Thom Yorke emerged from the woodwork with a new-found vocal confidence, revealing a striking falsetto on two of the album's strongest tracks, "Fake Plastic Trees" and "High & Dry."

Arguably Radiohead's most important album

Author's Rating: 5/5 stars

Pros: Yorke's brilliant voice, fantastic melodies, almost uniformally strong songs.

Cons: "Sulk" is kind of weak; pales in comparison to OK Computer or Kid A.

Bottom Line:
Massively influential and excellent in just about every concievable way. It would've been the peak of anybody else's career, but the best was still yet to come for Radiohead. Read More
