I was thinking of In Rainbows as underrated but Kid A is my fave.

Most bands would give their collective left nuts to have that many epic songs over the course of an entire career, let alone on one album.

You’re already aging poorly.

Elph: Ever seen any of those Pink Floyd songs performed live? There's a few tribute bands currently touring doing Floyd stuff, but there's only one that's authentic enough that the surviving members of Floyd let them ape their light show using a lot of their props and lighting equipment.

Aussie Pink Floyd.





Got to see them perform the entire Wall album here in SD. The encore? DSOTM.

I voted for Ziggy btw. I've heard all four of these and it's close between Ziggy, DSOTM and LZ4. The Radiohead album is out of the question. I dunno what it is with Radiohead, I like a couple of their tracks (Everything In It's Right Place, High & Dry) but they are a really dull 'try hard', artsy fartsy kind of band imo, and no matter how many times I've listened to them I don't really get the wankathon, and feel like large amounts of people 'like them' because they are afraid of not 'getting it'.

However I was told by a guy recently that that was his opinion too, until he saw them live and they were phenomenal.
Someone should make a poll for Def Leppard - High & Dry versus Radiohead - High & Dry. :/
