Kid A

Un álbum muy triste, me gustó mucho lo que transmite cada canción, pero siento que un poco repetitivo, de igual manera un buen álbum.

Great album, tough listen if you’re not in the mood, though

An amazing album, experimental sound overall, different. I felt like I was in a cyberpunk world.

Still tenuously clinging to listenability. In spots, at least. ,

Good stuff.

a lot of songs viral on tiktok, never knew where they came from until now

Saved: How To Disappear Completely In Limbo Morning Bell Motion Picture Soundtrack

I get that people think Thom Yorke sounds kinda whiney, but all the other aspects of the songs on this album overshadow that aspect to me and make it a great listen.

Love them

Puede ser musicalmente bueno, pero me aburrió ene

More whiny as shit Radiohead.

Belle découverte. J’ai hésité avec un 4 mais la perception se bonifie au fur et à mesure des écoutes

19/20 Je connaissais Radiohead de nom, mais je n'avais jamais pris le temps d'écouter ce qu'ils faisaient. Une grave erreur dont j'aurais pourtant pu me prémunir en faisant le lien entre Thom Yorke et Radiohead. En tout cas, une excellente découverte, avec de très belles sonorités. L'album est a la fois pris d'une très belle unité, sans pour autant que les différentes musiques de ressemblent. On est loin du rock classique qu'on pourrait imaginer, ça donne presque l'impression de tendre vers l'électro Et de manière tout a fait étonnante, c'est un album qui malgré 26 ans, n'a pas pris une ride. Ce fut un délice à écouter, et ça me donne envie de découvrir les autres albums du groupe.

6/10 motion picture soundtrack är ju en BANGER Men resten var ändå okej/ ganska bra

I cannot listen to band full of pro zionist. WHAT HAPPEN IN GAZA IS GENOCIDE BY ISRAEL. FREE PALESINE!

Overall a good listen, liked the vibe and feel of it as a whole but nothing a lot of replays

This is an album that you would expect to be made in the 2010's. It has the perfect atmosphere of a foggy, rainy British port and of the sea creatures that might resides in the deep waters. Though it has some songs I personally could not give a listen to again, others are complete masterpieces. My favorite one by far is "How to disappear completely", and how it perfectly encapsulates that feeling. I find it beautiful that people searching for that answer will come into contact with this song. I wish that I would have been able to play this album along with the game made for it, but even without, it was a beautiful experience. I gotta keep this at review at a 4 though, I can't start with a 5 as my first album.

A singular masterpiece. Outside of Dark Side of the Moon it’s hard to think of bigger rock album that’s as firmly weird and eschews traditional rock elements throughout like Kid A does. It’s the moment Radiohead left the guitars mostly on the ground and launched into outer space to communicate with other, more advanced lifeforms. Kid A still sounds like the future, quite a feat for an album that is over a quarter century old now. It starts out with one of the all time great opening notes: as soon as that 5-note intro plays on Everything In Its Right Place you just know this is something different, as if those notes are some kind of code. I’m not sure where it ranks on my album list for Radiohead, but I know it’s top-tier along with OK Computer, The Bends, and In Rainbows. If it’s not my favorite among these, there’s probably an objective argument that Kid A is Radiohead’s most unique and forward looking artistic statement.

Amazing textures, super super interesting sounds, and very experimental, which makes the album feel very distant and cold while also “easy” and almost catchy to listen to? How is that possible? The National Anthem is such an awesome song. And so are How to Disappear Completely, Idioteque, and Motion Picture Soundtrack.

Undeniably a classic, just kind of fell out of love with the band.

Good album but overrated and a bit of band self flagellation

I couldn't find anything enjoyable or redeemable about this album. I really only enjoy one song by this group, and it's not even on this album.

Listening session: february 18th, while commuting to internship Listened to before: yes listened to most songs before but not to the entire album Thoughts: I love Radiohead and while this is not my favourite album of theirs, I can appreciate the different path they went on with this album and it still contains a lot of songs I love Favourite tracks: Everything in Its Right Place, Optimistic & Motion Picture Soundtrack

Radiohead? What happened to phone sex? This album was really good but TikTok ruined it a bit.

This album was not very interesting.

Creativity, some great individual tracks but not enough consistency to claim to be their best.

Kid A is one of my favourite albums by radiohead, which initself is one of my favourite bands. So theres no surprises about where I'm rating this. The cohesion and placement of each song, Everything is in its right place you might say, the album really came together (almost like a jigsaw falling into place) so satisfyingly. Aside from the awful puns, this albums such a satisfying listen, i can't think of a track i'd rate less than a 7/10 on here. Its experimental and the ambience it creates is magical, especially with the equipment they had at the time to produce this. Some of the best tracks are:How to disapear completely, treefingers, Motion Picture Soundtrack, Kid A. Amazing listen.

Good album.

They create some really interesting songs on this album, but I feel that if it was a nameless band I wouldnt score it 5 stars, so 4 it is.

Self Indulgent Crap It’s like they were just trolling us for an album. I’ll have to give it another chance maybe. But not a fan at all.

I've never listened to Radiohead properly before, but I'm liking this a lot. The soundscapes are very soothing to my brain. It feels like it's taking me on a journey.

I’d feel smarter if I was totally into Radiohead, but alas…

Super

disjointed and annoying

Got off to a good start with everything in its right place, and but starts getting ambient before it's built a solid enough foundation. The only other song I particularly like on the album is Idioteque. Everything else was too melancholy to enjoy. Another attempt at liking Radiohead thwarted by the way their music sounds.

I know I'm gonna be the minority here, but screw it: I love this album. Always did. As I've said in other reviews, I can't put my fellow reviewers into my head at age 15 and make those memories/associations for them, but musically I think it holds up beautifully. Yes, they took a left turn and demanded a lot from their fans after the radio friendly guitar-driven rock "OK Computer", etc etc we all know the story, but I think this album STILL sounds like the future. To make a paranoid, claustrophobic synth and sample-driven pastiche like this in 2000 is one thing, but to have it age as gracefully as it has into 2026 shows its true brilliance. Bias admitted, this is one of my favorite bands, and I think "Everything in its Right Place" is one of my favorite Radiohead songs and best album openers. If you lay down, get some good speakers/headphones, and listen to this album, you will open your eyes when its over wondering what the hell you just listened to, in the best way. It's like a guided meditation or reading a really dense book, not for multi-tasking or listening out of context. Also - the first time you hear "The National Anthem"....come on. Mind blower

Can already tell this would be unreal to get stoned to. Reminds me a bit of shinjuku mad without the typical whininess of Radiohead.

Love me some Radiohead. Not my favourite work from them.

wish i liked it

This wasn't great. Sometimes these songs really felt like they didn't go anywhere. This definitely was not my favorite. I would be wishing for something to happen. They also are a little too...electronic for me at times. Liked Songs: "Kid A" , "The National Anthem" , "Optimistic" , "In Limbo" , "Idioteque" , "Morning Bell"

4.5

I like Radiohead.

Peaks w no valley

I was just listening to this yesterday unprompted. From the moment ‘Everything In Its Right Place’ kicks off, this album takes you on a ride. Crazy to think they got from The Bends to here with one album in between. I’ll always respect Radiohead for seemingly constantly evolving.

6/10

‘Kid A’ remains one of the most audacious and rewarding albums of the 21st century, and the magnum opus of the Radiohead canon. I can see why people were bewildered when it first arrived: it was such a departure for Radiohead, even though, in many ways, it wasn’t. Upon release, it confounded fans and critics alike, feeling like a radical shift from the guitar-driven alt-rock of ‘OK Computer’, yet unmistakably Radiohead at its core. Its blend of electronics, ambient textures, and subtle rock instrumentation creates a soundscape that is at once alien and deeply human. The album rewards repeated listening. Hidden motifs, glitchy rhythms, and the interplay between Thom Yorke’s voice and the band’s arrangements (many of which were shaped by Jonny Greenwood’s textures) gradually reveal themselves, and the more you listen, the more the album grows in depth and nuance. Tracks like ‘Everything In Its Right Place’, ‘How to Disappear Completely’, and the title track ‘Kid A’ carry a timeless melancholy, while others such as ‘The National Anthem’ and ‘In Limbo’ explore tension, unease, and experimental layers of sound. ‘Treefingers’ offers a moment of serene, ambient reflection, whilst ‘Optimistic’ provides a more straightforward rock structure, balancing the album’s more demanding moments. More than twenty years on, ‘Kid A’ has not only stood the test of time but also influenced a generation of artists, proving that bold departures can become enduring masterpieces. It remains strange, compelling, and endlessly absorbing, a record that invites patience and curiosity, but continues to feel startlingly fresh decades later.

Not bad! Can't say this one was for me.

Yup

Everthing in its Right Place

Not bad 9/17

It’s a very atmospheric album imo and it’s diverse and not the same sound as Radiohead’s first album my fav songs are how to disappear completely and motion picture soundtrack and idioteque was good too really unique sound

everything in its right place - what fuckin synth is this that major chord fuckin me up the national anthem- so real lol how to disappear completely - grows on me motion picyure soundtrack - very pretty song

The first one on this list that I was familiar with. While I was never much of a Radiohead fan growing up, I have learned to appreciate them over the years. The first track on this album was on the Vanilla Sky soundtrack, so that was a very familiar beginning. The experimentation on this album is obvious, and I’m sure it was pretty divisive to their fans back in its time the same way Pink Floyd’s albums were sometimes.

Solid ambient soundscapes

Broccoli dipped in honey

Radiohead is always the vibe

i’ve been wanting to listen to more radiohead! sitting in jury duty rn i liked everything in its right place and motion picture soundtrack!

those who know me know how I feel about my Radiohead 🤓

Ugh I love Radiohead and this is my favorite album of theirs. “Everything In It’s Right Place” is an all time favorite song in general. Other highlights for me are “How to Disappear Completely”, “Optimistic”, and “Untitled”. Truly a masterpiece as far as I’m concerned. A billion trillion stars.

Classic. I love Radiohead

When to listen: to zone out, potentially after smoking a lot. What I liked about this album is that it was short. Techno mumbo jumbo not my vibe.

Alarms and surprises (but not nice ones). Pretentious and close to unlistenable.

Hi. I only knew one thing about Radiohead and that was "Creep". Banger, but completely gave me the wrong idea of the vibe of their more extended works, so I never looked into it. Now to this album. This gave me STRONG "this directly influenced Everything Everything" notes and I LOVE Everything Everything. Absolutely top tier from the go. Weird, unique, artful, compelling. OK ok I get it now. @EE don't worry you guys are still my number one 😘

Good album and marked a new direction for the band but I’m partial to the Bends and OK Computer

Wtf is this shit

Album No. 0150 on my list. "Kid A" is the 2nd Radiohead album on my list. I had not listened to it in a while, but I knew that Radiohead would become the first artist on my list with two 5 stars albums, because this has been a favorite of mine for a long time and certainly deserves its status as one of the most important albums of the 21st century. "Kid A" is an incredibly good album. It represents a strong stylistic shift from its predecessor "OK Computer" (which is probably my favorite album of all time). Where Radiohead transcended the boundaries of rock music with "OK Computer" (and put a nail in the coffin of Britpop, for better and for worse), on Kid A, they left genre boundaries altogether. This is an electronic music album, but also a Jazz album, and nevertheless a rock album as well. "Kid A" is avant-garde in the best sense of the word, but it's still incredibly catchy, (relatively) accessible and intense. As with all Radiohead albums (at least since "OK Computer"), this is also incredibly well produced and sounds really good. Kid A contains one of Radiohead's most famous songs ("Everything In It's Right Place", a electro-prog-rock hymn), the possibly saddest song of all time ("How To Disappear Completely"), one of the greatest bass lines ever made ("The National Anthem"), and so much more cool stuff. These songs are dark, they are personal, they are political, they are powerful, they're progressive, and they're even a little fun sometime. I'm not sure whether "Kid A" is my favorite album of this century, but it's certainly in the top 3, and it certainly is one of the most important music albums ever made. I get why it may have divided fans at the time and did pose a challenge to the band during the recording process. But after more than 25 years, one can see that "Kid A" is a milestone in the bands' career, saving Radiohead from becoming "just" another rock band without much innovation (what improvement to their rock music could they have made after "OK Computer"). They would probably have been dead-set of disbanding at some point. Instead, Kid A helped them cement their image as one of the most important, most innovative, most iconic bands of all time, one that transcends genres and creates something new with each of their albums. It's probably not least to this album that the band is still going strong today. I will add "Everything In It's Right Place", "The National Anthem", "How To Disappear Completely", "Optmistic", "Idiotique", and "Morning Bell" to my playlist. Could have added the whole album as well, each song is unique and good in its own way. I'm glad I've had the opportunity to listen to this again. Such good stuff, already looking forward to "Amnesiac", which is kinda an extension of this album. 5/5 stars - of course!

Fav: how to disappear completely 3/5

I guess I understand why it’s on the list, but just too slow/boring/experimental to be my thing.

Somewhat off-putting at times with his voice. Not my favorite RH album

Hard to understate how big of a departure this one felt like at the time as Radiohead continued their musical journey. A brilliant and bold work, ditching the radio-friendly singles entirely and delivering a beautiful haunting music scape that never ceases to draw me in.

Radiohead you could never make me like you. Okay, maybe a little. This wasnt bad, its super atmospheric and even a little soundscape-y at times. I do like how well everything flows together here and I gotta give them credit for making pretentious style music good.

Damn I guess I’m just a Radiohead fan now because I loved this album. So atmospheric and a total vibe. Listened to this one a few times today, I couldn’t get enough!

Not as bad as expected.

One of the most hypnotic albums ever. I can remember hearing it in the 90s, exactly where I was and the scenery in my view. And I've listened to it countless times since. It's still unlike any album i know (except for maybe a Bowie or two), defying classification.

I like this album a lot. But I also am biased due to knowing a lot more about its influence than have listened to it. Is it a 5 for me? Maybe it’s a 4.5 but I think it deserves 5.

I first heard it when it was new and my tastes couldn't handle it. I needed something more tuneful. Nowadays I appreciate it quite a bit more, but still find some of it a hard listen.

Radiohead are the most depressing thing ever since death was invented

I'm not here something is wrong

Very great album. How To Disappear Completely and Idioteque are fantastic, the rest of the album is cold and calm and good. I'd like to come back to this.

2/5 Found it dull, maybe ok for doing the ironing in the background. Ironically the only track tha I enjoyed was Optimistic

8/10

Radiohead are one of my favourite bands and seeing them live was a bucket list moment for me so you know where this is going. TBH I do prefer Amnesiac and In Rainbiws though. This is one for putting on the headphones, lying back and letting the music wash over you. It’s no wonder.that Jonny Greenwood has become an acclaimed film soundtrack composer

Another great album from Radiohead. Has many great songs.

Don’t get the hype at all. But a couple of decent ones.

Not for me, shocker

Ok album

It was like they listened to Pearl Jam's Vitalogy and said "Hold my beer". Just awful. Maybe one decent song I could stand hearing again but none I'd pursue

Agony, not a fan, will not listen again

A bit slower than I would go for, and quite instrumental. Not something I would choose but it was decent/

Ok

Such a great album. Didn't expect anything from it, but it hit my mood very well. Will relisten it 100%.

not a huge radiohead fan.. very chaotic, very experimental. i think radiohead is one of those bands that try to be deep and philosophical but they just end up with very forgettable songs with poor lyrics. i dont know why but i just cant get into any radiohead song and i dont know why that happens. 4-5 songs deep i forgot to pay attention to the album and last thing i remember i was at the end. the first track is good but i dont remember the rest.

Electronic beats (some of them admittedly great). Whiny vocals. Large parts are incomprehensible and tough to listen to, which is probably why critics loved it.

Yeah..... maybe the radiohead guys r onto something

Surprise surprise, I’m a white dude in my 30’s and I love Radiohead.

space vibes

It took me a good amount of tries to get into Radiohead because they just didn’t fit my musical standard (lyrics and melody combined) but after giving Kid A its 10th listen, I was pretty blown away at how innovative the group was. They redefined how electronic music could be used in a more common rock/pop song. People give Motion Picture Soundtrack a lot of credit S being the best song on here, but it’s between Kid A and Idiotwque for me. Very good album.

Excellent album. The hill I am willing to die on is that it's not nearly as revolutionary an electronic album as the discourse around it is making it up to be

I know this is supposed to be a great album, but feels way too artsy. I was so bored. Probably least favorite Radiohead album.

3.5

3.0

Already a huge fan. 10/10 revolutionary record and perhaps the greatest curveball in pop music history. Fav tracks: Everything in its right place (opening notes are one of my favorite synth sounds ever), Ideoteque, Motion Picture Soundtrack (absolutely mental organ arrangement that could go toe to toe with the all-time great classical composers), How to Disappear Completely (amazing strings and truly devastating piece of escapism). Least fav: In Limbo/Morning Bell get a little too surreal for me at times but are perfect when in the right mood for an atmospheric listen.

Love this album

Stunning electronic album with incredible production. The songs are great, the sounds are sweet and eerie. What’s not to love?

Radiohead's prog rock album. Whoopie. I need to go live in England for six months or so just to figure out what the hell they see in Radiohead/Eno/King Crimson and the 52 other effective-duplicate acts on this list. How about an artist who can play guitar? Or maybe one that uses actual drums? You know, musicians. That play instruments. Just sayin'. Influence - you know what, nope. I don't care enough anymore. This is (yet another) 2*.

like a 2 outta 5 shits ass

Heard it before and is peak overall 8/10

Peak

áspero, gutural e extremamente condoído. melhor ainda se vc ouvir chapado

Great album - from start to finish.

This might just be the essential Radiohead album.

I used to not get Radiohead but I'm starting to really enjoy this stuff. Cool how they went full electronic on this one pretty much. Idioteque is a great track. Guess I'm a Radioheadhead now.

meh these guys are boring

Rate Radiohead later

radiohead always ❤️

Meget elektronisk inspireret kan man mærke også i teksterne. Det er meget gentagende osv. Virkelig godt album fra Radiohead må jeg sige og meget anderledes end f.eks. in rainbows.

Kid A feels like music made for deep thoughts, songs that were written to be understood rather than simply listened to. The entire album sounds like a long dream that lingers in your mind, each moment being defined by the various shifts in tone through the tracks.

Cool vibes album stuffed with bangers

Simultaneously gloomy and groovy 4 - a great album even among this list

Ach radiohead, ach lisa...c

eat shit york

This was the first album that Radiohead released that I didn't listen to having become a bit disinterested in the band following OK Computer. My review of this is going to be remarkably similar to my earlier review of In Rainbows though, in so much that it starts really well but I found the rest of it difficult to digest in just one sitting and that a single listen almost certainly doesn't do it justice! Gone is any semblance of the band that they were before which is of course simultaneously bold and alienating.

I liked- but kinda sad and scary and not great for mornings lol

Honestly not my favorite Radiohead album as it was in years gone by, but I can't help respect the creativity they have on this album especially given when it was released. Worth 4 stars for that alone.

this album is 10/10 no words one of my favourites

Boring don't get the hype

Not really a fan, and I'm not sure why. I just found the album boring, noisy, and irksome.

I certainly have a love/hate relationship with Radiohead. There are some songs on this album that are amazing and others are over the top pretentious.

Exceptional album, but not quite as good as OK COMPUTER imo

6.0/10 - to be honest this was a struggle to enjoy except for a few tracks like everything in it's right place, how to disappear completely, and optimistic. The sound and landscape is great and really well produced. Definitely better Radiohead albums out there though.

It was boring as hell how is this something im supposed to listen too

Interesting music but I didn't much care for it.

Beautiful. I can tell it's perfect objectively but subjectively it isn't for me

cool sound, but otherwise boring

Peak

Firstly, I was just listening to this yesterday. This is my definitive winter album, so when a record snow storm rolled in, it was inevitable I listened. It’s transportive, haunting, alien, futuristic, and depressing as hell. Kid A isn’t my definitive favorite of theirs, but it’s close. This album showed that Radiohead was a one of a kind band capable of pushing music forward.

Everything In It's Right Place and Idioteque are classics with a bit of non-descript filler in between.

Ya lo escuche lo amo

Huh?

Fuck radiohead

Horrible. I literally can't believe people enjoy this crap. This is a scorching hot take, I know, people are going to be big mad about this but, Muse was/is/and will always be the superior 00's experimental rock band. Argue with ya mom. And remember, they hated Jesus for the things he said as well.

Without listening to it — don’t need to, know it by heart — this is a five star album. Musically, it’s pretty great. And like most Radiohead albums, each song is a distinctive artistic experience full of interesting creative decisions and experiments. It’s not their best work musically, however, but maybe the most compelling? (My phone autocorrected “complete” to “compelling” and I think that the latter is the better word.) Radiohead uniquely seems like they crackle with this supernatural precognitive energy that goes beyond a progression sound but also weirdly predicts the future. OK Computer didn’t overly talk about the isolation and loneliness that technology would bring us — it had you actually experience it, like it pulled you away from reality. Chuck Klosterman wrote that Kid A predicted 9/11, in the sense that the album emotes the experiences immediately before and after that day. If you agree, and I kinda do, how the fuck did Radiohead do that? How do you listen to them and not feel like you’re in another dimension or staring at aliens?

Not really a Radiohead fan.

Great album from an exceptional band.

literally feel like I’m transcending the second this album starts with everything in its right place. So much of what’s on here gives me actual chills. The amount of cool synths in this is awesome. Something about this album feels so existential, like I would play this if I knew the world was gonna explode or I was in a spaceship about to crash or something. This isn’t necessarily a pleasant listening experience, especially with weird stuff like the title track thrown in there, but it all builds on the atmosphere of the album perfectly anyways. Even some of the more ambient tracks, like treefingers, feel perfectly executed. Fav songs: everything in its right place, how to disappear completely, morning bell

Strong start for this project with this album. In the 90s, I enjoyed the Just album but didn't follow them into the shift in style they did in OK Computer and then this. I've listened to Radiohead more and more in the last few years, and was pleasantly surprised at how much of the album I already know and how strong it is a cohesive whole.

Mid

A little too depressing but good

Amazing!

I don't know why this didn't click: really thought it would.

Me gustaron tres canciones, este álbum en especial no es mi favorito pero rescato la musicalidad que me encantó de “Motion picture Soundtrack”

Chill and vibey but not sure I fully get the hype

Típico disco de Radiohead deprimente. No le daré un 2 por ser Radiohead, pero estoy en un estado anímico en el que me repele esta música.

- you kidding me????

Radio head is always top tier

I’ve always had a fairly high tolerance for pain. Fortune, I’d say. Dislocations, broken bones, muscle tears… just part of the gig of life, fairly predictable discomfort. Worst ever was a dying and infected tooth. Thanks to all the many addicts of our previous generations, my dentist’s best prescription relief was over-the-counter nonsense. 48 hours before extraction… 48 hours of feverish pain and misery. This album reminds me of those 2 days.

Heard before. Don’t love it.

I had already listened to this album, but decided to relisten to better ascertain a written opinion on it, and I will say it was a delightful relisten. Kid A is a sharp right turn in Radiohead's sound from their previous OK Computer, and is executed flawlessly, containing a blend of electronic ambient noises, as well as more harsh sounding parts. Not many artists can swap genres like that that quickly, but Radiohead manages to accomplish that and then some. It should also be noted that I own this album physically, so my praise for it was spoken well before this relisten. This album gets a 10/10 from me.

better than ok computer i'll stand by it until i die

Hard to not be biased as they are my favourite band, but this was a huge moment for me as a musician to be exposed to this album. Will always be one of my favourites

Barely could finish

I like sm but I think it would be better instrumental

Gelukkig heb ik dit live meegemaakt

Very good album. Great opener with Everything In It's Right Place, and then takes a very atmospheric, almost audio Zen garden turn for a while in the beginning and middle of the album. Songs tend to "drag" but I think these are meant to be soundscapes and that's intentional / coupled with the shorter run time (less songs) its not something that feels daunting. Album feels like an experiment in rock at times, but is intermixed with those aforementioned soundscapes. Love the rock, enjoyed the sounds, but as a total piece did not get over that hurdle to be a top top flight album. 4/5

My rating is 3.3.

Some really cool stuff on this record, but I miss “The Bends” era Radiohead that was more of a real “rock” band. I’m all for experimentation and electronic sounds, just miss the edge and power of the band.

Radiohead is literally peak but men who listen to them are devil… Literally already had every song on my playlists but now took off “kid a” Favourite songs: -Motion Picture Soundtrack -How to disappear completely -optimistic -in limbo ♬ Least fav: -Kid a (Still very good but just doesn’t live up to the others) 9/10 I LOVE RADIOHEAD

Good

really good

This is a brilliant album that I hated when it came out. I wanted more karma police. I was wrong. They were right. Seeing it live made it make sense.

One of the greatest albums of all-time. How to disappear completely may be the greatest song about depression ever written.

Album bellissimo peccato che. É dei Radiohead

not my vibe

There are a couple of gems in here, for sure, but I find a lot of the tunes on this album annoying to be honest. Still, was fun to revisit it again!

dnf

Listened to a few songs but bit weird not very musical

This was the first Radiohead album I “got” and it’s been a firm favourite ever since. It’s still a thrilling release by a band who were just getting into their stride with bold steps. I came to Kid A from 15 years of listening pretty exclusively to hip hop, house, techno, drum n bass and latterly exploring more avant garde electronics, and rock really didn’t figure much in my reckoning. A good friend recommended this to me not long after its release, commenting on the influence a lot of the music I loved had had on it. However, I think it’s too reductive to describe Kid A as Thom Yorke trying to be Autechre; unlike the indie dance merchants of the early 90s whose protestations that there’d always been a dance element to their music, here you can hear the influence of numerous strands of electronic music being woven in, rather than being mindlessly aped. To me, Kid A is of a similar spirit to Björk’s stellar releases of the 90s, and to the Happy Mondays and the Falls’ channeling of Can’s funky psychedelic spirit.

4.3 w/o 2instr. 4.1 w/ 2instr.

Come on…

Don’t want to get murdered so have to give it a 5. Overall a pretty good album. Only a couple of songs I disliked but the rest were good. Would say a solid 8/10

Not as good as I expected based on all the reviews, still good though. 78/100 (is that better phil?)

its like the fourth best Radiohead album. So its still 5 stars just not as good as some of the others 5 Stars Light 9 out of 10

I think Mr Radio head should play some peggle, then this album won't be so sad

Wasn't planning on doing a song by song but I feel that it might be good in order to say what I'd like to about them. Everything In Its Right Place: I hadn't realised the sound that's used in a lot of social media posts was from the start of this song. The song was alright, I didn't feel there was a huge amount 'to it', though it wasn't bad to listen to. I always feel like I'm more able to comment on songs with more singing (or at least more traditional singing) better, I still enjoy songs without, but being less knowledgeable on instrumental things its difficult to go past "I enjoyed this / didn't enjoy it", though maybe I'm thinking about it too deeply. Kid A: Odd choice for a title track, can't say I've heard it before, some pretty weird sounds. Again, this wasn't bad to listen to, I just didn't feel like there was much there. The National Anthem: Very similar vibe to the previous song, lots of weird music/noises, little to add. How to Disappear Completely: This is a song I could appreciate a lot more, it's definitely a well crafted song, Thom Yorke obviously has some odd vocals but they work well here. I think I heard him say in an interview once that this may be one of the greatest songs he has made. Treefingers: Never heard of this one, the music was pleasant enough, I'm interested in how some of these songs are performed in concert, if at all, perhaps as transitional pieces I suppose. The word esoteric came to mind when listening to this but upon looking it up I don't think it fits so unsure why I thought of it. Optimistic: I went into this one expecting it to be good and it was, guess you could say I was optimistic. Some nice vocals in this one and the instruments were more of a typical rock style which I think I prefer. In Limbo: Decent, very typical Radiohead I felt which is typically a good thing. Idioteque: one of the better ones on the album, certainly some of the strongest vocals for me, I enjoyed it. Morning Bell: felt somewhat similar to the prior song, another of the better ones, perhaps it's boring but it seems I like the more 'normal' songs. Motion picture soundtrack: Perhaps the best one yet, very nice singing, very nice music, very good song. Untitled: little to say, it is what it is. Overall this was an enjoyable album, particular the second half for me, it's not a five star album, I can see that Radiohead fans may give it that but it wasn't quite strong enough for me, some of the earlier songs felt a little empty. 75/100 Score edited 28/01/26

Listened to this one quite a few times but it certainly won't hurt to listen again. Everything In Its Right Place is such an amazing opener. That alien keyboard tone really sets the scene for just how much they had moved away from Ok Computer. Kid A is without any doubt the best ringtone written of all time(and also just a really solid track) I LOVE The National Anthem. An amazing yet simple bassline, and when the brass section comes in its unbeatable chaotic. They played this one live when I saw them - something I'll never forget. The transition from the chaos of The National Anthem into How To Disappear Completely is so well done. This is one of the songs I'll put on when I don't want to think or feel and the album really parallels my own emotional highs and lows with this shift. I'm not usually one for lyrics but this one in particular really does speak to me. It's hard to put into words how this song makes me feel. My brain turns off when the strings come in at the end. I think as a standalone track Treefingers makes no sense but within the album as a whole it creates such an atmosphere after How To Disappear. The times when I've listened to this album in an existential mood sometimes it feels like this is an opportunity to think and process how I feel. Other times it's like my mind is empty and it means I don't have to think. Optimistic is undeniably a banger, love the shift to that guitar riff. I don't think Yorke meant it in a positive light but I usually just pretend this is a happier song cause at a surface level it makes me happy. In Limbo is a lovely return to the atmosphere that makes up this album as a whole. I like the lyrics in this one quite a lot as well. The drum machine in Idioteque is the best thing ever. So so so good. Another one they played live that was just quite simply amazing. I keep yapping about how good the atmosphere is in these songs but it really is true. In quite a few of these many of the individual parts aren't particularly standout but together they make something really quite special. I really quite like how the electronic? (from the modular synth maybe?) sound carries on into the start of Morning Bell. Motion Picture Soundtrack is beautiful. I want this one played at my funeral (which hopefully won't be for a little while). Best one in the album for feeling depressed. I think untitled works a little like Treefingers for decompressing after such songs. Really yapped a bit for this review but I do love this album. Insane to think that such a masterpiece is very arguably not even Radiohead's best work. a very strong 5/5

I can appreciate the interesting synth melodies and vocals but there was personally only a few tracks that stood out to me that I really enjoyed

Was great listening to this so soon after The Bends which I found boring and generic- loved this in comparison! Love the electronic textures and the almost-ambient sound of it, a very different album

Po raz pierwszy mam do czynienia z tym albumem i jest przewspaniały. Lubię takie, które zaczynają i kończą się w całości, i jeszcze mają kropkę na końcu. I to nie muzyczka w tło, a raczej życie pod muzyczkę. Zakładasz na uszy i cię nie ma, a jak już ktoś zmusi ci do wyjścia z muzyczki, to wciąż mówi pod muzyczkę. I wtedy nawet najgłupsza prośba jest nieistotna, bo jesteś main character.

ja jestem radioheadhead ale czego tu nie lubić? może jedynie początku morning bell, thom piszczy releeeeease me i ja myślę czasem no właśnie, release me, od tej piosenki lol, bo jest zbyt natarczywa nagle i mnie wybija z rytmu, ale od round and round and round and round and roooooooound jestem z powrotem. płynie i ja płynę razem z nim -- pozostając w temacie albumów, które jako całość stanowią więcej, niż suma swoich części. mógłby być dwa razy dłuższy -- mógłby i trzy -- i by mi się nie znudził. (hipoteza potwierdzona in vivo: amnesiac zawiera utwory z tych samych sesji, które się nie zmieściły na kid a i jest jeszcze lepszy.) jest kilka utworów tutaj, jak zresztą na każdej ich płycie, których mogę słuchać zapętlonych w nieskończoność. jedyny powód, dlaczego nie zabrałbym jej na samotną wyspę, to że to nie jest moje ulubione radiohead. może nawet nie jest w top 5. i tak dam mu wszystkie gwiazdki. i’m lost at sea don’t bother me

Mam jeden problem a raczej myśl i jest nią to, że w sumie to ja słucham za mało Radiohead. Bo utwory na wyrywki jasne ale tak żeby sobie posiedzieć nad całym albumem to rzadko wpadające w nigdy. Flow niesamowity. Thom Yorke sing to me.

Nie wiem co mam myśleć. Pierwszy utwór mi się podobał, ale następne (aktualnie leci National anthem), już mniej. Za dużo się dzieje. Różne instrumenty muzyczne grające nieharmonijnie, wywołują jakiś chaos w mojej głowie. Trudno mi się skupić. Muzyka nie przystosowana do pracy.

Undercooked.

Everything in its right place: this song sounds really good. It's worth it. I feel like this song reminds me of everything being ok, yet something is off. This song is almost like a white rabbit in Alice in Wonderland almost. Kid A: This song is also good and robotic. To me, this song is like a world with too much AI and it's depressing almost but in the end a piece of human comes out. The National Anthem: America is falling apart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How to Disappear Completely: Depressing sounding. It reminds me of wanting to just cry and be alone Tree fingers: You are just observing nature. You are nature now!! Optimistic: Its good Review: I really like this music. I want to listen to more Radiohead. Its just really good and it has this relatable sad feeling to it. Please listen to this please. It feels robotic and otherworldly

Everything in Its Right Place is a masterpiece of a song.

Kid A entstand in mehreren Studios, unter anderem in den Guillaume Tell Studios in Paris, den Medley Studios in Kopenhagen sowie in Batsford Park in Gloucestershire. Radiohead sind eine britische Band. Musikalisch entfernt sich das Album deutlich vom gitarrenorientierten Alternative Rock früherer Veröffentlichungen und bewegt sich zwischen elektronischer Musik, experimentellem Rock, Ambient und Einflüssen aus Jazz und zeitgenössischer Klassik. Bekannte und stilprägende Stücke sind „Everything in Its Right Place“, „Kid A“, „Idioteque“ und „How to Disappear Completely“. Die Band arbeitet hier stark mit Synthesizern, verfremdeten Stimmen und offenen Songstrukturen, was dem Album einen bewusst kühlen, fragmentierten Charakter verleiht. Insgesamt wirkt Kid A konsequent und herausfordernd, ein Album, das sich weniger sofort erschließt, dafür langfristig prägt.

Need to listen again.

One of the best albums ever recorded. A stone cold masterpiece

Was so stoked when I saw this as my first album to listen to. "Everything In Its Right Place" is one of my fav songs of all time, and I knew I loved some of the other songs in the album but I can't say I've ever listened to it in its entirety before. Fantastic album, love it, love any excuse to listen to it. Yay!

Oh yeah. This really is a list of excellent albums. Radiohead are a bit of a marmite band, but I like marmite and I like Radiohead. There are other Radiohead albums that are more accessible than this, but I find it enjoyable to listen to without being demanding or taxing. I enjoy it for its variety and unusualness, with regular anchor points of tracks with groove and interesting layered musicality. It’s the first album generated for me by 1001 albums that sounds very much like a single piece of work, even if all the tracks aren’t literally linked into one ‘flow’. So for that reason it will score the highest so far. I’m not taken to heaven by it so still not a 5, but a close 4.5 and knocking on the door. If I listened to it some more and got to know all the tracks inside out I reckon it could become a 5. There is a lot of chat in reviews about Radiohead not being the first or only or best band that does experimental stuff that sounds like this, but that just makes me want to look out those bands/artists, whilst still appreciating this. 11 tracks total Fave track # 3 And others: 1 (Everything in its right place) 3 (The National Anthem) 6 (Optimistic - great groove, drum fills) (Morning Bell - Some, nice ambient cyclical offbeat rhythm)

i really enjoyed this it was so unique and felt so experimental but also coherent and all the instruments were very fun

it’s really unfortunate because i love radiohead but my god i really don’t like this album. some of it is downright uncomfortable with the electronic production, and some of it is just blah. i do still like “how to disappear completely” and “motion picture soundtrack” but that’s really it.

Perfect

Not my fave radiohead, but it's such an awesome album still.

Not a big Radiohead fan, but it’s interesting

the album of doom and despair i freaking love radiohead

I know I said it before, but this album has such a Keane vibe. I loved this and will definitely listen to it again!

Не так погано як казала більшість, дуже незвичайна робота від радіохед. Оцінюю на 7/10

jeg synes egentlig ikke det var noe for meg. jeg synes det var ganske slitsomt å høre på, og fikk ikke til å høre gjennom hele i løpet av dagen. jeg likte litt "how to disapear compleatly". men resten av det jeg hørte ble mas

Not my thing lol

ужс

Fav song- how to disappear completely / everything in its right place

Idk I don’t think this is my type of music I didn’t quite enjoy listening to it

Never listened to Radiohead before (which seems sacrilege for a millennial) but I enjoyed it. The creepy atmosphere matched my mood of being sick with the flu, so thanks for the vibe.

This is my first Radiohead album of the project. It's very electronic-tinged, possibly with krautrock elements. Vocals and lyricism mostly takes a backseat here to electronic ambient soundscapes and experimental rock songs, as happened on Tago Mago 30 years earlier. In fact, Yorke usually applies distortion to his voice on many songs. However, unlike Tago Mago, this album is all about atmosphere. This isn't an album that hits you hard with lyrical wit or flashy virtuosity; it's an album that takes you on an aural journey through numerous soundscapes. It's not the life-changing masterpiece many reviews say it is, but it's still a damn good album. And a damn good album is still worth five stars.

I can remember the stir when this came out so it's quite strange 26 years on, the critical re-evaluation seems to skip straight to the part where everybody actually got it all along and loved it even more than OK Computer. I think maybe it's a US/UK thing. Here in the UK, we thought it was weird and missed Johnny Greenwood's signature guitar crunches. Without the shock and disappointment that this was never going to be OK Computer 2.0, it's a really enjoyable album but it took me a bit of time to come back and give it the time of day. And I wasn't even the biggest Radiohead fan in 2000. There are some amazing moments; the opening run is brilliant and I really like the ending but the middle section gets too noodly and isn't particularly memorable. I think it's enormously overrated but that doesn't mean I don't recognise its quality and enjoy listening to it nonetheless. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I still prefer The Bends.

Pretty good, experimental but some songs are really good and hit me in the feels

It’s been acclaimed to the moon and back but man, what a fucking record. It’s atmospheric and immediate and just strange enough. Perfect cold weather music. Makes me feel alone and understood at the same time.

I liked this more than other Radiohead albums. It was a little more of a finished idea and some of the grooves were good. 3.5/5 Might listen again

Beautiful album. Need to listen to it more. Haunting melodies and lyrics, which is very much their style anyway.

A lot of these tracks have good backing music but I don't really get on with the vocals most of the time. There's something about the extended or repeated high-pitched notes that I find more grating than anything, and a lot of them sound monotonous as a result. The riffs of National Anthem and Optimistic are nice and had me nodding along, I loved the hard beat of Idioteque though I don't think the alternating lines extending really worked. Motion Picture Soundtrack had an irregular beat I think, which I appreciated even though again the vocals let it down for me. Kid A and Treefingers both sound like they could have come out of Minecraft, in a good way. Very easy listening that fit the background well. The former I like especially. How to Disappear Completely is a real standout though, I was fascinated by it. The sustained violin at the beginning gives a strange, uneasy feeling that undercuts the melancholic guitar, making you feel like there's some sort of unspoken, lingering threat. It contrasts really nicely, and the lack of it later feels like a relief - which I think is a really interesting thing to pair with the lyrics. This was the only song I really enjoyed the vocals to. There's a moment towards the end where the song almost falls apart, before it collects itself again, which also caught my interest. Honestly this track alone elevates the album from a 2 or 3 to a 4 for me.

Optimistic is probably the album highlight, a little bit repetitive but i'd rate it pretty good really not a fan of national anthem, even more repetitve Idioteque sounds like your coworker with headphones on who thinks they're singing in tune with their music but nobody else can hear it. It does slightly do the thing i like in albums where a song blends into the start of the next, but it doesnt feel like pink flloyd or anything where it transfers, it feels more like a dj is just fading one down and the next up. I'm not getting a massively cohesive progression through the album, or story or anything that I have come to expect from this era of rock. What this means for my listening habits is its really hard to just chuck a highlight track into a playlist because then it starts with the resolution of the previous track, and ends with the start of the next which will then just get cut off by shuffle. I'm giving it a 2, its probably actually a 3.5ish but I'm lowballing it because I had higher expectations

Have always had kind of a love-hate relationship with this album (O.K. Computer is pretty much perfect, then this was the start of a big falloff). I liked listening to it today, though.

got some serious tunes on

Nicht so mein Shit einfach...

Pretty good.

Not really a big fan of Radiohead so i can take or leave this one. Musically not bad and you can see the talent but doesnt do it for me.

Kid A was the name of Len Houmous’ first and only child. 3.0 3/11 The National Anthem

never liked radiohead that much, this album is okay at best, has some IDM elements but it feels a bit too conventional for my taste, like the average joe can listen to it and enjoy it but for me its not that interesting.

#3/1001🇬🇧 Listened to this loads when it came out but its been a long time since i heard it in full. Its been a blast hearing it again, in particular through headphones out walking in the snow this morning. I'm giving it a solid 4, but will i come back to it again any time soon? Probably not. Best songs Idioteque and National Anthem.

Sehr experimentell, hat mit "Rock" nichts zu tun *denk Kann man mal machen. Hat bei mir ne Weile gedauert bis ich mich reingehört habe. War nach erster Abwehrreaktion bei mir dann doch ganz hörbar.

classic 8/10

I listened to this during a dreadful snowstorm, real feel -17°C, while sauntering through a cemetery. The album was the dreariest thing in the arsenal.

Sounds like the soundtrack to some sad coming of age A24 film, and that’s kinda why I love it.

Everything in its right place.

Loved this album on release as it mixes rock with jazz and krautrock .Its a complete move away from the sound of the 3 previous albums. A fab album and a nice return for me having not played for a number of years.

A brilliant album amongst an array of Radiohead brilliant albums.

Solid album. Definitely appreciate the more ambient feel compared to OK Computer.

This is a tough album for me to evaluate because I have such personal attachments to it. Kid A was released when I was 13 and, at the time, It was the strangest, most experimental thing I had ever heard. I bought the CD at a mall when I visited my grandparents and I associate this album with listening on my discman on the train in subzero temperatures traveling back to Rochester. I became obsessed with this album and poured over the CD artwork. Only 2 other kids in my high school liked Radiohead and they were both older and cooler than me. Since then, I've come to appreciate much more unusual music so there is now a bit of a "mainstream version of the underground" veneer to this album, sort of like watching Garden State or Eternal Sunshine and thinking you've tapped into something really obscure. Nevertheless, my soft spot for this album remains. It is icy and scary and tender and heartfelt all at the same time. What's remarkable is not how "experimental" this album is, but rather how it remains pop music in spite of all the strangeness. Critics are correct to point out that there were many artists who had already achieved a similar aesthetic, only weirder, better, and earlier than Radiohead. But, for better or worse, Kid A bridged a gap between the popular and these electronic experimentalists in an oddly accessible way. Maybe if I were a college student or sneaking out to raves I would have been into Aphex Twin, but I was a middle schooler who listened to modern rock radio so it was much easier for me to find stranger music via the Karma Police band. I have mixed feelings about Radiohead these days, but if they've made anything I can enjoy it's this album. Even if there's a slight cringe to my enjoyment, Kid A opened many doors for me as a musician.

Barely close second behind OK Computer Everything in its right place and idoteque are both 10s 4.5

Pretty cool except for a couple of annoying tracks.

One of my favorite records. Doomer earworms The sound of futuristic ennui At least he reminds us, "the best you can is good enough." Surely need the reminder in 2026.

Incredible. Music defying. Top 10 of all time.

Not really my thing, I don't really like Thom Yorke's voice either. Favourite tracks: The National Anthem, Idioteque

An all-timer. Incredible album that's great for getting into the creative or restful mindset. It changes every time I listen to it. A unique, original sound.

Crei que no me iba a gustar pero si! Despues escuche ok computer y este me siguio pareciendo mejor

Very chill, pleasant, easy listening. Not sure I particularly enjoy Thom Yorke's voice, but it's not grating to me either. Don't think I'll return to this. 6/10. For the purposes of this project, I will rate 9 or 10/10s 5 stars, 7 or 8/10s 4 stars, 5 or 6/10s 3 stars, 3 or 4/10s 2 stars, and 0, 1 or 2/10s 1 star

5/5

I didn't like it, it was a bit too experimental for my music taste. Most of the songs were listenable, but not enjoyable. So, I didn't add it to my Library, and I stoppped listening to it a the song In Limbo.

Although there seems to be several points were the album sounds peaceful and melodious unfortunately it does not last long before it screeches back into static noise. Nope not pleasurable to my eardrums.

Super Dope

Dire

Not even mid, this is depressing.

Creative and beautiful but not really my type

I was lowkey bored the whole time but the lack of lyrics is cool ig?

This album ass bruh

This album is a tough one to write about. I love conceptual albums or albums that try to make stuff outside of the normalcy of music-making, so you think I’d love this album. And while I listened to every song, enjoyed listening to them and appreciated the awesome sound Radiohead produced, it was hard for me to sit down and listen. I constantly had to tell myself to finish the album because it wasn’t bringing me back. 3/5

i’m not emo enough for this

Okay, but what about Kid B??

Kind of a January vibe

Es un disco que volvería a escuchar.

O tintilhar de Motion Picture como se sininhos e estrelas piscassem é tão alucinatório na melodia, que lenta, enfatiza o que essa música me faz sentir : A transformação. A letra que fala da desilusão ( motor das mudanças) brilha quando termina na frase "I will see you in the next life." O vocalista do álbum modula tanto a voz pro agudo, depois desmodula, que se torna dramático. Apesar dessa modulação parecer com um tédio, ela não é apática, mas de fato ksenia, é uma voz inóspita, próprio da infância referenciada no título do álbum. Morning Bell, constante na bateria e com uma voz mais divertida, realmente agita as coisas para então em Idiotique termos desorientação com pratos batendo e a voz ruidosa, mesmo que nessa confusão os sons camuflados nos deixem intrigados pelo que está abaixo da voz estridente e da riqueza. Ambas as músicas com sua letras perturbadoras vão de um polo ao outro, de alegria a demência. Em Idiotique uma riqueza que ( ao contrário de Motion Picture) parece uma Arca de Moedas caindo no chão, sons ainda mais desordenados, metálicos e convulsionantes. Parece grunge, mas isso eu falo como leigo. Só acho que grunge se pareceria com isso. Eu tive que parar em In Limbo para escrever porque é até agora a minha favorita, e a última que escutei do álbum antes de acabá-lo, então virão outras. Eu posso ouvir as mãos na caprichosas na guitarra e a a maior suavidade da voz. Eu escuto a engrenagem das cordas de In Limbo com fascínio, como se estivesse prestes a desvendar o cubo mágico. É o som que só dedos poderiam produzir através de cordas. E eu não entendia porque essa música me lembrava algumas cenas em estradas, agora eu sei, ela contém a sensação de descoberta e ao mesmo tempo conclusão quando eu escuto o chiado som de televisão no final dela. E toda conclusão é sempre uma descoberta. Pouco antes desse som de TV sem sinal surgir, a voz suave se multiplica, são várias vozes juntas cantando " Voltar" para se depois todas diluirem. A letra sobre isolamento, sobre a certeza de escolha de perder contato com parceceiro pede por auto conhecimento, pede por retorno a quem somos. Eu estou de joelhos!

Uma sensação inóspita

Gode hits, lækkert, lidt for lækkert måske

A very mellow album!

I feel like the main character in an indie movie with this as the soundtrack

How to disappear completely siempre tendrá un lugar en mi corazón ♥️

perfect for someone having a perpetual life crisis

This album is peak radiohead and radiohead is great!

heartbreaking, electronic, etherial, psychological, satisfying... Track Highlights: Everything in its Right Place, How to Disappear Completely, Treefingers, Optimistic

One of the best albums of the decade, no discussion.

Some of it is interesting, but more of it was boring. 2.8.

love it

did not enjoy it.

Hated it

Never listened to it before. Have listened to OK Computer, which is a better album, but arguably, it also took a while for me to "understand" and get into. I suspect it'll be the same with this album. It's a good one, but not one I'd put on soon, unless I'd be in the mood to do so. I like that it's more of an album experience (as opposed to a bunch of loose songs together). 8 / 10 for me right now

Sonically mesmerizing.

Not my favourite Radiohead album. Interested to see which other RH albums made the list. It’s coherently its own thing, which I respect. Listened on my phone speaker - perhaps unfair. Given that I’m not expecting any of these albums to be objectively terrible, I’m going to use a pretty harsh rating system. This gets a 2 - I wouldn’t mind if I don’t hear it again!

I don't really see what the hype is around this band.. Most of their stuff isn't this bad though.

still classic

2nd Radiohead album to come my way and another good listen, though I think I might prefer The Bends over this one, if I had to compare the two. Although, "Everything in its Right Place" and "Motion Picture Soundtrack" are both fantastic songs in the way they establish a mood and both of those come from Kid A.

This album was good but something I enjoyed too much. It’s super alternative. Dark and moody for sure. The lyrics seem darn. I think I need to listen to it more. Is it about someone contemplating suicide??

zzz... Álbum pretensioso, banda superestimada. Não faço ideia do porquê deveria ouvir isso antes de morrer. 1/5 (na verdade é 0).

Soundscape of an album. Works as a proper album.

I see why people like thos, but no songs stood out to me.

If I had found this album in 2017, it would have been foundational to my personality

i only liked one song and that was "how to disappear completely."

Radiohead is simply just not for me. I like a couple of their tracks, but overall it's just not my sound.

not enough singing

two of the songs were nice. the rest sounds like men if they ovulated

i'm familiar with this album, listened to it once fully, and had a few songs that i saved and continued to listen to afterwards. going back to it, with a deeper appreciation of electronic music, i think i can appreciate it more. a track that really stood out to me this time was treefingers! i loved the ambiance. overall pretty solid, not my favorite of theirs, but good nonetheless.

listened to individual songs before but the album together is simply amazing

Very chill, mellow vibes. Some songs are super beautiful, others are a bit abstract. It isn’t my favorite but don’t dislike it. It’s pretty good for what it is, 3-3.5/5

This is not my style at all but I do recognize a high level of artistry. Feels like a passion project, like Pet Sounds. I may have enjoyed it more if I did not know the band going into it.

Primeiro albúm que estou a ouvir como parte deste desafio, gostei. Devia ouvir mais de A Tribe Called Quest. Neste aqui tanto o tema de abertura como o final são bangers, a minha favorita é capaz de ter sido "What?".

Absolutely love this album. Coming to this after The Bends and OK Computer I wasn't sure about it the first time I heard it, but it has grown on me every time I've listened. Idoteque and The National Anthem are favorites, but all are good and make up a coherent album that flows beautifully. The drumming and bass playing are so tight and perfect. Singing is subdued for Yorke, fits perfectly. Album number 6, and my first 5 star

7/10

Meistaraverk.

When it was released this was an all time favorite album for me. I still love parts of it, but Radiohead doesn't hold my favor anymore.
