It was mostly crap, but it hit the spot, and he let himself be drawn in.

Hey, what can I say? 15 Step drew me in right away. I can't help it if you have shitty taste in music...

[dubman]

but 15 step is one of the boring songs on there next to house of cards and jigsaw.

Nude is finally done, and in a way i'm glad they waited this long, because as bad as i wanted it then, they have vastly improved on it. might be my favorite radiohead tune EVR. reckoner is this album's There There moment, except it's much better. and i could put videotape on again and again it's so friggin good.

I love every track on this record. I love this record. It slays. I want to marry it.

I actually HATE Radiohead, but since I can get this for free, I did. I actually like some of it. I'm buying it.

HEY, why are the mp3s only 160kbps?

[dubman]

because they basically they said "mp3 will never be CD quality, so those of you holding out for all that detail wouldn't get it until the CD actually comes out."

it's pretty acceptable to me, honestly.
but i guess i proved awhile ago that my hearing isnt up to audiophile standards with the whole riverrun thing, so whatever.

they played the whole thing tonight on a local radio station, 99x. unfortunately, i only caught the last two songs. the second to the last was a pretty good song, but the last one i didn't like at all. is the last one the worst of all or is a lot of the album kid-a bzzt beep beep murmur piano moan slit-your-wrists?

cos i don't want to buy the album yet because i might buy the download and realise i've wasted money, but if i pay too little and end up liking it, i'd feel bad.

[Bargo]

Nah, they're not all in the flavour of that song ("Videotape"), in fact the general consensus among most of the forums I read is that people like that one the least. I actually have found it growing on me quite a bit, but I love the whole album to bits so that probably doesn't mean much.

I say take the risk and buy.

Two things:
One: Stop listening to crap radio. It's a waste of your braincells and time. Listen to 88.5 if you can stomach the kids who are "DJ'S"

Two: The solution to you feeling bad is: Buy it again if you like it. It's worth "owning".
