Difficult? I think its Radiohead most accesible album. Its mainstream as hell. Specially for a band that made Kid A or The King Of Limbs.

Really? I can’t listen to Pablo. It’s very much of its time. An emerging band not in any way fully formed.
They blossomed with the bends. But I think ok crystallizes the band they’re about to be.
It’s a wonderful piece. Sad it’s not there for you trag

i cant see ok computer as anything but a complete album. even when i listen to individual songs from the album by themselves, its like reading one chapter of a book. admittedly they are one of my favorite bands, but ok computer is as much an album from front to back as anything i can think of.

It is quite tiring to listen to OK Computer all the way through.

It’s a piece of art, or about as close as modern rock has come, but I understand what you mean. The music summons specific memories for me, not all of which are pleasant, and that makes its impact different and darker than something like Yield

I’m no Radiohead expert or even major fan but OK and kid a always went hand in hand for me.
I mean they lost me completely after that but these two really just compliment each other so well for my ears.

I never recovered from Kid A. I still bought the next couple albums but it was never the same. That run from The Bends through OK and it's b-sides is probably amoungst the greatest in modern rock history.

Same boat. Now I think just about everything they've released is aces.

I don't think many people were ready. That album ushered in something that was so extraordinarily different on its own, particularly on the heels of OK Computer. But in hindsight, the signs were all there with OK Computer; that album is more or less an amalgam of The Bends and Kid A. But again, people just didn't see it at the time.

King of Limbs is the only one that doesn't fully resonate with me.

Radiohead never really clicked for me till Kid A. I was working in a music store at the time and they had it playing, and I fell in love

Kid A is where my interest in Radiohead begins, really.
