as people are going on about Radiohead, for me it was strange: I had bought "Pablo Honey " long ago and never got anything out of it. It just wasn't any good to me. I could listen to Creep and then nothing. Then I bought Kid A (because it was on special offer and I thought it could be funny listening to another Radiohead album I don'T understand) and I tried liking that one, but of course it didn'T work out, as always for me and Radiohead. That's what I thought. Because after Kid A I put on P'Hun again, just to listen to Creep and think how I am like those people who hear "Blur" and think "song 2", just with RAdiohead. And suddenly something changed with me and this band and I found out: Pablo Honey is a party album. Nothing goes on as cool as "Anyone can play guitar". And then it's cool now: I can like a Radiohead album.
while there's no money-back guarantee on future happiness, i'd say that you've visited the thesis and antithesis. liked a little bit of both? head for the synthesis. "the bends" and "OK computer" enjoy!
