Turrican, are you an In Rainbows fan?

i love that album and think it's the last great Radiohead album. also haven't bothered too much with the two newer ones. i will get to know the new one before the end of the year however. just waiting for the seasons to change to start listening to it.

Yeah, I think it's a great record! I listened to it a hell of a lot when it first came out and it's still one of the Radiohead albums I reach for whenever I'm in the mood to listen to 'em. I voted for it in the "Acclaimed Music Top 30 Albums from 2007 poll", too.

Thanks for running these polls Bee OK, it's been fun!
I rarely listen to Kid A but today I'll give it a spin

Good one, closer than I thought it would be.

I have to admit I don't quite get Disintegration Loops. I understand the concept and like the music but it's too self-indulgent for me. I think other Basinski work is better and there are other ambieny artists like Helge Sten (Deathprod, Supersilent) that were making similar things in the 00s but better imho.

No idea how it came to be THE ambient album of the 00s. The 9/11 relation is purely coincidental but I guess people thought it was a sign of god or something.

Listened to all of Kid A yesterday, it is truly a beast of an album - and even though I listen more to In Rainbows, Kid A is probably the better record. So of its own, it's like a parallel universe or something, just too impressive.
But also depressing.
