I stick all of their albums in one player and shuffle them. Best way as it takes away any bias.

f***ing incredible band each and everyone of them.

One of my favourite performances is the live version of Paranoid Android on Later with Jools Holland.

The film is genius too.

Great band, but not one I listen to all that often.

Apparently, aye. Just had a quick Google and it seems like they're fannying about with it and being difficult, which is most unlike them of course.

Still love 'em though.

...Consider that In Rainbows was meant to complement OK Computer, musically, lyrically, and in structure. We found that the two albums can be knit together beautifully. By combining the tracks to form one playlist, 01 and 10, we have a remarkable listening experience. The transitions between the songs are astounding, and it appears that this was done purposefully.

The lyrics also seem to complement each other. There appears to be a concept flowing through the 01 and 10 playlist. Ideas in one song is picked up by the next, such as “Pull me out of the aircrash,” and “When I’m at the pearly gates, this will be my videotape.” ...

That's exactly what I posted on how I listen to them.

It completely blows away the myth that they're worse than the 90s.

Best band bar none IMHO.

Well they're my favourite band anyway, although it can't be denied that they're fairly self-indulgent. Still, they could have sat on their laurels and made 10 more OK Computers and probably had an easier life and made even more money.

Kid A and In Rainbows are excellent. I liked Amnesiac and HTTT when they came out, but haven't listened to either in a while. That Jaydiohead stuff just re-affirmed my love for them tbh, one of the first bands to get me into some decent music when I was younger.

OK Computer amazed me when I first listened to it as a 15 year old, and it still does now.

Almost as crap as Coldplay.

Nah, nothing wrong with a bit of Coldplay every now and again.

I'm not a Radiohead fanboy, but they're infinitely better than Coldplay, who grew old on me after about 3 songs. My biggest hatred is people calling Elbow a Coldplay rip off. Like f***, have you actually listened to both!? Twats.

Fugazi · « **Reply #64 on:** Tuesday 4 January 2011, 06:35:28 PM »

Elbow are so f***ing superior to Coldplay.

I hate that song by Elbow, can't think of the name. Something about "one day like this a year" boils my p*ss every time I hear it.

It's a very bland song for them. Their first album's one of my favourite albums.

wormy · « **Reply #68 on:** Tuesday 4 January 2011, 10:27:03 PM »

One Day Like This. Not one of their best imo. Despite Seldom Seen Kid being their most acclaimed album, best album for me is easily Asleep In The Back. Seldom Seen Kid is still an awesome album overall though.

Needn't have bothered with my reply.

The Cambridge gig I went to back in '08 closed with Newborn. f***ing beautiful. I missed my train and spent another 30 quid on a hostel for the night just to hear it. And it was worth every penny.

I quite like 'One Day Like This'

wormy · « **Reply #71 on:** Tuesday 4 January 2011, 10:33:01 PM »

I did. I think the thing that done it for me was it got used for so many adverts, and so many soppy awards shows. Started doing my nut in.

Andy · « **Reply #72 on:** Tuesday 4 January 2011, 10:34:45 PM »

It's very good live when they play it with an orchestra tbh.

wormy · « **Reply #73 on:** Tuesday 4 January 2011, 10:37:28 PM »

Oh yeah. I wish I would've won the chance to see them play for BBC with the full live orchestra. That would've been immense.

Mate was banging on about this a while ago, sounds like bullshit tbh.
