gaggle64 Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 One of my fav. ambums has to be Yoshimi battles the Pink Robots by the Flaming Lips - "Do You Realise" has to be one of the most relaxing, invigorating, kick-ass tracks ever!
gmac Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 ah the Flaming Lips, amazing band, and the best live show you will ever see
Schizoid Man Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Well, if you were hoping for RH to carry on a more rock n roll sound, you'd obviously find Kid A and Amnesiac a bit 'boring' (pains me to say it!). First time I heard Kid A, i was a bit "what the fuck." Then, after a week of solid listenage, it just clicked with me that this was some of the most beautiful music I'd ever heard, mostly as energetic as their previous stuff (national anthem, morning bell and idioteque certainly testify to that), but whirling synths and ambience, bizarre orchestration and headspinning jazzy brass just seem to work so well with Thom Yorke's voice and the image Radiohead create. It's brilliant, Kid A and OK Computer are equals IMO. Anyway, completely unrelated but Safe as Milk by Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band, and Soft Machine Volume 1 & 2 are favourites of mine, any love for them?
