So you're three albums into my rankings, and I can tell you're thinking that this is going to be another prosaic and hackneyed chart with no originality at all. Maybe you're right, but ranking this album this high can't be considered trite at all. It's just really that good. [First added to this chart: 08/20/2012]

Musically, this whole album sounds like it's in a foreign language. In other words, those of us who consider ourselves fluent in the language of "Radiohead" appreciate the electronic beauty this album bestows upon us. [First added to this chart: 08/20/2012]

In Rainbows is really the quiet assassin of Radiohead albums. You know its great the first time you listen to it, but you probably don't consider it an all-timer. Then you check your Ipod and realize you've listened to "All I Need" 419 times. Then you grasp the fact that, "oh yeah, these ten songs have impacted my life."

"High and Dry" made me a Radiohead fan. Going into to college, I knew about "Creep" because it was/is the only Radiohead song that gets played on radio. After falling for "High and Dry," The Bends became the gateway drug to "OK Computer" before I finally got hooked on the black tar heroin that is "Kid A." [First added to this chart: 08/20/2012]
