The everyone LOVES radiohead thread!

Separator from the TKOL Live from the Basement is top 5 Radiohead.

It's finally here

There are a lot of different formats available this time, including a US$90 cassette version (we are a target market)

I'm really liking 'If You Say The Word' - it's almost criminal how much good stuff Radiohead must still have in their vaults.

[Leatherhead]

I pretty much don't know Radiohead at all. All that I can think of is Creep. And I can't say I've ever even tried to know Radiohead. I think it's time.
Ohhhh geeze, where to start.

[Leatherhead]

I didn't know High and Dry is Radiohead. I think I liked Planet Telex more than The Bends.

I'd say go chronologically.

Man I'm jealous of you getting to 'discover' Radiohead's discography virtually from scratch.

I just did the same with Talking Heads

[Leatherhead]

Fake Plastic Trees is about half over and my excitement for this album has waned, a bit.

[Leatherhead]

A couple songs later, things are looking up.

[Leatherhead]

Oh I think I've heard this one before.

[Leatherhead]

Things are moving along nicely. Don't fuck it up #8.

[Leatherhead]

Was that the bridge? That was awesome.

[Leatherhead]

Nope.

By the end of #9 through #11 I was starting to fade a bit. Street Spirit brought me back in to finish the album off strong.

[Leatherhead]

That was pretty good. After first listen, here's my attempt at ranking the songs.

My Iron Lung
Bones
Just
Planet Telex
The Bends
Street Spirit (Fade Out)
High and Dry
(Nice Dream)
Fake Plastic Trees
Bullet Proof ... I wish I was
Sulk
Black Star

I'm worried the further I go, the less I'll hear songs like my top 5 here.

Take your time. As a more casual Radiohead admirer, I can say too much to fast can be draining. I agree it is best chronologically. OK Computer and In Rainbows are my two clear favorites, but I also really enjoy Kid A and The Bends. Last time around also really liked Hail to the Thief.

All the albums are really good (Pablo Honey is good but can seem a bit bland and kind of recycling of the same vibe that was happening at the time).

Assuming this was the back half of "My Iron Lung"

[Higgs]

That was pretty good. After first listen, here's my attempt at ranking the songs.

Good man.

We are RM. We rank.
