These are all after and including OK Computer. I'm more interested in that stuff than their earlier stuff, which never really attracted me.

Notable early songs are Creep and Iron Lung - I love those, but I don't love the albums as much.

Pick your favorite!

Mine is OK Computer, and I bet lots could say the same. :)

Of these, OK Computer, with Kid A a close second. I would, though, have chosen The Bends if possible. Just love that album.

Having heard them all numerous times (including the ones you left out of the poll) my vote goes to In Rainbows. One of the very few albums I would dare to call perfect.
Hail to the Thief is a close second.

Kid A. Faithfully electronic (which makes it a focused endeavor), done with finesse, and still fresh. Not a track on it I don't like. "Motion Picture Soundtrack" and the title track are fantastic, but "Treefingers" takes it all.

Trailed by King Of Limbs (that's right) and A Moon Shaped Pool, but they don't even come close.

I've listened to all of them at least once. Although I don't hate them, nothing on them makes me want to listen to them again. There's so much better stuff out there.

OK Computer for me, but I agree The Bends is excellent. Arguably their second best album. Some of te later stuff I love. In Rainbows is great but others I struggle with.

I find that I struggle to listen to the albums after Amnesiac more than a couple of times before getting somewhat fed up with them. Then I return to them after a long time, enjoy parts as wonderful, but get bored again and go off on a sabbatical.

Yeah, it's mostly post Amnesiac stuff I struggle with.

Definitely The Bends over these.

Not a band I've ever come to like and I have tried.

I own several albums, listened to them multiple times but they just seem kinda...dull to me Unhappy
