> filters youThis will forever be the unsung hero of the discography. The second half of this album is some of the best Radiohead I've ever heard.

>>129842244>>129842349I love TKOL. If I was honest with myself I’d rank it in my top 3 RH albums with Kid A and OKC, but I’ve got Amnesiac there instead. It flows so well, better than any of their other albums besides maybe Kid A. As good as AMSP is, TKOL would’ve been the perfect final album for Radiohead to exit with. Plus the tour they did with that album was focused more on some of their less-known tracks and I appreciated that.

>>129842244Separator - The In Rainbows sound but done even better. Unlike Weird Fishes which says "escape is worth it even if you get eaten alive", this song seems to be going for a happy ending where "freeing yourself is a new beginning".Lotus Flower - Their best single and one of Yorke's best vocal performances. I like the cheeky lyrics at the beginning about being an mp3 in your pocket instead of a cd/vinyl. I like how the lyrics work as a call to action for people to remix or reinterpret the songs how they see fit. Besides the fourth wall stuff, the lyrics are moody without being mopey. It seems to be a song in reverence of depression, acknowledging that it is temporary and can be overcome but also that it is what drives their career. This is Thom praising his muse when he talks about "an empty space inside my heart (depression) where the weeds take root (inspiration for the album) so now I set you free (letting it out, letting it go, perhaps saving the listeners from going through similar bad thoughts). I love the explorative energy of the album mixed with the theme of self-actualization in "all I want is a moon upon a stick (not possible), just to see what if (but why not try) just to see what is (trying the impossible will show you something new)Bloom - You would think this would be the pleb filter but now that the dust has settled I guess it's the most popular track. This is their best intro on any of their albums. I think Radiohead lyrics are often very dry and funny but I don't see people talk about that much so maybe I interpret things wrong. I think TKoL is their funniest album. I like that the first lines on the album are "open your mouth up wide (literally what he has to do to wail out that line) the universal sigh (everyone turns on the new Radiohead album to find them once again doing weird shit despite their previous two albums indicating they were still a rock band).Give Up the GhostMorning Mr. Magpie - also funnyCodexFeralLittle By Little

>>129843102Nah you're just a pleb.
As a big Radiohead fan, I've still never listened to this album. Don't even know why.
>>129843536Have you at least heard Lotus Flower?
>>129843536>Don't even know whyCause it sucks
>>129843957No. Just looked at the tracklist. Don't recognize any song titles and I've never heard any of them.
>>129842244I mean it ain't my favorite Radiohead record but I return to it more than Pablo Honey (also deeply underrated, but understandably so), The Bends, OK Computer (kinda boring full listen), Kid A (flawless), Hail to the Thief, and A Moon Shaped Pool (wayyyYYYY overrated). Will defends this album any day of the week!
>>129845510will you also defend it on shabbat?
>>129845536Don't know or care about religious holidays. I like music.
>>129842244Are you me? I love the last three tracks. Magical keyboards and weirdy sounds. I was hyped for AMSP but I could never get into it.
>>129844076>>129843536> Big Radiohead fan> Hasn't heard TKoLPick one, senpai.
>>129845510Completely agree with AMSP. I seriously believe that everyone gave that record praise solely because Radiohead was back. The hype of them returning outweighed the actual album. I can't be convinced otherwise.
>>129845781The last tracks are incredible. Seriously.
>>129842244>The king of blown limbsYeah I know they are proud of blowing up Palestinians
>>129846557Kek>>129846218Yeah, each track ramps up the emotion. For me it might help that I got into this album when I was splitting up with my ex-bird and then getting hold of my future wife. Rebirth kind of stuff.
>>129843536>big Radiohead fan>nah, missed that Listen. You must have a spare hour. Div.

Not a big fan of the back half of this album but I don't hate it. Don't like Separator. I think Morning Mr. Magpie is one of their best songs, it sounded fucking great at the shows I caught on the 2012 tour, wish they'd have played it on the last tour/hope they do if they go through with the 2027 american tour
It was my first Radiohead album and I liked it well enough. I do wish in retrospect that they had waited to at least put Supercollider and Staircase on it.
>>129845781>>129846214I would think that if anyone would understand the appeal of AMSP, it's fans of TKOL. That album takes the looping and sampling techniques of that album and crafts delicately textured soundscapes around them. Very spectral, intimate arrangements that, to me, absolutely sound like a direct progression from TKOL more than anything else.Take the song Present Tense, for example. It spends its time setting up its mood with the shuffling rhythms and looped vocals and all that, but when it gets into that rhythm it has moments like at 1:45 where the guitars cut through the mix like they're parting the Red Sea, or how the drum groove slowly slips into the arrangements at around the 2:20 mark. The attention to detail is immaculate on this record, and other songs like Daydreaming, The Numbers, Desert Island Disk, and Burn The Witch show this off in equally full force. You either get it or you don't, but in light of songs like Bloom, Feral, Give Up The Ghost and Separator, I would think it's the TKOL fans that would get it sooner than anyone else. It's basically a direct evolution.
>>129848092Yeah I fucking hated it though. Sorry.
>>129844076Lotus Flower is the single and has a music video.There's also kind of a music video for Bloom because a slightly reworked version was used for a documentary.
>>129846557Kek makes me want to listen to it even more, I’m deploying back to Lebanon soon and I’ll put it on loudspeakers to bait Hezbatroons
