It was. It was. I just realized after reading your reply that you did say Office Space. I think the first time I read your comment I read it as The Office, which is a show that I don't watch (but should). Sorry 'bout the mixup. &nbs

I was hoping that "I celebrate their entire catalogue" was an Office Space reference :D I guess I was pushing it a little, really!

Amusing update to this story - apparently, despite the fact that it's available for free from the band's website, more p

(OK Computer's "Fitter, Happier" not withstanding)

Maybe I got a little too much comfort from Dr. Sbaitso's synthesized voice back in the day, but I have to say that I don't understand the

Not terribly fond of Thom Yorke in permanent falsetto whine mode, either.

All I needed to hear to stay the hell away.

"meh"

I am much more moved by the ok computer/kid-a sound of radiohead. Alot of reviews I've heard of this album seem to say it's got "texture", which I suspect is a nice way of saying "it's a bunch of fucking noise and I don't really care for it".

"Hail to the Thief" and "Pablo Honey" are two albums I don't have. I have "OK Computer", "Kid A" and "Amnesiac". Given I have these three albums, are the other two worth picking up?

My recommendation -- go for "The Bends" next

No I haven't. Been watching the 3rd season of Stargate SG-1 recently. ;)

That was my question too when I read about the CD. I don't know, but I'm hopping it does. If not, then I might be tempted to buy the box set. Or, I'll probably just buy the CD and download the extra CD's material. ;)

You're also missing The Bends. Personally I'd recommend picking all of them up, but that's just cause I think they're all solid albums. They're just a bit different than the 3 you already have. I'm not very good at describing music, but I

Do you know if the released CD is going to also include the contents of the second CD in the Discbox? If I'd known they were going to release a real disc with more tracks, I would have paid less than I did up front and held out for the physical media

Have you been watching Office Space?

Seriously though, I agree completely about the format/quality issues. At least it's better than iTunes :/

So much stuff to talk about here. I guess I'll start with the obvious starting-point and then move off in tangents from there: the album. I like it. I wouldn't go so far to say that it's their "best album since Pablo Honey," but it is goo
