The King of Limbs has grown on me alot.
Really? I never tried planting something on mine. I should try that.

Perpetual Change

I'll "plant something" on yours right now!



Uh...

Codex is amazing. That is all.

I literally just came here to post that. I went from hating it after one listen to being absolutely in love with it. I would even dare to say that it might be the best album of 2011 so far.

Zantera

I'm kinda the opposite, I loved it the first ~10 listens, but now my interest for the album is pretty much gone.
There isn't really anything wrong with it, the songs are all good, and I would say that Lotus Flower and Codex are my favorites, but it hasn't "wowed" me in the same way that the other albums has.
I'm kinda disappointed tbh. :(

Same for me. I really enjoyed it on first listen, and I still really enjoy it when I do spin it, but nothing has really clicked after repeated listens, and I feel like I enjoy it already to the extent that nothing ever will. It's still great, just not the kind of thing I actively want to listen to a lot like I do, say, In Rainbows.

Went a bit different for me. I thought it was great, it got better and then I got bored with it. And I started listening to it again this week and it's fantastic now. Can't wait to get the vinyl sometime next week :D.

Me neither, I can't wait to see what they did with the newspaper thing.

I've just completed my first listen of The King of Limbs. Really good! I need to listen to it more to make up my mind but I love it already! :tup

Zantera

Hopefully it wont fade on you, like it has done for some in this thread.  :tup

Okay, so I like Radiohead now. Can I join this club? :D

No. It took you far too long to realize how great Radiohead is.

zxlkho

Too bad. I invited myself in.

OK Computer is the best them.

What is wrong with you.

In Rainbows
Kid A
OK Computer
The Bends
The King of Limbs
Hail to the Thief
Amnesiac

And even then for the most part I don't dislike those last two.

zxlkho

Even though I only have 2 listens of each, there is NO WAY Kid A is better than OK Computer.

skydivingninja

Like I said in Facebook chat, Kid A is the definition of a grower album.  Give it a few years.

Quadrochosis


skydivingninja

Yeah.  I didn't think it was all that great when I heard it in 2008.  By 2010 I realized just how much I listen to it now.

Since you have King Of Limbs over OK Computer don't even bother.

Oh, there is a way!  In fact, the two go back and forth as far as what is my 2nd favorite Radiohead record.

But In Rainbows is the best.  FACT. :biggrin:

The In Rainbows Bonus Disc is much better than In Rainbows.

Ravenheart

In Rainbows is a great album, and probably my 3rd favorite or so.

Xanthul

I've only listened to four so far and I like them in this order:

Kid A (awesomesauce)
OK Computer
The Bends
In Rainbows

Zantera

In Rainbows
