Amnesiac by RadioheadMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I don't think there's a Radiohead album that I don't like. This album is a beautiful one, with songs like "Knives Out" and "Pyramid Song." They never fail to impress me with their strangely haunting songs, and the innovative electronic play of melodies that can at times be dissonant, but also harmonious.
Their lyrical content is also symbolic and unusual, yet really drives home to the heart without being overly forthright. Thom Yorke wears his heart on his sleeve without wearing it on his sleeve, if that makes sense. There's an indirect candidness that is truly powerful and wonderful.
Thank goodness for this album. I think I'm on a roll with the good ones. Lovely.
