Power Windows is a Top 5 Rush album
2112 is not.

Top Five may be a stretch, but it's definitely far better than it gets credit for. All 8 cuts are excellent with a few being as well in the upper echelon of the group's extensive song list. Lots of underrated gems there.

As a Radiohead appreciator, I'm finding OK Computer more and more overrated. Airbag, Paranoid Android, Subterranean Homesick Alien, Karma Police are still fantastic, but I think I'd prefer even The Bends over this album. There's more filler on this album than I realized before (after just listening to it in the dark).
idk - maybe it was just a a bad moment, but OK Computer definitely is not their best album, little alone the best album ever as this site and RYM users collectively agree upon.
EDIT: of course this doesn't shock anyone in this forum... but yeah.

I'm going to agree with this opinion (other than the track picks) and then make it a little spicier: I'm seven albums deep into Radiohead's discography and it's my least favorite of theirs so far. Still haven't heard The King Of Limbs or Pablo Honey.

interesting track picks... while i agree this isn't the band's best, the tracks i find the fillerest are karma polica, no surprises and electioneering. personal highlights are lucky, climb up the walls and let down.

OKC is the album that got me into Radiohead - it blew my mind when I really heard it for the first time. But I still agree with this. No Surprises is kinda boring, tbh. I do like most of the other songs, but the production is a little bit cold, a bit brittle at times, too much so to my liking. Still, occasionally I'll be really in the mood for this particular mode of Radiohead, and then it hits the spot. But it's still maybe 6-7th best for me, only superior to KoL (which I still really like) and PH. Ranking subject to change
