hey guys.... i've just sort of got into radiohead and i was wondering what is there best album(s) because i will download them....

It really depends;

most people will go with The Bends or OK Computer.

The first is a bit more raw rock, the second more experimental but still rock songs. It's often voted best ever album over here in the UK.

To be honest, you really ought to have both of them.

After that, Pablo Honey was their debut and has some good songs, plus Creep.
Kid A is admired but I'm not sure how much people actually sit and listen to it.

You can do without Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief in my opinion.

Hope this helps!

Pablo Honey and The Bends. Even though over here OK Computer was voted best album ever (or second best) on a TV show. Pablo Honey and The Bends are the best in my opinon. It's good you are getting into them I just wish they would go back to their music origins rather than this electronic stuff they are currently strung out on. Not a big fan of the Kid A album and the albums that follow. Enjoy the early stuff

BUMP BUMP BUMP

1. In Rainbows (got me into them and keeps me into them)
2. Hail To The Thief (just listen to 2+2=5 and Sit Down, Stand Up)
3. Kid A (Idioteque! The National Anthem! Everything In It's Right Place!)
4. The Bends (My Iron Lung, Just, Nice Dream...)
5. OK Computer (Gotta love Karma Police)
6. Amnesiac (still lovely)
7. Pablo Honey (Creep's the only really good song on that one)


Best band after U2

It takes a few listens, but it definitely isn't their worst!
You And Whose Army, Packed Like Sardines In A Crushed Tin Box and Pyramid Song are awesome!

In Rainbows is amazing, better than OK Computer in my opinion. It took a couple of listens to really get into it but after that those songs never let you go.

Really every song of that album is great. 15 Step, Bodysnatchers, Nude, Weird Fishes, All I Need, Reckoner, Jigsaw Fallin Into Place and Videotape are some of their best songs ever. And the bonus tracks are beautiful too. Down Is The New Up and Bangers And Mash could easily be put on the album without making it weaker!
