I used to love Radiohead...now I find them to be pretentious and boring for the most part (since the first SJP account I have been fully converted into a metalhead btw), but they do have some songs I like a lot, like I will always love "High & Dry", which was the first song I ever learned to play on guitar and is just an awesome song all around.

I hate "High and Dry". It's too... mediocre. Radiohead has done so much better than that.

After many listens, I've decided In Rainbows is second on my list for the year, only after Neon Bible.

They're like Radiohead.
They change a lot from album to album... Listen to The Bends and move on from there.

and they are good.

I just bought this a few weeks ago. I'm glad they didn't continue with "Hail to the thief". This sounds more like "KID A" and Amniesac". It's pretty good. "House of cards" is awesome.

I missed them this year... I also missed R.E.M., The National and Modest Mouse ALL IN ONE NIGHT IN ONE PLACE... and I missed my yearly Flaming Lips concert, which I've been doing since 2003...

Sigh.

Anyway, "In Rainbows" is great. My favorite album is still "The Bends", and I actually like "High and Dry", even though it sounds like something common you'd hear on "Scrubs". Like... "How to Save a Life", or something. Kinda schmaltzy. Then again, "Fake Plastic Trees" is my favorite Radiohead song... but that's not schmaltz. It's absolute poetry.

My favorite thing about Radiohead is that most of their songs build up to a climactic moment. And if you were to start playing the song at that climactic moment, it would seems like complete chaos. In "Fake Plastic Trees", it's when the drumming comes in, right before the line "She looks like the real thing, she tastes like the real thing...", which is why I think I love the line so much.

As for In Rainbows, "15 Step" has to be one of my top five, if not three, Radiohead songs.

I saw them last night... incredible.

The played all of In Rainbows. It's amazing that, ten years after releasing what's considered their greatest work, they release something that's arguably just as good.

I really want them to come back in a year, at least.

Kid A is better than Amnesiac though. But even Amnesiac is really, really great.
