I'd say top 3 but it is really hard to beat Amnesiac.

OK Computer and Kid A are the sentimental faces for the middle school feels that they still give me when I listen to them.
But objectively, In Rainbows is probably their true strongest album

Your probably right but I'm more of a feels > rules kinda guy when it comes to judging things

Codex is really the only song I go back to from that album.

Both have tracks which are either let-downs or forgettable. The transition from Pyramid to Pull/Pulk is the best single moment in their discography though.

It's probably their most consistently good album, but not my favourite.

In Rainbows' first half is literally flawless, but the second half does not even compare. Jigsaw is a banger, but Videotape is one of their worst closers.
Real talk, Kid A is their best album. It flows so well and even tracks like Treefingers work so well in context. It also packs the biggest emotional punch, no matter what some critics say about its "coldness". There's so much emotion in tracks like How To Disappear Completely and Morning Bell, without even mentioning the closer.

And that's the problem with Radiohead, the feels are somewhat diminished because they were so successful that everyone else sounds like them and the old stuff sounds less "special" to your brain as a result.
The Bends is easier to overlook now because Coldplay built an entire career off of cribbing it over and over again and the sound pallette is so overplayed.
OK Computer is in the same boat, only this time it was arguably Muse that built a career off of plagiarising its artistic core.
And Kid A/Amnesiac/HTTT have been so extensively copied by everyone else in the indie world that it was hard to see In Rainbows as being the landmark it was, because it just didn't sound nearly as unique and "special" anymore
>not recognizing their best album
same here
Having bought most of Radiohead's discography this year, I was prepared to be disappointed by KOL but I actually kind of like it.
They went for something a bit more electronic than In Rainbows but not like Kid A, just a lot of dense rhythm.
It's probably somewhere in the middle with Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief.

It's the sudden sharp contrast between the floating, high-register sirens at the end of Pyramid and then the dense, low-register stabs between silence. It's so fucking good. It gives me a feeling unlike any other.

Radiohead are on Pluto
Thom Yorke is nothing to do with whatever the fuck anymore.
"are you a brain? are you a brain? aaaeeeii aaaaa tivking clock elephants and microwave paricle"

i thought that amnesiac was their worst album by far
>>63804138
I felt that HTTT is really inconsistent. It has my favorite opening and closing songs but a lot of the middle is kinda bland.
