Yeah my favorite part is hearing/seeing 'Life in a Glass House' acoustic and an early form of 'How to Dissappear.' And yeah, the part where Thom has to hold his breath looked pretty rough, i felt really bad for him.

1. ok computer
2. amnesiac
3. kid a
4. the bends
5. in rainbows

amnesiac is bookended by two pretty excellent tracks. life in a glasshouse is by far my favorite from them. ok computer is worlds better from top to bottom though.

i can't really listen to pablo honey. each time i try i just find myself wincing and wishing they hadn't made it.

only because, for some reason, 5 seems like less of a random arbitrary number than 6. i really don't think any less of that album than i do of in rainbows. it's pretty stellar.

Yeah i think it's a bit underappreciated... I think the problem with it is that at 14 songs it gets a bit tedious, and some of it begins to feel like filler. It should probably have been around 10-11 songs and it would have been a stronger album. I'm just nitpicking though, its still a 9/10 album and if you asked me to cut out 4 songs I would have no idea where to start.

My fav's off Hail To The Thief:
There There
Wolf At The Door
Myxomatosis
Where I End And You Begin

I remember Thom saying something like he hated the way the album sounded because he thinks they rushed it when they were recording it. And is it just me or is 2+2=5 very reminiscent of Paranoid Android?

In the tempo changes perhaps...

My favorite would either be 'The Gloaming' (Which i've fallen in love with after seeing it live) or 'We Suck Young Blood.' And did you read what pitchfork said about 'Where I End and You Begin'?

2+2=5 is one of my favorite tracks from HTTT. Also, from what I gather, a lot of Radiohead songs sound a bit similar.

No, what did the great pitchfork have to say?
