Post underrated Radiohead songs, best if you can describe why you think they're better than people believe, stand out or if they're better live
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpk835d1K7U
Myxomatosis is fantastic, such a high energy song while still having a complex beat and interesting instrumentals. Thom's performance in this isn't great but the amount of energy he gives off is really what music is about
>>64639392
A lot of Amnesiac , Life in a Glasshouse and You in What army especially
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC9jt689wuc
i feel like in limbo doesnt get enough love, its my fav radiohead song
Spies is often overlooked.
>>64639392
electioneering is a jam and a half
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9qWbWn6sos
same with where i end and you begin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwTFJYAlGwY&list=PLC5227FDAEAF8BD66&index=6
feral is the best track on TKOL
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dapdkr42pLE
whats the most underrated track off OK Computer?
Subterranean Homesick Alien never seems to get as much praise as the big ones, I think it's one of their best
>>64639456
>big bang theory
we 9gag now?
Like spinning plates. The live version on I might Be Wrong is amazing
>>64639456
>>64639392
FUCK WHY THIS THREAD
OP YOU ARE SHIT FACE
i love my mom
subterrenean homesick alien
>>64639484
most underrated is fitter happier, and if that doesn't count, climbing up the walls, exit music and airbag.
>>64639445
In Limbo , underrated , its one of my favs of Kid A
>>64639484
I'd agree, I also think it's unfair to class Fitter Happier as an interlude
>>64639511
Climbing up the walls is one of the best of OC , like it better than No surprises
Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors is GOAT-tier and it deserves more credit.
>>64639456
if you post big bang theory again your mother will die in her sleep tonight.
>>64639392
hail to the thief in general is underrated
wolf at the door and sit down stand up are two of radiohead's best tracks, period. myxamatosis, we suck young blood and where i end and you begin are underrated too
>>64639546
that's because no surprises was generic pop garbage.
Sit down Stand up anyone?
>>64639604
Doesnt explain why so many fans like it
>>64639602
Agreed on We Suck Young Blood. That song really gets to me, how slow it is, and how much if a cathartic release that piano bit in the middle is. It's fantastic because of how the reserved it is.
>>64639392
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flCKIvukz68
My favourite track off In Rainbows and one of my favourite Radiohead tracks period. Gives me the chills every time I listen to it.
>>64639604
It really wasn't and even if you're baiting you've still severely fucking triggered me because you will never write a song like that in your pathetic fucking life. It is truly one of the most breathtaking moments of musical history
>>64639626
Mentioned in another thread anon , build up is great but those lasers sounds kind of dated
>>64639659
come on dude no surprises is one of the weakest tracks on ok computer. it doesn't evolve or grow like climbing up the walls, let down, paranoid, lucky, etc. the simplistic melody just isn't good enough to carry the song.
>>64639659
Calm down anon , Let Down off of the same album was better
Polyethylene is fucking amazing.
It's pretty difficult to discuss underrated Radiohead songs, given how acclaimed they are. I've pretty much seen every single song on all of their albums receive praise by plenty of people, and a lot of their B-sides are well known among the fanbase for being of excellent quality. A song I think is truly underrated is probably You from Pablo Honey and Bishop's Robes, which is a B-side. Both are totally great tunes.
>>64639659
it was literally fake plastic trees tier. Thom Yorke wishes he never wrote it and is embarressed.
>>64639392
Sit Down. Stand Up. (Snakes and Ladders) is pretty good
>>64639495
fuck off retarded 12 year old nigger
Anyone have a Daydreaming mega?
>>64639667
but
>THE RAINDROPS
>>64639708
Let down was even worse. The two weakest tracks off that album.
>>64639692
A melody being poppy or simplistic is not a bad thing whatsoever, and No Surprises is catchy as fuck. Definitely not the best song on the album but it's certainly not the worst, either.
>>64639756
okay now THIS has gone too fucking far. let down is GOAT
>that chorus
>that ending 20 seconds of electroronic bleeps that soundsl ike you're rising to heaven
>>64639626
Ye boi
>>64639756
>He thinks Let Down is the worst OK Computer song
Let Down is the best song Radiohead have ever recorded, easily, never mind OK Computer.
>>64639755
Still one of the better ones off HTTT , I did say the build up was good
>>64639756
Oh come on , they rarely got that heart wrenching ever again , except maybe on In Rainbows
In Limbo is my absolute favorite part of Kid A and one of my favorite RH songs in general. Wish they'd play it live more often. Fingers crossed it pops up at one of the shows I'm going to but I doubt it
Feral is good on record, but it was absolutely bone moving live. Surround sound with decent bass might be imperative to help people get into that one, but I love it
Also Black Star, Faust ARP, Jigsaw, and Scatterbrain. Love those songs.
>>64639692
It's simplistic for a reason that suits the point of the song, and it's excellent for it
>>64639424
>what army
I Will and Scatterbrain.
I Will because the context of it is fucking dark as shit, and I love minimalistic Radiohead.
SCATTERBRAIN
i wish i understood amnesiac. it's (almost) my least favorite album :(
Gagging order, supercollider, fog, cuttooth, talk show host.
>>64640151
What , you mean Pablo Honey and The King of Limbs might be above it
>>64640070
Right on , people in this thread need to listen to Amnesia again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6nmq_XK9a4
>>64640197
yeah. i really like tkol and pablo is...decent but i just cant get into amnesiac
Friendly reminder that Life in a Glasshouse is their best song.
>>64639392
the trickster - v. matt bellamy vibe.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d578-Zt6pMI
Hope this track sees the light of day soon.
Dollars and cents
>>64639484
Tru. Also I will say nude and kid a title track, along with kid a morning bell
>>64639626
WAAAAAAAAAAAAALK INTO THE JAWS OF HEEEE-EEEEEEL
Prove yourself
this songs makes me weep
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ88rxLRBeA
>>64639484
let down is probably my favorite track off the album
Electioneering is a good song - it doesn't fit in with the rest of the album, but I don't think it gets the attention it deserves
Nude is GOAT
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmfHHLfbjNQ

If you like Radiohead check this shit out:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF7lvkV_6S8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XaA3ObNcHI
And also Talk Talk's last two albums
Good Morning Mr. Magpie
Morning Bell Kid A version is one of my favorite tracks by them but I think sometimes it gets overshadowed by Idioteque.
>you were alive for Radiohead
>your kids will tell you how lucky you were
>all you do is shitpost
I am citizen insane and where bluebirds fly were both side A material.
Why does discussion of this band make me cringe so much? Even if i meet someone irl who likes the band i just say "yeah they're good" and avoid talking about it even though they're easily my favorite band.
>>64642769
100% this. if you say anything else you look like a fucking neckbeard.
Why didnt they use Radiohead's James Bond song ?
I think it's so much better then 'the writings on the wall' by a mile
>>64642855
Teenage girls like Sam Smith more than some whiny old dude who looks like a homeless person who's in a band that that one weird kid in your class is obsessed with.
>>64642483
Haha
Amnesiac b-sides man
Kid A the song
>>64642769
Because we're a generation incapable of encountering the world without irony, and Radiohead are unironically inspiring
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6nmq_XK9a4
(best b-side in their catalog)
>>64642769
This happens with anything that's both popular and genuinely good. That combo attracts all types and some notably rabid and cringeworthy fans/discussion.
spectre & planet telex are underrated af
>>64643133
The butcher and supercollider should have been saved up for this new album.
>>64643133
>bleep bloop ticka tacka
>best
Die please.

The Basement version of Separator is heavenly.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0Wu45h1HdY
i think this is a nice song
also it seems like muse based the sound of their entire first record on this song

>>64639484
Climbing Up The Walls by far. I'll never get why people have such a colossal boner for Let Down.
>>64639626
raindrops :^)
Harry Patch (In Memory Of) is perfect
>>64639561
My negro
>>64641873
Fuck, I remember I was visiting England when that guy died and they released that track a couple days after
>>64643886
Because "Whaaa muh depreshun ;)"
"Fog" is such a beautiful song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VG8519yWOtM
Also, reminder that Radiohead made a somewhat shoegaze song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UtJQWErTgw
>>64644504
You beat me to Fog. It's crazy good, all versions of it.
>DOLLARS AND CENTS
>>64641945
Electioneering is my shit; sharp-sounding guitar and violent as fuck.
The only song i can't stand on OC it's "Exit Music (For a Film)", i cous hear it by itself, but it always kills my vibe for a moment on that album.
>inb4 by the end of the song it's GOAT
go slowly is super underrated

>>64640502
WE CAN WIPE YOU OUUUUUTTT ANYTIME
>>64642578
Morning Bell is one of their best songs. I think it is has a subtlety that a lot of people miss or don't get.
A friend of mine loves Hunting Bears and I genuinely do not get what he is seeing in it, but that would probably be his pick
>>64648049
I like it too
Go To Sleep Live
That fucking guitar solo lmao
>>64639713
Polyethylene is brilliant, it's so explosive and the choppy time signatures are good fun.
I second people who said Life In A Glasshouse too, I've never liked jazz and that song hit me like a brick shithouse when I first listened to it properly.
>tfw they picked the shit James Bond song over based Radiohead's version that could of been a classic if they took the risk
>>64640170
second for fog and cuttooth
>>64639424
amnesiac b sides
cut tooth, worry wort, and especially fog
worrywort, bangers and mash, lull

Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses - Thom Yorke
Technically not radiohead but thm, still a great song
>>64639450
not as overlooked as this post
>>64639845
>Jigsaw
>underrated
>>64639484
Subterranean is god-tier.
>no one posted Big Boots
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9vAME_4Ws8
>no one posted Identikit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sRWQ5BhYcE
Adore these two tracks. Hope for some kind of studio release in the future.
>>64650646
Holy shit, when Identikit switches at 1:40
>fucking eargasmmm
This has to be on LP9
>>64650646
Big Boots is a song they literally wrote as a james bond theme
spectre's fine but Big Boots is their true Bond theme and it fucking rules oh my god I love that song so much
i know nude isn't underrated, but this live version is prefect
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxvsq-IluaA
>>64641873
>>64643923
I mocked this up since it didn't have a cover
needs some work, don't know why I put a full stop there
Amazing Sounds of Orgy
Black Star
Backdrifts
Down Is the New Up
Last Flowers
Putting Ketchup In the Fridge
>>64639604
>generic pop garbage
poppy maybe, but please show me pop songs you think are on the same level
must be a lot if it's generic
>>64639392
this is radiohead's best song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6Bzj3I-2Nk
>>64642923
This. It's James Bond, a huge brand, of course the music that appeals the mass better will be used.
>>64639392
Nude.. when I listen to In Rainbows and Bodysnatchers finishes off and it all goes quiet and he sings 'don't get any big ideas' I choke up, every time
