I hated this album when I first bought as you all probably know. Now I can't get enough of it. The subtle things really make this a winner. Like nothing else I've heard before, which made me give this an excellent. It's still overrated though, but nothing could really match the level of hysteria this caused.

Start Kid A in Winamp, and at 17 seconds start Kid A in another media player. You'd be amazed that they were able to do this.
God. That's awesome. Go Kid A.

Kid A is the only Radiohead album I really like. Don't know why.

Kid A is my favorite. But I like all of their albums.

OK Computer was the album that made me fall in love with Radiohead.
Excellent.

Really, why do you think that? I'd love to hear your opinion.

Well usually the common justification for calling this a bad album is that Subterranean Homesick Alien kinda sounds like U2.

One thing I remember about this album was it made all the year end lists. Most of the times at the very top. Not just Indie lists but many mainstream and popular lists. Then a wave of bands trying to emulate the sound of Radiohead wasn't far behind. I bought my copy of OK Computer the day it came out and remember telling my friends that this album will someday be mentioned along such classics like Revolver, Pet Sounds and Dark Side Of The Moon.
