Is it not the opposite? Maybe you out grow the older records, but albums like Amnesiac have grown on me as I've got older. 

Don't think I've really outgrown anything. With the exception of the really angry daddy didn't love me stuff. Aside from that I still enjoy pretty much everything I did back then.

Trouble is that as I discover more music it never replaces, only adds to. Which means there's way more music I want to listen to than there is time in the day!

I tend to binge listen rather than listen intermittently. 

Every year I have a listening binge of Radiohead, Grandaddy, The Smiths / Mozzer at some point and binge read / anthology watch about The Beatles. I'm starting to think I like the story of the Beatles more than listening to them.

I feel that way about a few things! I tend to enjoy sports talk shows more than the actual sports themselves. I've actually stopped watching some sports but still listen to podcasts etc. regularly.

Well you can always learn a new nugget of information about the story, but you're not likely to hear a Beatles song you've never heard before.

1. Love reading interviews. Even interviews with people I utterly dislike. 

2. Listening to test matches on the radio rather than watching them in TV. 

3. Moaning about Pablo Honey far more times than I've ever listened to it.

Swap test matches for golf and I'm right with you

True. I have a book that describes what the Beatles did on almost every single day of their existence. Fucking ridiculous!

Noooooo. Love watching golf!

To keep slightly on topic - some bloke at work moved house from Coventry to down nearer here - Berkshire / Oxfordshire - somewhere a few years ago, joined the local cricket team and apparently Ed O'Brien rocked up in his whites to play as a sometime member of the team. 

Sounds a bit smelly (???) to me, but a decent story. 

I'll try and clarify at work tomorrow.

That sounds pretty believable actually. Though if you're a Radiohead fan you wouldn't bowl the short stuff at Ed in case he breaks a finger!

I know someone who knows someone who says Ed has a therapist for his cat. Not even joking. 

[SwedgeAntilles]

That Osaka 08 set list is a beast.

"Alright Tiddles?"

"No, I'm not fucking alright, Ed. When will that wailing coming from the basement ever fucking stop? Sounds like a cat being strangled. Piss off on tour for Christ's sake"

Reckoner is a really weird opener 

[Madyaker]

Anyone else think the car is a good place to get stuck into an album? I did about 6 hours of driving over the weekend and listened to Ok Computer in full a few times for the first time, it's amazing, airbag is some opener! There's something very enjoyable about driving alone at night with good tunes on the stereo.

Agree. 

But getting out of the car mid-song is fucking abhorrent behaviour though.

Agree 100% 

Slightly off topic, but Smashing Pumpkins - Eye is one of my favourite night time driving songs. 

I find it very therapeutic going for a drive with a load of music playing though. And as you say, Radiohead is excellent road music. Particularly songs like Street spirit in my opinion.

[CHRLY]

Teen Age Riot is the BEST song to drive around at night to

[zero000]

Kill for love is the perfect night time driving album. Fact.

I listened to pablo honey on the way home yesterday - it's still gash. 3/10

I listened to the bends on the way in today - it's much better than I remembered. 7/10

OK computer tonight. Exciting times!

 

Well I have to say I was a bit disappointed with ok computer. The high points are very high, but some of the tracks are quite average in comparison to the rest of their work. And let down isn't even in my top 3 songs on this album....7.5/10

Kid A: yep still one of my favourite albums. Loved it. 9/10

Amnesiac: I'd forgotten how good this is. On a par with kid a really. Great stuff. 9/10

I have to be in the mood for it. Ive put it on and had to turn it off as it's bored me. Other times I have really felt it. I disagree that it is as good as Kid A. 

HTTT is in my opinion Radiohead's most underappreciated work. Its an unpopular point of view, but I love it. It might be the fact it used to get me through comedowns, but I used to put it on a lot during that time.

I don't get why amnesiac gets so slated- I'm sure the inclusion of 'morning bell' again brings down the whole album. Aside from that track it's enjoyable and not too different quality wise than kid a 

[SwedgeAntilles]

I love Morning Bell, probably my favourite track on the album
