Battle of the albums 2: Agaetis Byrjun VS. Kid A
« on: October 08, 2012, 05:04:23 AM »
may seem odd to some to put those 2 albums against each other, but I feel like those 2 albums belong to the same music scene.
both have that cold ambient feel to them, both are emotional masterpieces, both were released close to each other (Agaetis Byrjun 1999, Kid A 2000).

I love them both, but I have to go with Kid A.

Well, I like Kid A well enough, but Ageatis Byrjun is in a whole other league. And Sigur Ros are my favourite band while Radiohead are probably not even in my Top 10, so it's pretty obvious for me.

Ageatis, easily. Staralfur alone is superior to Kid A.

Well its completely different music.  Kid A is all electronicky but still very pop-song focused and very experimental.  AB is more orchestral and grand and very organic.  I'll go with Kid A, as its much more interesting and cool.

Went with Kid A. Agaetis Byrjun is amazing, but I think ( ) and Takk are better.

Treefingers, In Limbo and Morning Bell are all completely forgettable to me.

Idioteque is okay, but I don't see what all the fuss is about.

Both timeless classics, but I've gotta go with Kid A just cause I'm a Radiohead fanboy.

In Limbo and Morning Bell are absolutely brilliant imo, and Treefingers is beautiful
well each and his own opinion i guess :/
