amazing band...tough to rank

1.) OK Computer
2.) In Rainbows
3.) The Bends
4.) Hail To The Thief
5.) Kid A
6.) The King of Limbs
7.) Amnesiac
8.) Pablo Honey

such a small margin between each...love every one of their albums...except some of PH.
thought KOL was excellent

    as a body of work radioheads is quite stellar and i am loathe to rank it.. i like pablo well enough but i dont see it as very representative of radiohead. its a product of its time and a bit messy. imo.

    yeah, you're right. when you listen to it, it doesn't really sound like Radiohead. it's more like the-project-before-radiohead's demos. But I still dig it.

    It's a shame to see Amnesiac so low on some of these lists, I really like that album. If it is compared to Kid A, it shouldn't be. There are some great songs on that record.

    Pablo Honey (I have only heard creep of this album. :oops: I still need to get it. :oops:

    I don't really feel like some of these albums belong on the bottom of the list. That's why ranking albums (especially for Radio head is so difficult. Radio Head has to honestly be the most art creating progressive band of the last decade. Every album has such great songs, and it's so hard to pick. Like I really do not believe KID A and Amneciac to be that low on my list musically, it's just I had to pick from a short list and an album has to go on the bottom. My reasoning for puttin Pablo Honey last was cause I haven't heard it. (I hang my head in shame. :oops: ).
