Nice, let us (me?) know what you think.

Also:

"Our guitars are more clitoris substitutes than phallus ones. We stroke them in a nicer, gentler way."
- Jonny Greenwood

I just saw that quote and felt the need to post it.

I like that analogy. I've never thought of guitars as sexual organs.

My Radiohead album order, from best to worst, and my fav tracks are named:

1. The Bends - Fake Plastic Trees, My Iron Lung, Street Spirit (Fade Out)
2. Kid A - The National Anthem, Treefingers, Optimistic, Motion Picture Soundtrack
3. OK Computer - Airbag, Paranoid Android, Karma Police, No Surprises
4. In Rainbows - Bodysnatchers, Nude, Faust Arp
5. Hail to the Thief - 2+2=5, Where I End and You Begin, I Will, Scatterbrain
6. Pablo Honey - Creep, Anyone Can Play Guitar, Blow Out
7. Amnesiac - Pyramid Song, I Might Be Wrong

Kid A was simply a GREAT listen. I thought Optimistic would be the clear winner for my favorite track (had heard it before getting the discography) and then Motion Picture Soundtrack came on and blew me away. Pablo Honey was better than I expected given the vast amount of negative reviews. Amnesiac was pretty so-so, barring the two tracks I highlighted.

EDIT: And Paranoid Android is still my favorite :P

Tru Dat. Amnesiac is pretty underrated I think it's just as good as Kid A. The only songs I dont like on it are Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors and Knives Out, without those it'd be perfect.
