The everyone LOVES radiohead thread!

[Birds in Hell]

You're going to have to try King of Limbs again someday, Joey.

Yeah?

Do you know how good Bloom is? Like, really, really good. Little By Little's no slouch either, nor Feral. Lotus Flower is superb.

And the assorted other songs from that period, eg. Staircase, The Butcher, The Daily Mail, are all fantastic.

[Chris_H_2]

Weird Fishes/Arpeggi

Very, very underrated. Love it.

[LetMeSleep]

This should probably be in the Admit Something thread but I haven't listened to a post Kid A album more than 10 times, often once.

My prescription is to take ten doses of In Rainbows then work backwards from there before trying to attempt King Of Limbs

Will do Brad. Well I'll try.

[Birds in Hell]

I've only listened to KoL 1 and 1/2 times.

I wouldn't say it's a very immediate record, so this might be the problem.

It's been a while since I've heard it, but I remember thinking "The Daily Mail" was the most boring piece of crap Radiohead ever released. I felt like I was listening to Five for Fighting.

[Chris_H_2]

It's really hard for me to make a top 10. I just know that Permanent Daylight and Lurgee would both make the cut.

The Daily Mail is great.

That was almost impossible.

[bodysnatcher]

Top 10 ever? Fuck that's damn near impossible... pfffffffffffff.... I guess right now, off the top of my head, I'd go:

1. Big Boots (Man-o-War)

Is there a quality recording of this floating around?

Or, a quality collection of unreleased songs?

[bodysnatcher]

favorite from each album, today:

Pablo Honey: Blow Out
The Bends: Street Spirit
OK Computer: Climbing Up The Walls
Kid A: Everything In Its Right Place
Amnesia: I Might Be Wrong
HTTT: There, There
In Rainbows: Reckoner
King Of Limbs: Codex

[Birds in Hell]

Pablo Honey: Blow Out

I'm not terribly fond of 90s Radiohead but Blow Out's a solid song.

[Wendy Carlos's Twin]

Best version I've heard is from this show:

The Daily Mail is fucking amazing.

[Kevin Davis]

"King of Limbs" answers only to "In Rainbows" and "OK Computer" on my list of favorite albums -- it is a wonderful album, not at all digestible in 1.5 listens.

Top 10? Bring that shit.

Let Down
Karma Police
In Limbo
Packt Like Sardines
Life in a Glasshouse
A Wolf at the Door
Reckoner
Weird Fishes/Arpeggi
Lotus Flower
Bloom

[Kaius]

The lack of love for King if Limbs is alarming. I'm truly shocked. It's a brilliant album that is still surprising me after many listens.

[LetMeSleep]

Reckoner

[ridleybradout]

Reckoner

Random factoid: Reckoner was the only non-King of Limbs track to be played at every show on the last tour.

[Chris_H_2]

Reckoner

Random factoid: Reckoner was the only non-King of Limbs track to be played at every show on the last tour.

That makes sense -- it's a perfect song for 2 drummers.
