3, but for The Killing Moon

Started off above expectations but once we hit Rock Lobster the whole thing was ruined

America and A Hazy Shade of Winter only just nudge it up one star, but this really wasn't as good as expected.

Great songs but poor, dated production.

No doubt these were fantastic musicians. But I just didn't care.

It took me a couple of tries to get through Roundabout and I can't even remember listening to the rest

Really good, but hardly essential listening.

By all accounts, this is one of the best albums ever made. Fuck, I'm out of touch.

Mediocre, but nudged up one star for Angels and Let Me Entertain You.

It's a bit telling that Africano stood out as far superior to the others. I did not really dig the singing on this. I am not having a good day for falsetto.

Oh for fuck's sake...

Better than most of the Beach Boys output

There She Goes doesn't fit in on this. The album would have worked better as a more coherent whole without it.

The Bends and OK Computer were so fucking good it took me a couple decades before I realized I don't actually like Radiohead. I know there is another album I quite enjoyed, but this was not it. I might even prefer Pablo Honey to probably everything from Kid A on.

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.

I felt Operation dragged on for a bit too long but otherwise this was a solid record

Bit too cute, bit too fun. Too long. I realise its importance in music history, so I guess I'll add one star for that.

One hour of this is a bit much. Halcyon+On+On is quite enough. Time Becomes is a really bad way to open your album.

I listened to this 10 hours ago and the only thing I seem to recall is that it ended better than it started

Radiohead put out two of the greatest albums of all time, then said "Fuck all that" and did this and apparently it's perceived as their best work. I have tried to get into this several times during various stages of my life ever since it came out but it just does nothing for me. I don't like it a lot on its own merits but even less as a follow-up to OK Computer.
