Could we get some love for the deepest, most depressing Radiohead album?
Kid A = depression
Amnesiac = anxiety
but yeah its their best album
>>64817787
Pyramid song is so beautifully depressing, since I don't believe I'll ever feel that peaceful.
My fave of theirs
B+
>>64817787
Currently listening to it for the first time, and I think I've heard You and Whose Army? before. maybe it was it in a movie?
Help me out,/mu/
>>64817787

>>64817860
Incendies
>>64817811

>>64817787
This Love lies deep inside, brotha..
>>64817811
You know what, you're right.
I know I might be out of plaace, but does anyone else find The Bends to be the most depressing? personally I guess it just happoends to be relatable to shitty things going on.
>>64817787
Objectively
Pyramid Song = Knives Out > Packt Like Sardines > You and Whose Army? > Like Spinning Plates > Glasshouse > I Might Be Wrong > Dollars & Cents > Hunting Bears > Pulk/Pull > Morning Bell
>>64817927
Knives Out is one of the weakest tracks m8
Morning Bell, Life in a Glasshouse, You And Whose Army are all better.
Like Spinning Plates > rest of Amnesiac
>>64818048

>>64818066
well, this kind of says something
everyone's least favorite tracks are someone else's favorite
unlike ok computer/kid a, where everyone hates a few tracks
amnesiac confirmed as biggest grower album of all time
>>64817811
Kid a has noting to do with depression. It's a
fantods at worst.
>>64818048
Im not much of a single guy but Pyramid Song may be my number 1 single of all time
>>64818142
Yeah, Amnesiac is really varied. I don't think anyone really agrees which is 'best', it's an album that tries a lot of different sounds and certain stuff sticks better than others for people. Every track is polarizing.
OBJECTIVE RATINGS COMING THROUGH
Pulk/Pull = Pyramid Song > You and Whose Army? > Sardines > Morning Bell > Life in a Glasshouse > Spinning Plates > Knives Out > I Might Be Wrong > Hunting Bears > Dollars and Cents
Life in a Glasshouse is the most depressing shit I've ever heard, fav closer
>>64817934
That's it, thanks
Great movie too.
When I heard "Life in a Glasshouse" for the first time years ago, I wasn't a huge Radiohead fan. I had listened to OK Computer and Creep and that was it. But when Glasshouse started playing, with that atmospheric synth intro, that beautiful jazz band, and Thom Yorke's wonderful voice, I instantly fell in love. I couldn't believe this was the same band that had made Creep.
And now Life in a Glasshouse is one of my favorite songs of all time, and Radiohead one of my favorite bands, and Amnesiac one of my favorite albums.
anyone still here
Like Spinnig Plates is one of most mesmerizing songs i ever heard
Anyone else thinks that is a shame that cut of the first 30 secs in Life In A Glasshouse?
>>64817927
Life In A Glasshouse
Like Spinning Plates
Pyramid Song
>>64817811
nailed it
>>64819727
Fucking most underrated song on the album easily
>And THIS JUST FEELS LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKE
>>64819883
and specificly is the studio version underrated
>SPINNIIIIIIIIIIIING PLAAAAAAAAAAAAATEES
Amnesiac gets plenty of love these days, what really needs appreciation is dollars & cents. it's like the amnesiac of amnesiac.
>>64819971
dollars & cents has something... that magic in the bass!
>>64817787
Im really in love with the haunting art and thought behind the whole album, it manages to be unsettling and mesmerising at the same time
>>64819727
I remember seeing cirque du solie a few years after hearing this albums and seeing spinning plates live (the act not the song) but feeling like the anxiety of the song finally clicked for me. It's so fucking good
AFTER YEARS WAITING
>>64817811
You have that backwards, friend.
You guys don't think that that era in the is the
summit point in the Radiohead's career? because they wrote 30 songs in that sessions and all of them are pretty damn good.
Knives out is a great song
also Cuttooth is one of Radiohead's best songs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVNgv-VVNlo
why is this so good bros
>>64820078
And also really really like that b-side
The Amazing Sounds of Orgy!!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5LT9X9F-YM
>>64820153
This was the opus magnum of Radiohead as a whole, I can agree with you there
>>64820153
It definitely is. AMSP era is pretty great so far but it's not as good as the Kid A era and there are 1/3 as many songs.

>CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM CHUM
this is better desu
>>64817811
Ayy I always thought about it the same way
>>64817811
I remember reading someone say that they're like the difference between being in a forest fire (Amnesiac) and watching a forest fire happen (Kid A). Can't remember where I saw that, but I like it.
>>64817927
Life in a Glasshouse
I Might Be Wrong
Knives Out
>best
Pulk Pull
Like Spinning Plates
Pyramid Song
Life in a Glass House
I just cant get into Whose Army, how did you guys do it
>>64820080
NOOOTHING CAAAAME
Fucking great. Currently my favorite Radiohead album.
>>64821357
I believe it was Thom and it was a city.
Kid A - watching a city burn from a great distance
Amnesiac - in the fire
>>64822189
Cool, thanks for clarifying, anon.
>>64823044
>When asked what Amnesiac will sound like in a recent interview, Thom replied, "If you look at the artwork for Kid A...well, that's like looking at the fire from afar. Amnesiac is the sound of what it feels like to be standing IN the fire."
I guess he didn't mention a city, but I interpreted the artwork that way.
the amazing sounds of orgy is one of my favourite Radiohead songs even though its only on the b sides. Definitely one of my favourite albums by Radiohead.
>>64819856
agreed if you switch packt for pyramid song
Honestly, I think Amnesiac's B-sides are better than the album and also the best collection of songs the band has ever put out
>>64818638
Nice taste desu
>>64818186
Nah it totally does. I was deeply, deeply, clinically, and existentially depressed for years, and this album helped me cope on such a deep level because of how well it encapsulated the feeling of going through countless iterations of the same numb, pointless, day over and over ad nauseum.
>>64817787
Wow, no mentions of "Dollars and Cents?"
Best post "Idioteque" Radiohead song. This is one hell of a cringy thread. Oh well, nu-males will never understand music.
>>64825503
Why don't you quieeeeeeet down
>>64825544
The outro though
>>64817927
pyramid song
pulk/pull revolving doors
like spinning plates
>>64817927
Dollars and cents
Pyramid song
I might be wrong
>>64817787
Gotta be my favourite Radiohead album tied with Kid A
>>64817787
2bh lads I think Amnesiac is my number one Radiohead album.
>>64817811
That's backwards you mong. Songs like Idoteque and The National Anthem are literally about anxiety, while Amnesiac is a far more defeatist and overall depressing album.
