The Official Radiohead Thread

Anybody with the ability to rate The Bends higher than OK Computer loses all credibility with me pretty much instantaneously. The gulf between the albums is stark. On the one hand you have an alternative rock album that barely manages to break past the realms of the mundane, and on the other hand you have a masterpiece of faux avantgarde.

Not quite that extreme or pretentious, but yes.

I'm a bit annoyed at all the HTTT panning here, but otherwise I'm in agreement about OK Computer>>Bends.

Stop bringing up HTTT. There is a discussion about it every week and we always come to the same conclusions.
