Yeah this is quite odd.

But either way, it's an amazing album. I know it's been praised to death, but it deserves it. I think it's disgusting that Rolling Stone has it ranked so low on their list...in the low 100's I believe? That's a joke.

For me personally the opening 3 tracks is the best 1 2 3 punch I've ever heard to start an album. And Paranoid Android is quite possibly my all time favorite song. I get chills ever single time I listen to it.

Rolling stone didn't place it there, the voters did. unless of course your referring to the recent butchered version of said list.

By the way, I highly suggest you check out the 123 punch from "Are you experienced?". I think you might enjoy it.

At any rate, I don't blame them for having this as the album of the day. Especially after the success of Kid A's day in the spotlight. Perhaps they could have waited a little while in hindsight. Oh well.

Pretty sure that's a glitch.. It's only about a month since it was previously the album of the day.
