I agree with you. Except for the song "Street Spirit" (last on The Bends) which is a total atmospheric masterpiece in my eyes.
this new album...originally I was disappointed as I thought it was just more of the same from the band, not particularly interesting. Further listens have made this grow on me, REMARKABLY. I now consider it an extremely good album, possibly my third favourite by this band after OKC and Kid A. I'm not a massive Radiohead fan, but I do like them and I have lots of respect for them. And for me this album has no weak songs. "Nude", "Weird Fishes", "All I Need" and "Videotape" are all AMAZING! "Reckoner" too. The only disappointment is that it isn't a marked change from what they've done before, but it's a minor disappointment because the album is full of lush, brilliantly written songs. Good work Radiohead.
