Great vid! I used to think Amnesiac felt like Kid A b-sides, but I've come to appreciate how fractured and rough around the edges the whole thing is. It's like Spoon - Transference (idk if you've heard that album), the minimalism and choppiness gives it this manic energy, like it's portraying a character losing their mind. It's no Kid A though, for sure
Best Radiohead albums: 1. Yeezus 2. Pinkerton 3. Nevermind 4. Revolver 5. The Dark Side Of The Moon 6. Trout Mask Replica 7. Loveless 8. In The Aeroplane Over The Sea 9. Pablo Honey
I feel like the bends should be higher. It’s my second favorite album and I get that it’s not groundbreaking, but the replay ability and melodies make it perfect in my opinion.
my ranking 1: A Moon Shaped Pool 2: In Rainbows 3: Hail to the Thief 4: Kid A/Amnesiac 5: The King Of Limbs (including bsides) 6: OK Computer 7: The King Of Limbs (excluding bsides) 8: The Bends 9: Pablo Honey These albums are all top tier for me though lol
My personal opinion: 1. In Rainbows 2. Ok Computer 3. Kid A 4. A Moon Shaped Pool 5. The Bends 6. Hail to the Thief 7. Amnesiac 8. The King of Limbs 9. Pablo Honey
Great video, will definitely be subbing after this. I’m glad you have AMSP the respect that it deserves, truly one of the most beautiful but also devastating albums I’ve ever heard
Kid A is the album that blown my mind and introduced me to the world of electronic music, especially IDM with Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, Autechre etc. The thing I love with Radiohead is their constant experimentation in term of sounds, genres. You can start from Rock, to Electronic, to Jazzy sound (Life in a Glasshouse, Amnesiac album overall) to ""rap"" (A Wolf At The Door) , continue with weird hypnotising rythm sounds (Kind of Limbs) and finally finish your Radiohead journey with some kind of cinematic and classical music influence (A Moon Shaped Pool)
Blamwagon is probably going to hate me for this because I didn't hear him mention this song when he was talking about Kid A but me personally, my favorite song off Kid A and possibly my favorite song from Radiohead by far is Optimistic!
Pablo Honey is definitely their worst album, but talking really negatively about the record is hard on it. Like not everything on it is bad, it's just meh.
I would agree with pretty much everything you said & where you placed the albums, with the exception of the bends & Kid A, which i would switch round......pretty good take & analogy .....I think the best albums just get better with age & grow on you
I would argue In Rainbows is perfect and certainly more so than OKC but for me IR, OKC, and KA are all perfect albums. I would also argue that if you ever saw Radiohead perform The King Of Limbs live you would have a totally different take on the album, it's complex, rhythmically amazing, groovy and totally hypnotic and the musicianship is off the charts. It feels like a Yes or ELP album from the far future and I sentence you to watching the basement session 5 times to clear your misconceptions once and for all.

The Bends is just gonna be a matter of personal taste I think. It's a lot different than the stuff they'd make down the line

Ayyye, thanks for the support! AMSP definitely gets overshadowed by the big three but deserves all the flowers. Glad I checked it out after so long.
It's so sad that I have a hard time listening to it sometimes (my wife died suddenly at 48) but it's still a beautiful album.

I still like You and Blow Out.
The Bends is my favourite, great songs and flow
Ok Cumputer is perfect
love the nurture vinyl in the back

actually haven’t heard the live performance, i’ll definitely make sure to check it out!
A dad here. Nice ranking of a truly important band. Also liked the Lana Del Rey reference, Summertime Sadness fits well here.
thank you for the dad seal of approval ❤
Should opinions be illegal?
Yes! If they disagree with mine.
Please honey come down to Florida
Pablo Honey is not a awful album nor is King of Lim a bad album, much less amnesiac is a mid album.
