i think IR is radiohead's most exquisite album. it's perfect.

Probably trying to distance themselves from their old sound. There was a huge change in their attitude when OK Computer started doing well. Their live performances lost quite a bit of fun and they suddenly became a bit too serious (read up themselves a tiny bit).

Of course, they're still good now but they, and most of the crowd, take them a bit too seriously and the live shows aren't as appealing as they once were.

i think i disagree.

i think they've just matured. the IR tour was beautiful, and by far the best show i've ever been to.

Just thought I'd bump this post.

That's not good... it's a simple .gif, a little long maybe, but nothing to complicated.

Anyways, whoever it is that doesn't have In Rainbows yet is really missing out. That album gets better with every listen.

you should get a mac.

Macs are just as fast PCs. People just tend to have older PCs, where as Mac users buy a new laptop every year :P

I've listened to all of Radiohead's albums and I still don't get them.

You must have an eclectic taste in music then. Pablo Honey is accessible Brit-pop, The Bends and OK Computer are great alternative rock, and the rest are mostly electronic stuff. If you haven't found something you like... :o

The Bends and OK Computer are their only albums worth listening, but I'll admith they're pretty good in their own right.
