Why does this get compared to OK Computer or Kid A? This album sucks

what an embarrasing post

okc, kid a, amnesiac and even hail to the thief were all experimental and interesting, this is just boring "melodic" music, which has never been radiohead's forte

It's their most accessible, combining the lessons they learned post-OKC with more down to earth, relatable songwriting and lyricism a la Bends. Personally, I prefer the neuroticism tilt they were on from OKC to HTTT, as well as find AMSP a better version of IR with its more ambient progressions and denser textures. But for pure pop pleasure, Radiohead never did it better than on IR.

Amnesiac is their only album that really teeters into avant-garde territory and ONLY on cuts like Pulk/Pull and Like Spinning Plates. They're really not that experimental of a band at all, just a bit left field by pop standards.

finally a good response, was trying to figure out what i didnt like about this album, thank you

>not like melody
The mark of pseud.

>Radiohead: *Is a pop rock band*
>OP: "Melody is not their forte"
this has to be bait

>Radiohead is a pop rock band
lol go listen to a real pop rock band like weezer or nirvana and tell me if the two sound even remotely similar.

I love Radiohead, but anyone who has listened to more than 100 albums in their time knows they are pop

Nirvana and weezer are garage rock which is a subgenre of pop rock

>Nirvana

>Pop rock

Bro what
