While I think DSotM was more innovative considering the time it was released... I just like Kid A better.
A little less of what I'd consider "filler" on Kid A I guess.
Both solid records... Just in slightly different ways.

Yeah I would agree with this.

Though I will say that I love Syd Barret's playing on the early records. The playing certainly contains more depth, to me.

Can't disagree. I personally really like both playing styles. Syd's is a little overshadowed though unfortunately. I also enjoy both of their tones.

Oh and Johnny Greenwood is cool too.

That's an interesting viewpoint. It's one I rarely hear because all of my guitar player friends worship David Gilmour. I enjoy him, but I don't play guitar, I play drums so I have a different viewpoint. Either way it's satisfying to my ears for the most part. I have never thought of it as overtly flashy, but one thing I can say is it is certainly self-indulgent.

Really? Interesting. Well that's prettymuch how I feel about his playing: overtly flashy and excessive.

What Kid A needs is some over the top way-too-long David Gilmour solo's. Just right on top of the existing music. Real smooth-like.

I used to like Dark Side of the Moon better than Kid A, but every year I like DSOTM a tiny bit less and Kid A a tiny bit more.

I think I just heard DSOTM one time too many. It dominated the 70s. Even in the 80s it was blasting out of every third dorm window.

Kid A is alright. DSOTM is also alright, albeit much less alright.

Not a fan of either, but I have to go with Dark Side. It is the kind of record that if I was at somebody's house and it was the best thing they had...I'd play it. If they best thing they had was Kid-A, I would prefer silence.
