I think we should all just agree that I Will is the best song off it and be done with it

The Gloaming is my favorite. I'd didn't fully appreciate it until I saw it played live though. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Here's what did it for me: fast forward to like 5:30 in the vid

WIEAYB has a groovy bassline, but that's really the only thing I like about it, it sounds really dull and atonal to me, and it's just very repetitive, no real hook to catch my interest. I think it's the worst song on the album. The climax where Yorke keeps singing "I Will Eat You Alive" just comes off as rather silly to me.

I never realized HTTT appealed to different people SO differently. There There might be their best live song imo

I agree these are some of the albums highlights for me.

WORST TRACK


But anyway so is this the 4th or 3rd time we've discussed Hail to the Thief being 'underrated'. Also there is a difference between being underrated and just not being that great.

^ You're underrating HTTT, that's why it's underrated.

HTT just isnt worth being called underrated, no one really mentions it because its not worth mentioning, its pretty low on Radiohead standards. Its a stumble after Amnesiac before they get back in step with In Rainbows.
