you just forfeited your music license. in six months if you've learned your lesson, you can listen to music again.

honestly, pablo honey is one of the worst mainstream album of the 1990's. "lurgee" is the only redeeming moment, and it's only half as good as the worst song on their other albums. the rest is bland, boring, contrived, and downright awful. even the band itself has gone on record as saying the album basically sucked and that they wish they'd never written "creep."

OK Computer for me is their best CD...

It depends on the mood I'm in though, when I'm a bit depressed Kid A and Amnesiac are simply incredible (except Revolving Doors which I still can't stand). I love The Bends, especially when I'm in my car and Hail to the thief is a pretty inconsistent record if you ask me... I really love some songs (like 2+2=5, A wolf at the door, There There... ) even though some songs don't make a strong impression on me (like Sail to the Moon)

OK Computer, then the Bends.

I tell myself Radiohead broke up after OK Computer, as its just torture trying to sit through any of their albums after that. I truly can't stand them. So I feel happier thinking they left the music world on a high note with OK Computer.

Kid A

such a ballsy move and IMHO they executed it flawlessly... I never get tired of spinning it.

Kid A is the only one I legally own.

And I'm with Reliant on this one still, The Bends.

But after that, OK Computer, then Pablo Honey, then Amnesiac, then Hail To The Thief. I dunno about the last two actually, they're kinda tough to call.

For me it is The Bends, then Pablo, then Ok Computer and then I don't know about the rest. I really like the older Radiohead stuff.
