Maybe I should listen to In Rainbows more, maybe I'm missing out on something worth listening to more?
I just find that The White Stripes do it for me every time and without much initial listening.

Of course and I would'nt change this for anything. You are not a big rock fan whereas I can get my riff satisfaction from this area, so STRIPES don't sound much different to a lot of other stuff I like and have heard already. I adore the STRIPES approach to music but I can't help but feel that they are just a garage rock band. I would'nt say Radiohead are better than the Stripes at all. They both play different forms of music. Stripes are much more natural and raw but i feel that their music is based on riffs and not enough emotion comes out of their records. I can hear Radioheads pain, discomfort, alienation in their music. I cannot in the Stripes.
As you say different strokes etc. A lot of fans and critics alike love the track RECKONER from IN RAINBOWS. I think it is one of the weakest tracks on the album! I think i'm just plain odd really lol.
