I think Radiohead should make Amnesiac 2: The Return of Glasshouses, Crushd Tin Cans, and Revolving Doors! :yay

Third worst Radiohead album after Pablo and TKoL imo.

And fuck Morning Bell 3. I never cared for either version of that song.

Haha, same here. It's kinda lame when a band puts a song on album that's just an alternate remix of an older song. Even worse when the new remix sucks!

I dunno, just never thought the Bends worked well as an album. The individual songs are good though.

It's decent, but not nearly as good as Amnesiac.

We may not be able to agree on Radiohead's worst, but can we at least agree on the best? OK Computer all the way. :D

My verdict:
OK Computer would be better if most of the songs weren't a minute way too long. A lot of them just churn on, repeating the same quirky musical gimmicks, until they're over. The album's got some really good songs, but listening to it overall can be a real chore.

The Bends is way more pleasant and listenable. Although it kind of drags on in the middle with songs like Iron Lung and Bulletproof, which are almost repeats of the songs before and don't really add anything new. By the time they roll around I'm checking my watch for Black Star.

Ruling in favor of The Bends. OK Computer is ordered to pay $100 in damages and emotional distress. kjrain, looks like you have to foot the bill ;)
