agreed. i'm glad they started using guitars again. hail to the thief is better than in rainbows, and ok computer is better than hail to the theif... the bends may be better than ok computer.

yep.

in rainbows is my #3. i think it does a great job of setting a mood throughout. never really got into kid a, amnesiac or hail to the thief as full albums

OP must not be a fan of Autechre then (duo that inspired Radiohead's Kid A sound).

I like guitars

Love Ok Computer and think Kid A is overrated.

not only is Kid A one of the most important albums of the past 25 years, it's also one of the best

In Rainbows is pretty fucking important as well, but Kid A is damn near perfect

I like Kid A... but it took a while for me to get it.

And I suck because I like OK Computer the most of all their albums.

There is too much music that I "get" right off the bat for me to worry about listening to something many times before I finally like it.

There is plenty of "important" music, movies, and books that I don't really care for. I'm sure Kid A inspired plenty of great music that I love, but I still don't feel like I have to love Kid A.

I understand what you mean (because one problem I have today is almost too many options for movies, books, music, etc.) but at the same time a lot of my favorite records of all times were "growers" so I make it a point to come back to certain albums and give them additional chances. Some of them never click, but a surprising number of them have ended up being favorites.
