Hail To the Thief
by Radiohead
#1 4/5 Listened: w/ my 20-month old, driving, 2/1/23 Notes: An album I've listened to before, but hadn't held to memory, was a really great start to this 1001 Albums project. Not my favorite of theirs, and not their best, Hail to the Thief is an alt rock gem. A lot of electronic influence throughout this project, a holdover from their Kid A/Amnesiac sessions, makes this album more sonically diverse and more interesting as the tracklist progresses. Sagged a little bit towards the end, but the first half of the record is strong enough on its own. Really solid record. Fav tracks: 2+2=5, Sit Down. Stand Up., The Gloaming, A Punchup at a Wedding, Myxomatosis
