One song that is underrated is All I Need. Great tune. Over two years later though, I still think A Moon Shaped Pool is the best of their later albums - for me that is undoubtedly their best since Kid A. Not sure if that's controversial but I'm speaking from the perspective of a more casual fan. It doesn't have a song the quality of Reckoner but each song is at least an 8/9 out of 10. In fact, it's probably my third favourite Radiohead album. To these ears, it's their most beautiful record. For what it's worth, devoted Radiohead fans often consider All I Need to be their best-ever track. I completely agree on A Moon-Shaped Pool, absolutely stunning album - to still be coming out with material like that twenty years after you broke out in quality with no bad albums in between is almost unrivalled. Yeah, it's just a tune I've never seen talked about. Along with Reckoner, it was the one that struck me most on that album.

With each passing year I’m convinced Weird Fishes is the best song on In Rainbows. That percussion is insane. Always been a huge Reckoner and Videotape guy. Really every track is stellar. TKOL felt like a letdown because IR was just so Fucking good.

soundcloud.com/snavaneeth78/big-ideas?in=snavaneeth78/sets/ok-computer-oknotok-1997-2017-cassetteIncase anybody was looking for that old version of Nude It's funny. I remember being a snot nosed 14 year old Oasis fanboy on OasisInet waging war with posters who championed In Rainbows as the best release at the time. I thought it was depressing drivel and DOYS was obviously the best new album at the time. Hilarious to think back on that now. Last Flowers on it's own is better than any post 2000 Oasis release Well technically In Rainbows came out a year before DOYS but I get your point. In 2008, Oasis trailed so many bands. Radiohead and Coldplay smashed them with their albums that year. I know it was released a year beforehand. That was the album DOYS was being compared to on that forum at the time. It's not the sort of album you put down and forget about after a few listens, so I can now understand why many other members were so obsessed with it. Maybe a few of them were Radiohead fanboys, I dunno, but looking back now I can't find anything else in that era, within that broad genre that compares. That Coldplay album though? Nope not having that at all I'm afraid. I can't bear any of it even the single. I'd even take DOYS' second half over that polished turd any day.

So now that I listened all of the albums (except for Pablo Honey) and Radiohead has become one of my favourite bands ever,I could tell the worst song of them is Feral. What a fucking piece of garbage mate. Terrible song. Which song would you say is the worst by them? Excluding Pablo Honey of course.

What a fucking piece of garbage mate. Terrible song. Which song would you say is the worst by them? Excluding Pablo Honey of course. Little by Little for me. I like Feral, and I think all the other songs on The King of Limbs suit their twitchy production, but Little By Little was much more at home being a groovy rocker. Worst off each album? PABLO HONEY: Eh, pick one. THE BENDS: Sulk OK COMPUTER: Electioneering KID A: In Limbo AMNESIAC: Pulk / Pull Revolving Doors HAIL TO THE THIEF: The Gloaming IN RAINBOWS: Bodysnatchers (come at me) THE KING OF LIMBS: Little by Little A MOON-SHAPED POOL: Desert Island Disk

So here's a New Year's resolution I can actually stick to. I'm going to make 2019 the year I (finally) dig into this band (I know, I know ). So I'm planning on grabbing a few of their discs on my next record shop run. To the Radiohead aficionados on this forum, I should probably start with the first three albums, yeah?

I’d start with The Bends, Ok Computer and Kid A. It’s assumed you are well aware of Creep off Pablo Honey. Great tune. Ok album. Blow Out, I Can’t, Thinking About You, and You are good tunes as well.

I tried that out last year. I still don't get all the hype. Different strokes as they say. I hope you find them worth the inspection.

I think this would be a pretty good order to go in: 1. The Bends 2. OK Computer 3. In Rainbows 4. A Moon-Shaped Pool 5. Kid A 6. Amnesiac 7. The King of Limbs (plus From the Basement) 8. Hail to the Thief

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I really dig what I have heard so far off The Bends and I know many people consider OK Computer to be one of the greatest rock records of all-time, so those two are definitely on my list.
