What I've heard about it:
"You're gonna fucking love this one, user" - literally everyone.

I have high expectations.

Excited 4 u

Bends and in rainbows are my two favorites.

Have a comfy night user

you are gonna love it
in rainbows is def one of the best

>One track in
>I fucking love it.

...God damn it.....

I would be lying if I wasn't interested in hearing what someone who isn't familiar with Radiohead has to say about TKoL and AMSP, especially after hearing some earlier stuff.

B side is better than A side

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT WHY DO I LOVE THIS SO MUCH AFTER ONLY 2 TRACKS.

I think I'll be doing those threads tonight. I got nothing to lose.

>The second Nude drops

Still my favorite fucking radiohead song. By far.

Pro tip: the king of limbs is genius
It just takes at least 2 complete listens to get past the face value

I FUCKING LOVE NUDE SO MUCH GOD DAMN....

Noted. Expect pleb reactions.

Oh i forgot you were doing this shit.

What has been your favorite so far?

Nevermind, I read the OP

I... I HIT THE BOOOOTOOOM
HIT THE BOOOOTTOMMM
AND ESCAPE

Best Radiohead song ever.

>Oh i forgot you were doing this shit.
...That's not very nice.....

Only up to Track 4 but Weird Fishes is REALLY close to upping Nude as my favorite Radiohead track....

Probably the most disappointing Radiohead album.

Wait til you hear Da King of limbz, then you gonna hear the real shit

YOUR EYES

THEY TURN ME

>When the strings come in on All I Need

NEW FAVORITE. NEW FAVORITE.
ALL I NEED. OH MY GOD....
THIS IS BEA-...
..oh it ended.

BECAAAUSE BE SEEEPARAAAATEE
LIKE RIPPLEES
ON A BLAAAAAAAANK SHOOOOOOOR
(IN RAIIIIIINBOOOOOOOOOWS)

Reckoner is mu favorite song of all time.
Too bad House of Cards comes right after and it's long and boring as fuck.

This album is only getting fucking better as time passes.
Fucking Reckoner, my man.
Fucking Reckoner....

that song sucks compared to the rest of that album. but wait till you hear fuckin jigsaw falling into place my dude
that song is a revelation

I've given TKOL two listens and it's my least favourite Radiohead album (aside from PH)
What am I missing

My*

UR GONNA LOVE FAUST ARP user, GODSPEED

>House of Cards came on.
Welp I spoke too soon...
....I mean....
...it's alright I guess....

Best song on that album for sure.

>THE BEAT GOES ROUNDD AND ROUND

your'e either going to love or hate videotape

HA HA HA HA user
SUFFER LIKE I DID... well, for me what's even worse, but hey! Jigsaw Falling Into Place is the best on the album.

To be honest I thought it was just good enough.

>Best song on that album for sure.

But that's Bangers + Mash

FAUST ARP user, WAIR FOR IT

I'm way past Faust Arp, man.

You late.
I'm on the last track.

you should totally listen to disk 2

is OP going to listen to Disk 2??

thoughts on jigsaw falling into place? super interested, i wish i could listen to that song for the first time again

>no matter what happens now
>I shouldn't be afraid
>because I know to-day has been
>the most per-fect day i've ev-er seen

I AM the rainbow now. Goodbye friends.

Jigsaw was pretty good but not my favorite.
I'm on the last track and it's super depressing.

come on man that octave change on thom's voice is a 10/10 moment and basically makes the album
admit it

No, the strings on All I need, Nude, and Reckoner make it a 10/10 album.

>10/10 album

>he doesn't think in rainbows is 10/10

Wew lad, doesn't get more pleb than that

In Rainbows is probably my personal favorite Radiohead album, wouldn't say it's a 10 though

/10 album

I don't think any Radiohead album is a 10/10 anyway.

i never said it was a 10/10 album
i said it was a 10/10 moment, and it makes the album
the album itself is an 8 at best although admittedly amazing

did op died?

He killed himself to Videotape. So bad, he could have killed himself to True Love Waits.

I'm alive and shit don't worry.
I keep vomiting rainbows.

I also already heard True Love Waits.

Kill yourself to A Wolf at the Door then. I did.

do the last two pls. TKoL is p short and I want to see you react to AMSP already

I'll probably do TKOL but not AMSP today.

I think he needs to cool it for a while, recover, take a bath

Ok but what did you think of Faust Arp, user? ;__;

Also not to be rude but, why are you so autistic? I've seen all the threads, and apparently you've been depressed for a while? Is Radiohead helping you cope? Or was it autism

you probably already know, but expect TKoL to be their most bleep-bloop album yet, with heavy sampling and looping, especially the guitars

meant especially the drums

here's how the thread will end
>OP - "Gee, this sure is a great album. Onto The King of Limbs!"
/thread

>you've been depressed for a while?
Nah I've been better. One of my close (long distance) friends recently came back and he's been helping me a lot.

Strings on the song were beautiful. Enjoyable track. Slightly short.

Good to hear, user! Hopefully you like AMSP, that album is God in audio form

In Rainbows/TKOL/Moon Shaped Pool is the Patrician trinity of Radiohead albums

OP how old are you?

Would you guys consider In Rainbows a Double Album with the Disc 2?

If it was just outtakes wouldnt they have just called it a bonus disc rather than Disc 2?

Haven't seen an objectively correct statement in Sup Forums in years.

Have a Kimbra on the house, user.

Not him but I'd rather have a Kimbra on my erect penis.

You mean The Bends/OK Computer/Kid A

>ywn have Kimbra riding your dick
>ywn have Kimbra's bright red DSL kissing the tip of your dick and doing that tongue twirling thingy

Existence is just a constant suffering...

You mean OKC/Amnesiac/In Rainbows

No

No because Amnesiac is just Kid A leftovers and In Rainbows is just alright

I agree with this, things were getting way too edgy with hail to the thief.

In Rainbows is simple but it finally ended their edgy early 2000's era.

>Packt Like Sardines in a Crushed Tin Box
>Pyramid Song
>Knives Out
>Life in a Glasshouse

'''''''''leftovers''''''''' amirite?

>Amnesiac is just Kid A leftovers
stop this meme

How can their best album be leftovers?

Jesus Christ what the hell happened when I was on other threads...?

Almost 19.

>Not In Rainbows/Amnesiac/Moon Shaped Pool

wew

>'''''''''leftovers''''''''' amirite?
Yes that's correct. Do you know anything how the album was made?
No OK Computer wasn't leftovers
stop this cognitive dissonance

Amnesiac is the album Plebs prop up as patrish in order to pass themselves off as Patrician

argueing about the true patrish RH streak [spoiler]Amnesiac->HTTT->IR btw[/spoiler]

>Almost 19
ay me too, when's your birthday?

>Radiohead considered releasing them as a series of EPs or a double album, but struggled to find a track listing that satisfied them. Guitarist Ed O'Brien felt the material was too dense for a double album and that listeners might skip tracks.
saying that Amnesiac is "just leftovers" is a very disingenuous way of putting it

>saying that Amnesiac is "just leftovers" is a very disingenuous way of putting it
So is saying it's their "best"

What I object to is the idea that Amnesiac is "only" leftovers. Yes, they're the tracks that didn't go into Kid A, but it's not because they were inferior. They just didn't fit in with Kid A's aesthetic and message.

>So is saying it's their "best"
no, that's called an opinion

Fuck streaks.

1. The Bends
2. Rainbows
3. Kid A

Birthday is in March.

>but it's not because they were inferior
Well, many of them are
>Kid A's aesthetic and message.
Which is what? Please use citations to prove your answer
>no, that's called an uninformed opinion
ftfy

>Birthday is in March.
oh shit. when? Mar 31 here

@ 70893061
fucking wew, no more (You)s for you

9th.

I swear to god the only reason the "kid A leftovers" meme exists is because of Morning Bell.

Also because all the songs were left over from the Kid A sessions.

I'm sorry you were 3 when the album came out and didn't know about the hype at the time, but several of the songs were gonna be on Kid A. Then they were gonna be b-sides. Then it was just an album of random shit

You'd have to be an utter pleb to not recognize that Amnesiac is nowhere near as well sequenced as Kid A.

citation?

LISTEN TO THE BASEMENT VERSION. Live TKOL is waayyyy better than studio. It never clicked with me till I did that.

This.

The basement version of Bloom is god tier.

Codex sounds very overproduced on the album, that one is better live too.

live bonnaroo version of bloom blows minds

[prehistoric sponge]

OK Computer is better than Kid A and the only people who disagree are pseudo-intellectual poseurs who think generic electronic music is more abstruse than near perfectly layered art rock.

and by following the same metric you come to the conclusion that The Bends is their best album.

>The Bends - WONDERFULPERFECTYES/10
that albums just boring

In Rainbows is Radiohead's best album. 15 step, nude, weird fishes, all i need, reckoner, and jigsaw falling into place are all among their best work

It's got some nice songs
