markie, pal, the fact that you don't like kid a doesn't make me pathetic. it make's you blind.  i might even take under consideration something you had to say about radiohead if you hadn't pulled that little stunt, and if you didn't attempt to accuse radiohead of something the gallagher brothers have perfected.  nice try, but next time just don't try.

Then I will try and defend whatever I may or may not have said earlier. As it is I have no idea what you are talking about, or trying to get at.

man guys. you are really tearing me to shreds arent you?  prying apart my grammar is a really effective way of proving your point.  By the way, no, i didnt mean deaf, and i didnt mean literally blind. im sure you knew that as you are clever enough to point out the undeniable incoherence in my last post (due largely to me being very tired).  i can see i am out of my league with you brit-poppers.

Ok indeed, jadetree. I claimed to like Kid A, not radiohead as a whole, though i really like ok computer and amnesiac too.  I like how such a small-time forum can get so antagonistic. sorry for any part i played, but i like the music. besides the topic is the best album of the nineties, and ill admit thats not kid a. take your pick of a yo la tengo album and thats the answer to the question.

oh, heres what i was getting at with the oasis comment markie. if any of that style over substance crap you brought up has any validity towards radiohead, its exponentialized by oasis.

Who here wants to guess what year Kid A came out?  I would suggest not a year in the nineties.
