Nah Planet Telex is the second worst track (besides Nice Meme)
Dream House is one of the best openers ever
>>63225767
That's not High & Dry
>>63225808
High & Dry is just a better version of Nice Dream
>>63225821
That's ironic because Nice Dream is actually a good song. High & Dry is so shit even Thom Yorke himself hated it
>>63225828
Thom Yorke has shit taste in his own music. He ends up hating things he's released just because they get popular. He'll probably in another year say that Kid A was the worst record they've done or some other bullshit like that.
>>63225781
true
>>63225806
lel
>>63225828
The melody of the verses on High and Dry is lovely. Nice Dream's vocal melody just follows the chord progression lazily and might as well not be there
>>63225848
If it helps you sleep at night then ok
Really though Karma Police and Paranoid Android are popular as shit and he's got nothing against them. Same thing with Just. It's only the pre-OKC stuff like Creep and High & Dry that he hates, and both are shitty songs so that's reasonable.
>>63225876
was that proto-metal?

>>63225972
>>63226000
Oh, hey there you Tumblrites
>>63226012
>but they do
They do.
>>63226024
>anyone that doesn't have the musical tastes of a 16 year old hipster is a tumblrite
>>63226026
Somehow baby, I never thought that we do to...
>>63225863
I think the opening to the 2nd side is better desu
>>63226055
No, anyone that has the musical taste of a 16 year old is a Tumblrite.
No one above legal age likes the xx or Coldplay, right?
Undisputed

>>63225876
[spoiler]Honestly the only song on the album I really like.[/spoiler]
>>63226133
embarassing
>>63226133
Only four songs on the album, you still like 25% of it
>>63226108
Hated this when it first came out, now I can't listen to that trash that preceded it
>>63225857
that last part goddamn
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0QchNGkU3o
almost any opener by animal collective really
absolutely goat
>>63226290
BONEFISH
How to blast open the doors of an album: the song.
>>63225872
The melody is shit, it's whiny as fuck and it's the go to song for people who don't like Radiohead to prove they suck
>>63226336
JGJFJDSHEJDJTKFJEHEHEHRBFJRYSHSGWHJDRJES
>>63226290
>>63226336
They never fail to deliver a spectacular opener, but Spirit They've Vanished takes the cake for me.
>>63225938
>>63226290
>>63225781
yup
also this, the whole album is pretty good actually
>>63225781
Seriously. Almost fucking 3 years later it still chokes me up
>>63225938
agreed
posting the given.
I liked this one
>>63228077
Dark Fantasy is a great opener.
>>63228291
The only good song tho
>>63226341
Great pic. Top 3 album of mine. This here giraffe is literally the only song I skip (sometimes)
whole albums a 10/10 too
>>63227392
you're cool
>>63226318
Agreed.
>I'M NOT EASILY CONFUUUUSED
>>63228077
It really wasn't a bad album. People can say what they want about him as a person, but his music has always been good
>>63226000
This album is awful, and you shoul feel bad for liking it. It's actually very disgusting damn, it makes me feel sick. It's quite perverted, I hate this so fucking much, I can't believe someone likes this shit...
>>63225781
>>63226249
true
>>63225905
Yeah for sure
>>63229413
Is this a meme or do you just suffer from crippling autism?
THE WHOLE PLACE IS DARK
>>63226387
Agreed. My jaw hit the floor the first time I heard it.
>>63229413
>>63226024
It's fucking Intro
>>63225740
Big Radiohead fan, but no.
>>63225762
Pretty great opener, but not his best.
>>63228372
>>63228375
>>63226290
>>63226491
>>63225842
>>63225876
Yes.
>>63226000
Fuck the hate, I love this album and I love the opener. Not a 10/10 but still great
>>63226234
Love this album, but the opener is pretty forgettable once you listen to the whole album. Good single but is really shadowed by everything else.
>>63228077
Great song but I hate the fucking mix of the whole album.
10/10 first four tracks actually
10/10 opener, 10/10 closer
Where the streets have no name is one of the greatest openers of all time
>>63230004
>IT'S A TOWN FULL OF LOSERS
>I'M PULLING OUT OF HERE TO WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN
Chills every time.
>>63225740
Patrician level opener
>>63228335
Yeah, it's the worst song on the album by a mile.
Sunday Morning... So simple yet so beautiful
>>63229974
10/10 everything in between
Dat harmonica
>>63230144
Wrong album
>>63230338

EDM Edition
[crab vs. stingray video]
>>63226290
IF I COULD JUST LEAVE MY BODY FOR THE NIGHT
10/10 moment right there.
>>63227819
The only good song on an album you mean
a few other stones albums too now that i think of it
tbqh
>>63225767
Add Mingus Ah Um to that too. Both of these have really great hot bluesy intros.
>>63229632
Fuck yes, that jam at the end...
>>63230251
Start to finish this album is a roller coaster
>>63229632
My nigga
I'll streak his blood across my beaaaak
>>63225938
AND HE THAID
>>63230766
kek those crabs got fucked up.
>tfw literally everything that isn't the opener is 2/10 at best
Hail to the Thief has a much better opener IMO
>>63231080
FLEX
>>63225740
>>63225905
The song is jazz influenced instead of blues so technically it isn't proto-metal, some of the screeching sounds similar to pinch harmonics on guitars are actually just saxophones, but its fucking heavy as shit.
>>63226491
do-do-do AH!
>>63228309
It's not even the best song on the album
>come together
>I think I'm in love
>broken heart
>electricity
not enough B&C love on /mu/
>>63225781
agree
>>63226162
exactly the same on BN
>>63228373
>>63229441
>>63225781
>>63225876
yes
>>63228372
Pretty much every death grips opener desu
>>63226101

debate me
>>63225781

>>63227392
Sink or swim is better imo
>>63232283
chills every time mang. shame they suck now tho
>>63225808
>>63225828
High and Dry is such a cozy song, the big booming drums are so good.
I think once I heard it in 50/50 I got a new outlook on it.
It's a good song, just not definitive radiohead.
>>63225857
POWER OF THE PIGGY'S HEAD
POWER OF THE PIGGY'S HEEEAAAHHED
>>63237566
All the Stones albums from this period
>>63225740
Best opening to a metal album I've heard.
>>63225767
I want to punch you in the throat.
Whole lotta love
>>63229974
This album holds me like no other.>>63230692
>>63230692
This one surprised me, had to go listen to it again. Actually an amazing opener.
What the fuck you guys? Surprised no one has mentioned this album
>>63230004
also Achtung Baby
>>63229255
DIAL 999
>>63238677
I was just listening to this, true.
>>63225767
Dude I fucking agree. Planet Telex isn't bad, but If I were someone who skipped tracks, that'd be one of them.
No Kid A? Seriously niggas?
>those opening keys
>>63225740
>>63238797
Literally exact same reaction senpai
Also Sgt. Pepper, Revolver, Rubber Soul, and Abbey Road
RIP Mr. Emerson
>>63225876
I don't know what I like so much about this album, but I especially love "I Talk to the Wind". I was listening to it the first time I dropped acid, and I remember thinking, "what balls these guys have to fit two flute solos into a song".
>>63228375
Hello /r/music
11/10
>>63230251
Horn intro?
>>63225781
its the only good song on there
>>63232446
I don't have the emotional stability to listen to this album straight through
>>63238841
Do you like Huey Lewis & the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but whenSportscame out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared toElvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.
If you disagree, you're wrong
