OK Computer versus Kid A

Many people consider OK Computer to be Radiohead's Magnum Opus. However, I've recently been listening to Kid A, and.... it has to be one of the greatest albums. Just the way the songs play out, there's just so much emotion and Expression! Which is extremely prevalent with 'The National Anthem'.

All in all, I'd have to say Kid A is easily they're best album, beating out OK Computer.

None of their albums are easily their best. Pablo Honey is easily their worst though.

Pablo Honey is easily their worst though.

Pablo Honey is great if you give it a chance and listen to it thoroughly. To me Hail To The Thief is the worst. I find that it's only half good - the good tracks are very good indeed (Sit Down Stand Up, Where I End And You Begin, There There), while the weak songs really aren't (We Suck Young Blood, Gloaming, Punchup At A Wedding).

The Bends, The Bends, The Bends...a million times...The Bends.

There is a 'best' Radiohead album, and it has gone previously unmentioned in this thread, unfortunately.
