Your opinion, which I disagree with, but that's beside the point. Regardless of quality I expect some level of daring, a willingness to try new things. Doesn't have to be innovative, just something new.

Which do you guys think Radiohead have a better supply of, opening tracks or closing tracks?

You
Planet Telex
Airbag
Everything In Its Right Place
Packt Like Sardines In a Crushed Tin Box
2+2=5
15 Step

vs

Blow Out
Street Spirit
The Tourist
Motion Picture Soundtrack
Life In A Glass House
Wolf at the Door
Videotape

(Notice how all their closing songs are pretty slow relaxed songs, musically?)


I personally prefer the opening tracks hell take out You & 2+2=5 and you have a list of my favorite Radiohead songs.

def openers. 2+2=5, Everything In Its Right Place and Packt Like Sardines In a Crushed Tin Box are some of my favorites by them.

[Piss Me Off]

About even i think. 2+2=5 is my fave opener and Blow Out is my fave closer (close with The Tourist though).

Life in a Glass House, Motion Picture Soundtrack, Wolf at the Door, and Street Spirit. You gotta go with the closers.

So I gave OK Computer about 495028049 tries and it just won't click with me. However, I freaking love Kid A. So, since Amnesiac is supposed to be the only Radiohead album similar to Kid A, I'll give that a shot next.
And after that....I don't know. What would you guys reccomend? I've read mixed reviews about In Rainbows and The Bends, I've heard from pretty much everywhere that Pablo Honey is shit, and I haven't heard anything about Hail to the Thief.

OKC is great, though apparently you don't like it, HTTT would be semi similar to OKC but also a bit political with 4 or 5 filler songs. In Rainbows is great IMO, though Urban disagrees. And The Bends is ok, but sounds incredibly dated and has some filler.
