Pablo Honey was the only Radiohead album I think of as fantastic.
 
I loved all the Radiohead albums up until the latest one (to varying extents). Despite repeated spins, I'm not connecting with King Of Limbs. Maybe I'm getting older or they're getting weirder. Maybe both.

Their last one, though, In Rainbows, was pretty excellent. That was elliptical in composition but the melodies were still stellar. Their latest one (with a couple of exceptions) just feels unfocused to me.

OK Computer, Pablo Honey and In Rainbows still rank as my favourites from them.
 
When I heard Pablo Honey I loved it, it hit you where you did not expect it. I like the Bends and OK Computer - but after that - I just lost interest. I must admit that I did not even bother trying In Rainbows. Maybe I should give it a try with this recommendation - but at some point they got into the "I do not care anymore" category.

You really, really should listen to In Rainbows.
