The Official Radiohead Thread

Rainard Jalen · 12-05-2008, 12:57 PM

what i find interesting is, from the statistics in this poll, the MASSIVE consensus against Hail To The Thief. I never realized that the fan views were so heavily weighted against it.

Well it's a poll for favorite album, not least favorite. I'd be willing to bet Pablo Honey would run away with least favorite. HTTT and Amnesiac would probably contend for next least, though that spot is for The Bends in my book.

That is true, but what I mean is I would have thought at least more than 3 people thought HttF was their favourite Radiohead album.

Yeah you'd at least assume it would have more than Pablo Honey. Oh well though, we both know it's a good album right?

I agree with this completely. If they cut out some songs, HTTT could potentially be my no. 1 favorite album. My favorites are Kid A, Amnesiac, then HTTT. I never understood all the hype over OKC. I think it just may be that I like the later style of Radiohead more than their earlier style.

Like Rainard, those are some of my favorite tracks on the album. In fact Sit Down, Stand Up was the first Radiohead I heard, and it blew me away. I loved it from first listen.

Recommend me a song guys, I like the radio friendly songs (Creep, Karma Police)

sweet_nothing · 12-07-2008, 02:09 PM

The Bends

High and Dry
Street Spirit
Electioneering
Anyone Can Play Guitar
Bodysnatchers

Pretty much the entire Bends album is user friendly

Oh lol this sorta rules, the lead guitar on the first song is annoying but I actually do like the song thanks a lot!

In Rainbows is equally accessible and much more polished if you wanna check that out. Check out the song Paranoid Android as well, that song usually does it for just about anybody.
