I defy you Radiohead fans to find a song with a chord progression more suited for days full of cloudy skies and drizzling rain than "You and Whose Army?"

Any time I feel I lost gusto with the band, I direct myself to their stupendous B-side collection and think, "And this is their fricken B-sides," and all is restored.

Truth...I think I've got over 100 B-sides/leftovers.

It's all the EPs and singles and remixes...it's on my iPod and I haven't any idea how to get them to you in a link.

Ahh ok. I think I have all of those, guess I just never realized they added up to that many songs

Listening to iPod on shuffle and "Go To Sleep (Little Man Being Erased) just a second ago...Wow! Totally forgot about this one. Great song.

So the more I listen to 'Hail To The Thief' the more I like it. Aren't a lot of diehard RH fans not so into this album? To me, it's one of their best.

HTTT is the album I was not at all fond of at first but am still likening better each time I listen to it

When I first got it years ago, I like some songs, but others just didn't click with me at all. The more listens though, the more I like those songs I didn't think I liked.

I know it's one of my favorites. It's absolutely packed with good/great songs. It's definitely their White Album. Definitely listen to it more than The Bends or OKC.

Oh, I like TKOL quite a bit. It's just kind of a low-key affair compared to their usual way of coming at you. They seem very comfortable on TKOL. Whether or not that's a good thing, I don't know.

It's such a dense way of songwriting with the unobvious hooks layered under less obvious hooks. It feels even more rigid and mechanical than Radiohead usually does. The Basement performances add a bit more of an organic feel which makes the proper album itself easier to get into.

I got this yesterday



I haven't been able to check out the links yet, but it sounds interesting to me.

i think we have an atoms for peace thread

does anyone else love radiohead and hate the erasure?

Never given it much of a chance.

The middle of the album loses me a little, but those opening three or four songs are excellent.

Colin says they're back together in September to start working on a new record.
