Vibey. Pre-911 swoopy synths that have been done to death but back then they hadn't yet, and still manages to be a little fresh 20 years l8r

Excellent ethereal sounding rock album. Highlights: Everything In Its Right Place Kid A Optimistic

In the top 5 best Radiohead albums

Kid A, nothing to say.

I need to listen again in full. not particularly memorable so far ... relaxing, smooth, talented and serene

eerie cool makes me feel like i’m in a movie

Not the best radiohead album, but still pretty good

Revolutionary, ambitious, emotional, raw. Beep boop noises make me want to break it down.

My favorite album of all time.

So my next album is Kid A by Radiohead. It has been a long time since I've listened to this. I was reading about this and how many Radiohead fans of the day were so gobsmacked by OK Computer - that it wasn't what we had wanted. Then I was reading about Rockism, and how people believe guitar based rock and roll is the highest form of musical art. I remember how they released this on the Internet and I had many friends who purchased it online. I did my best at the time to appreciate it. It was not accessible at all, and I wanted it to be a certain way. And with age and wisdom I see that was not an especially fair thing to do to a band. And evidenced by how much I enjoyed 'Moon Shaped Pool' their most recent album - I should have been more open minded. They have proven themselves to a be a band that confounds expectations and still produce some great work. I'm already thinking about this album is not easy to jump into, and I'm only 2 songs in. I think it's something I will have to live with for a while to get what it's putting across. On a cold and snowy morning, listening to Kid A on the way into work is an interesting experience. It made my highway driving on I-95 feel more cinematic. I'm enjoying this album the deeper I get into the tracks. I listened to Moon Shaped Pool quite a lot in the last few years. And I listened to OK Computer endlessly. I can see this album being a bridge between those two worlds and it's sounding good to me. It feels like a Radiohead morning. I'm not sure what that means exactly. Maybe it's the gray weather, or maybe the snow, or perhaps the cube farm I'm sitting in. It might be the fluorescent lighting. It's helping to make sense of my world.

Not super into radio head

Some great tunes. Usual Radiohead album

Never listened to this album before. Much more ambient and electronic influence than I expected. This one feels like it needs multiple listens. Favorite tracks on first listen are Everything, Optimistic, and Idioteque.

I mean, c'mon.

Beautiful. 4.5

I just cannot get into radiohead

Some fun songs for easy listening. The audio quality is pretty low, which brings down the enjoyment level, and the sound feels a bit derivative, but I enjoyed it a fair amount!

Experimental Radiohead sound, not much more.

Every single song is so well-crafted.

Idioteque caught my attention. Sampled somewhere??

Keskinkertainen taidepläjäys eräältä suosikkibändeistäni. Kohokohdat (Idioteque, How to Disappear Completely, Motion Picture Soundtrack) ovat ihan kelvollista Radiohead-tasoa mutta huonoimmat kappaleet ovat vaan liian erikoisia. Nuoruusvuosien nostalgiatrippailu nostaa 2,5:en kolmoseen.

Synth heavy, some good beats, ethereal. Good shower music. Not my style for go-to. Might have to listen to whole Radiohead discography to really get a vibe.

Superb. Cannot be faulted.

Kind of boring

Every Track In Its Right Place. Sublime

Fantastic album. Something you'll definitely have to listen to a few times to soak it in. Lots of different sounds to discover, very electronic compared to the bends but definitely showcases their development musically. Memorable album without memorable tracks. Songs are better together than by themselves.

Very experimental, chill, kinda strange vibes. Would put on as background music.

Not my favourite of theirs but still good.

Not my bag baby...

It was aight

Not their best album but a good one

Certainly not my favorite album from them, but not bad

No thoughts, head empty, only "How to Disappear Completely" (This oscillates between being my second and third favorite Radiohead album. Currently I'd put it in third behind OKC and IR)

No good. And experiment gone bad.

Masterpiece

I mean. This is already downloaded on my phone and in many of my playlists. Awesome album. Would give 8/5 stars if possible. "Motion Picture Soundtrack" alone is a beautiful song.

More drones than the Obama administration

What a beautiful piece of post-modern rock my guy. Really loved it, good for studying haha

Amazing how far they travelled in 4 albums.

actual pog

One of the greatest albums ever. Radiohead going experimental because they didn’t like their own rock sound anymore and not disappointing at all, this whole album is just an experience with beautiful songs. Everytime I hear this album my mind gets blown again. 10/10

Not good by any means.

Mais um ótimo disco do Radiohead. produção impecável. Sem tantos hits, mas demonstra bem o caminho musical deles

Fucking random noise and incomprehensible singing. Can't stand anything by Radiohead

Good but fatiguing at times

It's cloudy when I listened to this one, and I'm really feeling Treefingers.

Really good ! I was listening like three songs deep and I was like I get Radiohead now and I understand how artists like frank ocean are inspired by them and then that one track hit which he sampled in one of the interludes in nostalgia , ULTRA. Where the girl is like “what is a Radiohead?” 🤣🤣 And I was like damn bro i got the vision like that ?! Anyways crazy album to listen, lots of atmosphere, I feel like I’m in space like odyssey 3000! My favourite song first listen is The National Anthem that shit is nuts

Total snooze fest until it’s not and then it just sucks

2000. Key Songs: Everything In Its Right Place, How To Disappear Completely, In Limbo, Motion Picture Soundtrack

bored to tears. kinda liked idioteque.

9/10, Seminal Radiohead album, and the best, what cemented them as the greatest modern band within recent memory

I have no clue why people like radiohead. this is as boring as it gets. yeah creep was a good song but it was a real one-off. 0/5.
