, hear me out, more whiney.

ok

tylsin radiohead

The album I know least well, mellow

It's Radiohead. Need I say more? Nay, I needn't.

No strong feelings for this record!! Much better Radiohead albums than this

2 + 2 always makes a five (stars)

hasta los genios se equivocan

there are two wolves inside you: one thinks thom yorke is a musical genius and one wants it to end, end, end, end, end,

A true terrible album. There wasn't one enjoyable song on here. I hated it from beginning to end. If I could give it negative stars I would.

Has some great trucks, but it’s the only Radiohead album one might consider bloated and overlong.

This isn't that far removed from the stuff I really like from Radiohead, but if anything that only makes me like those albums less.

probably Radiohead's worst, they experiment a lot but don't land a ton of it, and the sound itself isn't that interesting

Not as good as other Radiohead albums, but, come on.

It was ok. Nothing really grabbed me

Nur 4 stern will die andere radiohead albe viel besser sind im verhältnis

I have listened a lot to Radiohead and its a band that I will continue to listen to in the future. Although it was a fun experience today listening through an entire album this band is at its best a few songs at a time for me. Not a favorite band but they do have a lot of really good songs.

I really enjoyed this one. I’ve heard some Radiohead songs, but never a full album so it was a fun listen.

I mean, it’s Radiohead. So it’s good. But, going into this my expectations are higher than going into a random artist I’ve never heard of, this will my listening experience and also my score. I think my favorite track is ‘A Punch Up at a Wedding’, banger. Also like One of the things I like about Radiohead is how they have such a distinct style and they explore the full range within that style, each song is also distinct despite a shared style. And I know this is just how styles work, but I mean that Radiohead really have breadth within Also, the albums are cohesive, but not in a frustrating, repetitive way. Not sure why I like this, but I do. SECOND SIDE IS BETTER!

Not my favourite Radiohead album but still great. It may not be my go to but I enjoy discovering new things in each track every time.

Um dos melhores álbuns do Radiohead!

Se me ha hecho cuesta arriba

Strong 4

Unique production

love

again, Radiohead. just like some women. Loud and Whiney. their albums seem to last for an eternity.

I never understood the love affair with Radiohead. It's borderline unlistenable. There are some glimpses of genius, but it's mostly just boring head music. I guess if I did drugs I would feel differently.

Very methodical. The lyrics seemed to be drone on.

I was kind of surprised and moderately enjoyed it even though I wasn’t expecting to.

It's a good, not great, Radiohead album. It's still a solid 7.5/10 and I'm sure I'll come back to it again.

Love Radiohead but much of that time period politics

There are some absolute heights on here (2+2=5, There There, Myxomatosis, A Wolf At The Door) but also some pretty boring and bad songs (We Suck Young Blood, The Gloaming, A Punch Up At A Wedding). That, combined with the pretty lengthy runtime, makes for a Radiohead album that is not nearly as good as the run of albums before this. Luckily, they found their strengths back in the album that came after this.

Doesn't rank as highly for me as some of Radiohead's other albums but still a great listen. 2 + 2 = 5 is a banger.

Primer álbum de Radiohead que escucho completo y me gustó mucho, se nota la mezcla de rock alternativo con la electrónica de Kid A y Amnesiac que quisieron hacer y les salió increíble (si, se las historias de los álbums pero nunca los escuché enteros), también es un álbum con mucha carga política, no explica claramente a quien apunta pero eso hace que sea más interpretativas las críticas. La única que conocía era 2+2=5 que sigue manteniendose cómo mi favorita pero me gustaron muchos más temas, gran inicio en mi viaje por Radiohead.

I'm increasingly of the opinion that I hadn't paid enough attention to Radiohead before doing the 1001. I was aware of some of their bigger songs and had a passing familiarity with "OK Computer" but really didn't get a sense of the breadth of their musical ambition before having several of their albums on the 1001 list. Note that this particular record was on some editions of the 1001 but then dropped, presumably because there was just too many great Radiohead albums to pick from. In a similar vein, I'll give this four stars, but that's just because there are better Radiohead albums... this album is quite good.

First album I've regularly listened to on this project so far. My kind of music. Vocals are perfect accompaniment to the electronic creepy tunes.

hail

Still not getting Radiohead.

One of the weaker Radiohead albums, it is still good throughout but lacks the real standout moments. Not one that I’m reaching for very often.

I really love Radiohead's 'The Bands', 'OK Computer', and 'Kid A' but I never listened to any other album of theirs in full. Today's the day and I must say I don't love 'Hail To the Thief' as much as the other ones but I still find the record entrancing and moving. It is sadly as relevant today, if not more, as it was when it came out. Very well encapsulates the feeling of anxiety, uncertainty, and helplessness - the tone especially feels rather resigned than a call to action. There are great highlights (such as '2+2=5', 'There, There', 'A Wolf At the Door') but also noticeable lows ('Sit Down. Stand up', 'Backdrifts', and 'We Suck Young Blood' stick out to me the most). I think cutting a little off the tracklist would benefit the record.

Good, but doesn't reach the levels of their 90's masterpieces. 3.5

00’s Alternative Rock ⭐️2+2=5

This sounds different from the popular Radiohead songs, you can tell it's radiohead though. I'm listening to the first song currently and I like the transition from soft and powerful vocals to aggressive guitar and the sounds make you feel things. On the second song and I like how the vocals contrast with the background and how they maintain a steady beat that holds the song together. Not exactly my style of music at this part of the song but it was good. Third song I'm liking so far, again not the exact style of music I normally listen to but I enjoy this, I will have to finish it tomorrow though because it is late.

It doesn't have to be their best album to be a 5, right? This is another beautiful rendition of the signature Radiohead sound. What a treat. If I'm stuck on a deserted island, send me radiohead records

Solid background music where every song sounds almost identical to each other and so allows you to focus on whatever else you want to focus on rather than listening to Radiohead.

This album has weirdly given me more of an appreciation for OK Computer. Hail to the Thief is, unfortunately, not quite as good—though still nice. The album is a lot less melancholic, though still heavy, and the more experimental and diverse tracks don't feel as coherent. That being said, it is still a very solid project. It's just sad they made something way better as well

prachtig !!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this album, in fact its got moments of absolute brilliance. It does however (for me) lack the hooks that OK Computer has in spades. And that is fine, they are different records for a different place and time. While it is admittedly pretty damn great I don't feel the need to come back and pour over it the way I do with other Radiohead albums. A couple of these tracks are amongst their best work. Solid 4 star album.

Buen rock

Great album! 2+2=5 is my favorite.

Challenging listen. I don't have anything positive to say about this.

We really on a roll here this week

Plus another third of a star or so. Radiohead rocking.

Half of this was okay. The other half sounded like wailing and smacking spoons in a messy kitchen. I still don’t get Radiohead

Idk why, with Kid A & OK Computer both being considered not only Radioheads best album but “top 50 albums of all time” lists…..why do we get MORE Radiohead? I weirdly liked this one the most, but after hearing THE albums from the band, I don’t see the reasoning for more. Especially since none of them have realllllyyyyy brought enough variety to justify multiple albums. (True of half this list, but w/e, preaching to the choir)

The editor of this list is one lazy piece of shit. Absolutely no justification for another Radiohead album to be here .

It was interesting. Not spectacular, I prefer their earlier stuff. Struggling to see why I needed to hear this before I died?

It was good but wasn’t really in the mood for Radiohead

Not my favorite radio head record, but ok

When I think of bleak, atonal Radiohead, this album comes up. There are some bits but not enough. It's in between a two and three. I gave it a three because I hope Duckbill will still hang out with me. Top tracks: "There, There," "Sail to the Moon"

--2 + 2 = 5...creepy anger --Sit Down. Stand Up...a little repetitive but builds to a satisfying climax --Sail to the Moon...creepy beautiful --Backdrifts...one of the rare times when Thom's voice doesn't work for me --Go to Sleep...always liked this acoustic guitar opening --Where I End and You Begin...the bass is good but not one of their best --We Suck Young Blood...not an entertaining track but I'm pretty sure that's the point --The Gloaming...production is very cool --There, There...love the percussion/beat. each instrument isn't doing anything too special, but it all comes together real nice --I Will...more creepiness. the layering of York's voice is great --A Punchup at a Wedding...nice bass, but mid otherwise —Myxomatosis…interesting production but not a great song —Scatterbrain…probably should’ve been the album title —A Wolf at the Door…delete

Maybe my least favorite of theirs. It's kind of watered down imo. THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS

As always it's hit and miss with Radiohead post Kid A but this is more bleak and weaker than the excellent 'in rainbows'.

It is I the Radiohead hater, this album sucks.

Niet een van mijn favoriete radiohead albums maar nog steeds beter dan 90% wat op deze lijst staat. Ik geef het een 4,4 omdat je nog wat over moet houden voor de andere vijf die hier op staan.

Als je luistert naar Radiohead is het een beetje alsof je uit eten gaat bij een Michelinsterren restaurant, het maakt niet heel veel uit wat je voorgeschoteld krijgt maar het is van topkwaliteit. Dit album was wat minder bekent bij mij, het staat ook niet vol met bekende knalhits. Ondanks dat heb ik over t weekend veel naar dit album geluisterd en heb ik er erg van genoten. Het is allemaal zo muzikaal, creatief en van zon hoog niveau. Ik denk dat ik het vaker op ga zetten. 5 sterren

Controlled noise with occasional body moving grooves. Nothing memorable. Not my favorite Radiohead

this is ahh but I liked 2 songs so

Scott Tenorman's parents died for this?

Not their best but there were some undeniable moments.

5 Has never been my favorite of theirs but on this listen it really clicked

This is the album that radiohead imploded in on itself.

I’ve listened to this record a multitude of times, but I did relisten front to back yesterday. This may be the best Radiohead album to display their range- in a bad way. “ the gloaming” is the epitome of just making strange noises and calling it a song On on this record there are Also some of my favorites such as “There, There” and “Myxamatosis”. It is possibly one of my least favorite Radiohead records.

They always think they are different than other bands lol 4/5

Favourite Songs: Sit Down. Stand Up Where I End And You Begin There, There

Very good album although, as the band members have also mentioned, it is a bit too long. In any case, I find it pretty varied and I like the them. I particularly enjoyed: "2+2=5", "There, There", or "A Wolf In the Door" (any of those could be my favourite). I also enjoyed: "Sit Down, Stand Up", "Sail To The Moon", "Go To Sleep", "Wher I End And You Begin", or "Scatterbrain". Overall, I find this is a very easy rating: 4 stars. It is simply too good to be given only 3 stars, but it also clearly falls short (in particular due to its length and the not so inspired tracks) to reach 5 stars as other albums from the same band.

This is my third Radiohead listen of the project, and is the most recently released of the albums I've had generated. It melds the guitar-heavy sound used on "The Bends" with the electronic experimentation of "Kid A" without reaching the heights of either album. It feels rather mediocre for the most part, lacking the songwriting of The Bends and the atmosphere of Kid A. Lyrics are of a similar quality to most Radiohead lyrics. I don't know how essential this particular album is in the Radiohead discography, especially coming after their most seminal works. This could easily have been left off the list without much effect. However, it's not a terrible album, and it will still sound good to devout fans of Radiohead.

THE most overrated band in rocks history and they ll have all their albums in the list , they must be paying good money to PR

I am not a fan of Yorke's voice and of the handclaps, but this is a beautiful album that, litened through headphones, made me appreciate Radiohead for the first time. I really liked the usage of Tape loops and Ondes Martenot.

Amaze amaze amaze, never focused so hard in my life

A slow burn of interesting sounds, deep ideas and emotions

No

Out of all of the Radiohead records in this book, this is probably my least favorite, but "2 + 2 = 5" was one of my first Radiohead obsessions and I will always have a fondness for it.

As it stood this was one of 3 Radiohead albums I still have to listen to (technically I’ve started a moon shaped pool like 4 times, I’ve just never finished it), and I was really impressed with it. I feel like it’s their best blend of the electronic stuff and the rock stuff, even individual songs manage to do both at the same time, and they do it really well. It feels very ambitious, even if it’s not necessarily groundbreaking for them, and I just really love a lot of what they did here. It’s severely underrated, it should be in the conversation with their best. Favorites: Sit Down. Stand Up, A Punch Up at a Wedding, Myxomatosis

This album was Radiohead's release after the twin albums of Kid A and Amnesiac, Hail To the Thief has a lot more rock elements than those two but it still has quite a few electronic elements (just not as much as the previous two albums.) There are some really 'weird' stuff even for Radiohead standards like for example Thom just straight up repeating raindrops 50 times in a row ("Sit Down. Stand Up.") There are also some quirky melodies that I find just adoring like in "Backdrift" and "Myxomatosis" I'm also a big fan of the beats in "Sail to the Moon" and "The Gloaming" This is probably my second-least listened Radiohead album, I'd only heard it once before when I was going through Radiohead's discography about a year ago. So, I'm barely familiar with this one and I had forgotten what a lot of it actually sounds like, however I am hell of a lot more familiar with their other stuff; it's just Pablo Honey and Thief that I'm not familiar with. But all in all there is a really good mix of different sounds on here, I believe it's their most eclectic album ever. I am lot more open now to re-visiting this album even though it's fairly difficult right now to grasp. Highlight Song/s: "Sail To The Moon", "Backdrifts", "I Will" and "A Wolf At the Door"

Banger alert!

Zo'n underrated radiohead album... PEAK art!

👌

Très hétérogène comme album avec des mélodies qui cassent les codes, beaucoup de voix aigues qui se parlent et résonnent avec la musique comme des chants cosmiques, l'instrumental est assez intéressante. Expérimentations électroniques. La voix de Thom Yorke est puissante et saisissante.

Hail to the Thief is possibly the weakest Radiohead album. A couple cool tracks but nothing to write home about.

2 + 2 = 5 and We Suck Young Blood were pretty great, and the whole album fits my tastes pretty well. I probably should've paid more attention the the lyrics and the songs in general, but even with my brain mostly off this was mostly still pretty damn good

Rating: 2.4/5 2 + 2 = 5 - 4/5 Sit Down. Stand Up - 3/5 Sail to the Moon - 3/5 Backdrifts - 3/5 Go to sleep - 3/5 Where I End and You Begin - 2/5 We Suck Young Blood - 1/5 The Gloaming - 1/5 There, There - 2/5 I Will - 2/5 A Punch Up at a Wedding - 2/5 Myxomatosis - 2/5 Scatterbrain - 2/5 A Wolf At the Door - 3/5

Radiohead are a band I just do not 'get' at all. I try to give every album a fair chance but this was so incredibly dull. The only word I can find to describe this is 'meh'.

I mean. Its the best!

Really, really good. I think if this was the first Radiohead album I'd listened to I would have gotten into them way sooner. There's a little lull in the middle but it starts and finishes really strongly, probably best enjoyed on a rainy Thursday on a long train journey wearing decent headphones

You have not been paying attention

Their sixth album. Indie Rock / Rock. Radiohead are classed on here for me as a 'controversial artist'. My ratings for them are either very high or low. I'm putting this one in the middle. 2.5 rounded up to a 3. The vocals just get to me after a while and not in a good way. The musicianship, writing and arrangements etc are brilliant. It's just those damn vocals.

I don’t get these guys at all.

They are so popular I just don’t get it. It just seems a little weird and boring.

Electro-trance-rock (?) album. 2.5

Radioheadin soundit ja tuttu laulaja. Tällaista samaa se on aina

I do understand the fuss around Radiohead and I adore a few of their songs but, in general, I find it a chore to listen to their entire albums. I'm not sure what animates folks to proclaim them as complete works of genius and I don't know that I can disagree. I, for one, feel great love for The Wall by Pink Floyd and, clearly, that album is regarded as garbage by some folks. This is a very well made album that simply rubs *me* the wrong way. I can't engage with it but I can't say critically bad things about it. It's just too well made. The things I don't care for are merely characteristics which describe it and aren't faults. It drones. It uses lyrical motif to express emotion. Thom's voice is often fragile. The instrumentation is lush to the point of muddiness in spots. In others quite lonely. If I were to be overly critical it would hold about as much weight as saying that I don't care for blue automobiles. That is a me problem. This is a great album I don't like. Stepping back from my own taste and trying to appreciate what it does with the palette it is restricting itself to it is a 4 of 5. It may not be perfect but it is a fine representative of its ilk.

Even my not favorite Radiohead is still kinda my favorite Radiohead. They always deliver.

After they released Kid A and Amnesiac, which were largely recorded without the band's full involvement, they had to figure out how to perform all those songs live. That process seemed to fully level the band up into who they are today. They weave together electronic and acoustic elements in a way that almost blends the era of The Bends/OK Computer and Kid A/Amnesiac — slightly but permanently leaning toward the latter. Hail to the Thief is the first album they created after this process, and you can hear them still awkwardly figuring out how to make this kind of music as a full band. The album as a whole is less cohesive than what's come before, and it's a smidge bloated and just a little undercooked. Still, every song here has something that I love, and just by virtue of it being my favorite band, I've listened to it far more and for far longer than 90% of other music. It has a handful of my very favorite songs ("There, There", "The Gloaming", "Where I End and You Begin", and especially "A Wolf at the Door") and everything that I didn't just list is still a song I know by heart and never skip, with maybe the exception of "We Suck Young Blood" and "I Will", which you kind of have to be in the mood for. There's a 10-song tracklist that Thom threw out once in response to a message board Q&A that I maybe *slightly* prefer it, so going to throw it in here: There, There The Gloaming Sail to the Moon Sit Down. Stand Up Go to Sleep Where I End and You Begin Scatterbrain 2+2=5 Myxomatosis A Wolf at the Door

Remember when people thought George W Bush was as bad as it could possibly get? Almost makes you nostalgic. Speaking of rethinking your 2000s stances, this project has made me wonder why I drifted away from Radiohead post-Amnesiac, as this and In Rainbows are both belters.

not my favorite radiohead album if im being real.

I'm somewhat conflicted on Hail To the Thief. It has both the best and the worst songs in their entire catalogue. If I'm being honest, though, the only album in their discography I like better is Kid A. It might be a bit strange, but I'd take this one over The Bends, OK Computer or In Rainbows any day of the week. It has that ferocious energy and rhythm that they never really replicated in their other albums. Maybe I'm a sucker for a more straightforward approach, but this style is exactly what suits me the most when it comes to Radiohead. The weaker tracks like We Suck Young Blood and The Gloaming actually fit decently, regardless of how much I have a desire to instantly skip them when they come up. Favourite track: Where I End and You Begin

väldigt "simpelt" album för att vara Radiohead, men nog bra!

4/5. Bra men mindre psykedelisk än jag tycker radiohead kan vara.

One of my favorite Radiohead albums ever

What I’d call a very solid Radiohead album. Not quite at the calibre of their high standard stuff but solid for Radiohead is good for anything else… slightly too mopy at times but ill sit it at a solid 7/10 in my books

no must listen to songs, just ok.

Høyden e så fette bra men de som ikke e like bra e ganske svak for å vær radiohead

Heti lisää Radioheadia ja lauloihan Thom Yorke eilisellä PJ Harveyn levyllä kolmella biisillä. Hail to the Thief ei aukea niin helposti, kuin aiemmat kuulemani bänfin albumit, mutta kokonaisuus on kuitenkin selkeästi hyvä.

Radiohead is one of my top five favourite bands of all time, but there is no convincing argument for this album being on this list, especially when so many artists and better/more important albums are missing. Listen, I'm a big defender of this album. It's certainly bloated and it contains at least two tracks that didn't ever need to see the light of day, but it has some bangers which really come alive when heard live. But it's a significant step down from their best work. If this list, as it should be, were capped at two albums ler artist, this wouldn't be close to being included.

Meseta entre dos picos

I think I liked this, even it was a little too long. The lyrics of this album are a little abstruse to me, but maybe that's the case for every Radiohead record. The vocals are both grating and impressive at times, which was an interesting dichotomy to experience. Overall it's not bad, but nowhere near the best Radiohead has to offer. Three stars. (Favorite track: A Wolf at the Door.)

Melancholisch album, eindigt hoopgevend. Heel sfeervol

it's bizarre, . I kinda like how vocals are just another instrument in some songs.

Not sure why this Radiohead album was chosen to be on this list. OK Computer was probably the best album released in the past 30 years. Kid A was almost as good. This was a difficult listen.

Oh thank god I've been waiting for a great album. Radiohead I owe you my life.

Very cool and of the times but feels like they were playing with new music tech like drum machines and updated DAWs and they relied on the novelty of that instead of the creativity they're known for. Radiohead is a head above the rest but def not their best work. Highlights: There, There

Sadly as far as Radiohead albums go, Hail To The Thief ranks pretty low. It simply doesn’t hit the same heights as most of their other records for me, and feels like it drags on a bit - 2+2=5 is an amazing start to the album, but it tails off with a number of tracks that feel middle of the road. It maybe scores harshly as I'm viewing it in comparison to their elite discography, but I'd go a strong 7. It's still a great listen but just not to the same quality that we're used to.

This is not a straightforward album. It is layered and reveals those layers over time. It feels angry and cynical. Musically, they are in process. I don't think it is their best album, The Bends is my favourite, but it is still very, very good.

Hmmm...I kinda get it but.. not my thing

Never listened to Radiohead properly, but thought that it was generally dull music for dull people. Still, I was ready to have my mind changed today. There were flashes of interesting music and ideas, but no single song grabbed me particularly. So this doesn't get a passing grade today, but I want to keep my mind open for the next album of theirs on the list.

A little bit of everything they do. All of it brilliant.

Nooo me llamó la atención pero es una gran banda

I dunno man. I get why people like it but its not me.

This long and monotonous album seems like it had two distinct musical styles. The first was metallic and echoey and boring. The second was whiny and boring. I gave each of the musical styles half a point each. Half plus half equals one.

I like the samples and vocals

and all hail radiohead.

1001 albums to hear before you start counting 2 + 2 = 5 and know that you're demented, or the government is controlling everything. 76# AMAZING The band that made me be a music nerd. yeah almost everyone has this past. We're all living our lives and as a collective mind we go through so many of the same experiences without recognizing. The thing that changes them is how we react. Radiohead album, of course it put me in a philosophical state. About the album.. yeah it's the weakest one that'll be on this list.. or is it? I love The Bends but this might be more of an interesting ride than the Bends with all those bangers. They we're established on this one and knew what to do and where is possible to go. I love this aesthetic they create. Lunatic overthrowing the government alien aesthetic its a way to describe it. It feels grand, beyond the limits of Earth. Love this a whole lot I rated this an 88 a long time ago without writing a review, and i stand by that.

este álbum me hace acordar mucho del único concierto de radiohead que fui y me deprime un poco (de una buena manera) thom yorke hdp ponete a laburar y volvé lpm

I love Radiohead so of course I'd already listened to this album, but at the same time it's not one I tend to listen to much (other than some specific songs I really like), so sitting down to listen to the whole thing really made me appreciate some of the tracks I've paid less attention to such as: "Sit Down. Stand Up" and "Backdrifts", since both feel like they're precursors to the style the band would explore in The King of Limbs. However, I don't think it's as strong of an album compared to Kid A + Amnesiac, or In Rainbows.

when i first saw that i had to listen a radiohead album i was like oh yeah radiohead, it has to be great. Now that i listened it i feel kinda disappointed. It doesn’t mean is a terrible album, it has some songs that are ok, but only a few.

Solid, Im not the biggest radiohead guy but it worked for me

7/10 - at least until I find the time to listen to it in a dark room and understand it Fav Tracks: 2+2=5, There, There, A Punch Up at a Wedding Saved a Song? ----- ✅ Saved Album? ------ ❌ Will Listen Again? --- ✅

After listening to OK Computer earlier on in my 1001 I feel like I can say that I prefer this album. It's still got that radiohead vibe to it but I enjoy the overall sound of this album better.

Disappointed by this. Have loved other Radiohead albums I've listened to, but this was just not my thing overall. It did have some highlights tho. Myxomatosis was my fav song and first listen. 2+2=5 and A Wolf At The Door were my other highlights

what a tedious load of wank

I wasn't listening to much new music when Radiohead came on the scene (my kid's birth through early years) and so was late to the party. Now when I hear them, it takes me a while to register who it is. I like what I hear and ask myself, "why don't I listen to more Radiohead?". Then I listen to the rest of the album and wonder if it's on repeat, and remember why I don't listen to more Radiohead. I like their sound, but can't tell their songs apart. :) 3 stars

Bunnsolid album.

A solid 7/10. Great album. You can tell how strong Radiohead is here. It has a bit of everything—moments that really hit, others that feel more experimental and don’t fully land for me. Still, the atmosphere and ideas are there. I respect it more than I love it… but it definitely has some standout tracks.

GOOD

8.5/10 - I find it hard to rate albums by bands I like this much. It’s not a Top 2 Radiohead album for me, but for most other bands, this is their magnum opus. Being the 3rd best Radiohead album shouldn’t relegate this to be anything below a strong 8.

A severely underrated Radiohead album. I like the return to rock instrumentation while also keeping a few of the electronic elements. There, There is one of their bests. 8/10

The melancholic voice of Yorke is nice to listen to... Sparingly. An entire album of soft anxiousness can get boring after a while. But, I do appreciate whenever the guitars start to shred in this album. Just wish there was more of it like in The Bends.

I was pleasantly surprised by early radio head. While this album was in line with expectations I had before starting this list. Yorke's voice is reduced to a constant hard to understand whine. While the music is complex and does intricate movements, the catharsis of the songs takes too long to finally arrive. What is the opposite of a grippy hook? A greasy noodle?

I live for Radiohead but they definitely have better albums

The first radio head record I ever listened to. Love it

good

5/10 I liked this more than Kid A but unless future albums hit harder I think I'm just not a big Radiohead guy.

This is my fourth Radiohead project on this albums generator, and it's the first one I'm curious about -why- it's on the list. I'm a fan of Radiohead, but I'd never heard of this and I feel what it brings to the table has been hashed out better on some of their more recognized efforts. It sounds cool overall, but the singles haven't been standing out, so I see less commercial appeal and that's probably why I hadn't heard of this one. One more dedicated evening listen and I'm starting to get it. Conceptually is pretty solid, it's meant to be sad and frustrating and the lyrics help make that clear. This album criticizes a lot of things that aren't right, the album art is aware, giving us an abstracted view of real signs. I personally see a lot of capitalism, but the album digs even deeper still. This one's a slow burn, with songs that undress for the listener. Sexy but intimidating. I would still buy it. I might not be as excited as I would for some of their other albums, but it'd be a welcome addition to the collection. 3.7/5

This was decent but not my favorite Radiohead

This band should definitely have all albums included!

Not Radiohead's best. It's not bad, but falls short of their other albums, and it feels hard to say that it deserves a spot on this list.

Gran banda, no me gustó del todo el album

5/10 Best songs: 2 + 2 = 5, There, There, Myxomatosis No matter how much I've tried, I am not a Radiohead fan, mainly because I hate Thom Yorke's voice and singing style. The music also bugs: it's often in a minor key, which, while unique (particularly when they manage to get their ways out of it), is off-putting to the extreme. Both voice and music are at their best when the song reaches a climax, emphasizing intensity, or the culmination of a rising period of building tension. The problem is that half the songs don't have this, which, again, is off-putting. I appreciate that the band is doing something unique - they are breaking the rules of what music "should" be - but man, it just doesn't sound very good to me.

Nice album but I liked ok computer more

Radiohead are one of my all time favourite bands so I’m biased, I consider this to be 5 stars all day. But trying to be objective, I thought about what about this album justifies the 5 star rating. Firstly, this album goes on a journey and feels complete as a whole composition. Secondly, they show that after Kid A & Amnesiac that they can still get their guitars out and kill it, while still incorporating electronica. Lastly, all of the songs hold their own in my opinion, 2+2=5 and there there are absolute bangers, but other songs like Where I end and you begin, myxomatosis, and A wolf at the door are all really solid as well.

This album is entirely about the legend Len Houmous 14/14 A Wolf At The Door

I just don’t care

more radiohead comin' your way. previous albums by these guys leaned on electronic, now these guys are dragging back in their rock roots for a "best of both worlds" kind of take on the music. all radiohead albums are worth the listen in my humble opinion. i can't put into clear words as to why this album is great... the spontaneous, creative and very MYSTERIOUS aesthetic it creates and embodies throughout its runtime is indescribable. you just gotta listen to it. form a meaning yourself then get back to me.

less mainstream record but still so many bangers - sail to the moon, there there, myxomatosis, a wolf at the door. the whole record feels complete and has a cohesion

There's a lot of stealing in this one for sure Second half gets slightly better but this still very pretentious

It's just much less interesting than it pretends to be.

Really not for me

Meh

Buen album, aunque no son mis vibes. Es la ansiedad hecha musica. Es incómoda y te genera vibes de main character whose life is falling apart. No es depre (que era como conocía a Radiohead), es paranoica.

Oh man, Radiohead are SUCH hard work, and they have SIX albums on here 🤦🏻‍♂️

I don't know if we're just being served all the best radiohead albums last, or something has changed in my brain, but I now love radiohead. This has such a unique sound and it inspired sooooo much.

I do like Radiohead, but not so much this album. I kind of lost interest after "Kid A". It's diverse, complex even, but for me too experimental. There are some good songs, such as "2+2=5" and "There There", but overall I find it hard to digest. I have tried to love it like the other albums before it, but I struggle. I know I should love it, but it is what it is. A very, very, hard to give 3.

#100, and a Radiohead album too! 2+2=5 starts it off alright, I don’t love the slow start of the track, but as soon as the rest of the instruments kick in it becomes a bit of a bop. Sit down stand up had some really nice percussion. Sail to the moon had some of that sweet whining that Radiohead is known for, but it wasn’t too bad. It was actually quite melodic and pretty in a way. Backdrifts was weird. But what else am I to expect. Go To Sleep picked up the pace a bit, and I really enjoyed it. Where I end and you begin was almost haunting. I thought it was quite a good track. We suck young blood was even more haunting. It’s not my style of music, but it totally has its place. Similar thoughts on The Gloaming. There, There was honestly good. No comments here. A Will again wasnt really my thing, but half of Radiohead isn’t going to be. I liked the piano in A Punch up at a Wedding. Myxomatosis was actually sick!! I thought it was the best track on this album. Scatterbrain was alright, and to close I did actually enjoy a Wolf at the Door. 3/5 ⭐️ 100/1089

Despite liking Radiohead, this album slipped by me completely. In 2003 I was a first year teacher, newly married and had other things on my mind. File sharing websites were on their way out, and streaming music was still a few years off, making hearing it a challenge. In subsequent years the band has expressed disappointment that this album felt unfinished and bloated with too many songs. Album rankings by fans often place this near the bottom just above the lackluster debut. With all this said, I’m surprised to see this as a part of the albums list. I listened with an open mind twice through and ultimately agreed with the bands own sentiment. We Suck Young Blood could have easily been left on the cutting room floor. Other tracks felt a bit aimless. There are some outstanding tracks here. 2+2=5 was the one I was familiar with. Sail to the Moon is absolutely gorgeous and There There easily stands among Radioheads best songs. This album seems to be a band in transition from the highly experimental Kid A and Amnesiac to firing on all cylinders a few years later with the fantastic In Rainbows album.

Hail To the Thief is another display of excellence from Radiohead. The band moves back closer to elements of traditional musicality here after the forays into otherworldly ideas that Kid A and Amnesiac make. There is still plenty of experimentation and sonic exploration here though, mind you. The lyrical themes, subject matter, and metaphors are as interesting as ever and Yorke’s incredible vocal performances that vary dramatically set the stage perfectly. There are some slight missteps this time around toward the middle, however, namely We Suck Young Blood and The Gloaming falling below the rest of what’s here. While this record may lack the high highs of some of their previous releases, there remains top quality and musicianship, mixed with the band’s outstanding ability to convey and delve into human emotion, all throughout the tracklist. 2 listens Favorite Tracks: A Wolf At the Door; Sail To The Moon; A Punch Up at a Wedding; 2 + 2 = 5; There, There; Myxomatosis

Expectation: -> Can't be worse than Kid A, right? After listening: -> Indeed, clearly a step up from Kid A. Listenable. Not all that enjoyable. No tracks really stood out or that I plan to return to. There are some great Radiohead songs out there. Just not here. Track ranking: (skipped)

I didn't hate it but I've been disappointed with the radiohead stuff so far. I don't know much of their catalog so I've been excited to try them

just a really good album, can't really find anything bad to say about it.

I thought I hated Radiohead for the longest time because Hail To the Thief was my first exposure. No, it turns out this is just a bad album from a good band, rightfully removed from the 1001 albums in later editions.

Hard to give a Radiohead album anything below 4 stars. Not my favorite Radiohead album, probably not even top 3 but still a great album. Some of Thom Yorke's best vocals and the rhythm section is too good

not my thing 1/5

Another classic by one of the greats. To be honest the list has once again presented the lesser of an artist’s works but I can only truly judge its place in the whole of music not just against their own catalog. By that metric this album is a masterpiece. Flawed in places, uh…Myxamytosis?!, but by turns mostly beautiful, interesting, and awesome.

This Radiohead album will always have a special place in my heart. It was released during a time of my life that was both joyous and dark. As a follow-up to Kid A and Amnesiac, I feel that HTTT goes to the only logical place Radiohead could have gone. The result is a great collection of songs that somehow feel a tiny bit less cohesive as other Radiohead albums.

I really ended up liking this album. It started out slow, but picked up kinda. I loved the vocals and the deep lyrics.

To me Radiohead starting with Kid A is that band that is a gateway drug to experimental music. Have they been doing it as long as say Matmos, no. But they are a commercially successful band making interesting music. This is not their best but I still like it.

it surprised me that i’ve only heard the first song before, but it gotta be in my radiohead’s top 3 releases! i love how sadness here is less melancholic and more dark/edgy. a wolf at the door is gorgeous!!!!!!

афекствининг происходит,но первая часть альбома уныленькая

This is the fourth Radiohead album on my journey. Some time after touring for Amnesiac, the band went to work on their next record, recording in Hollywood over two weeks. There was a consensus to return to the more guitar-driven work of their earlier releases, while still incorporating the electronic elements of Kid A and Amnesiac. The other aspect of this album would be Thom Yorke's observations of the discourse around the war on terror, not necessarily making a political statement, so much as letting it all in. What came out would be known as Hail to the Thief. Let me get the common criticisms out of the way and address them, cause otherwise they're gonna haunt me for the rest of the review. The general complaints regarding Hail to the Thief are that it's too long and that several ideas on this record are underdeveloped. Even the band itself felt that the record was unfinished and could have been edited down. The closest I will ever come to agreeing with those detractors is that I do find "I Will" rather short at just under two minutes. Yet even those two minutes are some of the most spiteful writing Thom Yorke has ever done, after seeing news footage of a bomb shelter full of families and children destroyed in the Gulf War. In fact, let's ponder on this some more - what songs would people really want cut from this tracklist? Because I've seen Thom Yorke's alternative tracklisting five years after Hail to the Thief came out. As someone who just defended "I Will", and will also stick up for the equally vindictive "A Punchup at the Wedding", the feelings of discomfort with seeing the world regress on the electronic loop of "Backdrifts", and the gloomy spiritual tune of "We Suck Young Blood" that neatly satirizes celebrity culture, I can't fathom what tracks would be even considered for the cutting floor. If anything, this album continues to become even more relevant with the continued prevalence of fascist ideology in the world, and the feelings of dread and anxiety in dealing with it all. Sure, it can make for a moody listen, but poignant, as the band never shied away from confronting those fears and temptations head-on. All the while, the instrumental compositions managed to be just as enticing, including the crescendoing hard-hitting opener "2 + 2 = 5", the lush piano ballad "Sail to the Moon", the acoustic jaunt of "Go to Sleep", the driving layered percussion of "There, There", and that delicious fuzzy bassline on "Myxomatosis". It all culminates with the sinister spoken word of "A Wolf at the Door", as Thom vents about his frustrations with a capitalist society over a vibrant string-synth-led arrangement. I do feel that Hail to the Thief holds up remarkably well in Radiohead's catalog, despite any frustrations that the band and their audience may have endured. It may be a loaded album, but I would not leave a single track behind.

An excruciating assault on the ears.

auch eher eines der schlechteren radiohead alben?

hab nicht aufgepasst, war aber ok

I mean is Radiohead, of course it’s amazing. I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Amazingggg, peak radiohead, very experimental, some drum n base, some heart shaddering sadness and soft melodies. i could hear where jeff buckley got his inspiration.

God I hate radiohead.

Album 155. Hail To the Thief (https://open.spotify.com/album/5mzoI3VH0ZWk1pLFR6RoYy?si=pCKvDa-tRuWKKe_uFOm6-A) — Radiohead (2003) Radiohead tried to ruin my day today lol. There are six albums on the list (oh shit) and this is already the second I've gotten. Definitely not outstanding, okay for one-time listen. 2/5 No liked songs

Radiohead - Always good.

Think I went in expecting a different sound but not bad

I enjoyed it.

(93/100)

Radiohead is a band I should like, but I'm just kinda meh about them. Their good songs are incredibly good, but the rest are meh at best. This album is fine.

Not my thing

me encanta Radiohead, y este disco no es la excepción, de lo mejor que escuché. Todo el disco es excelente, me quedé con Go To Sleep, una obra maestra en mí opinión. Lo mejor que me recomendó hasta ahora esta página fue este gran disco.

roadtrip vibes

Lauter rumgeheule

168/1001 When you release a string of great albums followed by this dud, it’s called experimental. The cognitive dissonance of it. This band is clearly good but I don’t like this. It must be me. I’ll listen to it again. Actually, I’ll just play The bends instead. 5/10

I can never get past the whiny voice with Radiohead

Overall, I just don’t like it. I have not listened to a good Radiohead album yet.

Pleasantly surprised. I fell out with Radiohead when they released Kid A. I thought if that’s the way they’re going it’s nog for me. This album felt more refined, as if Kid A was practising to get to this point. Yeah, loved it

I did enjoy I think I need a second listen though Will I listen to again: 87%

Este disco lo he escuchado varias veces, antes no solía valorar tanto a Radiohead pero ahora me parece excelente.

Me copa radiohead, pero este disco se me hizo un poco chato y largo.

Hail to the end of this album. I cannot understand the appeal of listening to whining with a soundtrack.

Typical radiohead experience, good, id listen to it again

Duh

music is love

Nice love Radiohead. Not my favourite of theirs but very good.

I just can't bring myself to rate a Radiohead album anything lower than a 4, even if this is potentially the weakest of theirs on this list. Even if it doesn't all flow or land, it's thoughtful, challenging, and cool. Most bands never go there, and Radiohead does it anew with every single album. As far as merging their two sounds (indie rock and electronica), I think they perfect it in their album to follow -- but this was a damn good swing. Fave tracks: - 2 + 2 = 5 - Sit Down. Stand Up - Sail To The Moon - Go To Sleep - There, There - Scatterbrain - A Wolf At the Door

Not their best effort. 2 or 3 worthy songs surrounded by a lot of meh effort. Seemed like a band just trying to put something out to pay the bills while waiting for past inspiration to strike them. Usually love Radiohead but I can see now why this album slipped by me when it was released. Nothing truly noteworthy.

Never been a Radiohead fan. Well, they had 2 good songs in their whole career. I would categorise the music as softy rock. Unfortunately the vocals are dragging down the music. It’s like an always melancholic whiny voice dominating every song. Music for pussies

First Listen; 3.5; Really enjoyed the vibe and ambience of the album, but at the same time, it felt like there weren’t a ton of standout tracks. But when listened to together, I think the sum is more than its parts. Favorite Track: There, There

3.5, not Radiohead's best but pretty enjoyable.

Never really liked Radiohead. This kind of solidified that lol

Hard to get into honestly. Found myself distracted every song and not enjoying much of it.

heard this album at least a handful of times already. it's not my favorite of Radiohead's discography, but it's pretty good from what I can remember 2 + 2 = 5 - 5/5 Sit Down. Stand Up. - 5/5 Sail to the Moon - 5/5 Backdrifts - 3/5 Go to Sleep - 5/5 Where I End and You Begin - 5/5 We Suck Young Blood - 4/5 The Gloaming - 3/5 There There - 5/5 I Will - 3/5 A Punchup at a Wedding - 4/5 Myxomatosis - 4/5 Scatterbrain - 4/5 A Wolf at the Door - 5/5 Average score: 4.3/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ as much as i wanted this to land within 5-star territory, it just didn't make the cut for me. it came pretty close though, there's a lot to love about the album

None of the Radiohead albums on this list have changed my view that this band is highly over-rated and most of their songs are barely listenable. I would give it one star, but I will reserve that rating for the even worse albums that made it onto this list

esto y un café negro para sentir algo

Another album that I've had several songs floating around on my playlists for years. "2+2=5" "Sit Down, Stand Up" "Sail to the Moon" "Where I End and You Begin" "There, There" and "I WIll" are all great. "Go to Sleep" is probably my favorite underrated Radiohead song. Also had somehow missed "Myxomatosis" and liked that too!

love this record

Bom álbum com mais umas músicas emblemáticas

Interesting.

A little whiney, even for Radiohead

Do not understand the hype for this band, not a fan.

Big Radiohead fan, this is probably my least favourite of their albums

Rag Doll.) -: 2 + 2 = 5 (The Lukewarm.) 5,5/10

Day806 - five albums into radiohead and i still don’t get it. i can be as melancholy as the next genx-er but come on

This is the first time I’ve attempted a Radiohead album, and I’m not sure I can stand Thom Yorke’s whole thing.

grew on me after a couple of listens chansons préférées : Myxomatosis, 2+2=5

Not their best album, but still great.

Crazy how this band can make two of my all time favorites (OK Computer and In Rainbows) and then make other albums that I can’t even get through. If There There wasn’t on this, it’d be 1 star for me.

I'm always a little iffy on Radiohead because they were The Best Rock Band On The Planet after OK Computer, and then crapped it all away with Kid A and Amnesiac. This is post-traumatic listening with this record. It's 20 years old, but I've never really listened to it until today. Back to what made them a creative force and a sonic army few could match in their prime. A little of the electronic hangover exists, but pretty good for mid-00s.

242/1089 no radiohead albums for ages then suddenly 2 show up within 3 days of one another is a fun coincidence, def not complaining though this was once again pretty good, not at OK Computer’s level imo but still a good time faves: myxomatosis, where i end and you begin, there there 74/100

it's fine. not really in the mood for this shit today, but it vibes with the depression I guess.

Interesting and cool album, but not really playlist worthy. 3
