Default More Radiohead please

I know they've got a new CD coming out soon. I have OK Computer and Amnesiac. What should be my next purchase?

It All depends on what album you liked better......if you like Ok Computer better, your best bet is to buy the Bends, if you liked Amnesiac go with Hail To The Theif, from what I've been reading the new album will be move rockish than blippish electronic which to me is a good thing.

I think Kid A would be a good choice. Give it a lot of listens but once you get into it, it's great. Better album than Amnesiac in my opinion.

I second Kid A. Took me a while, but now it is one of my favorite albums.

The bends is also good, but much more mainstream in its sound.

Yeah Kid A is my favourite overall Radiohead album.

That being said, I still love listening to Pablo Honey and thinking about how far they have come. Not dissing the album, it's great, just sooo different from where they are now. "Thinking About You" is one of my top 5 Radiohead songs ever.

But that's what makes Radiohead so freakin' great!

I'd get the Bends and Pablo Honey, and then move onto Kid A, Hail to the Theif and everything else.
IMO, it's nice to listen to the old stuff first, enjoy it and then move on the see how the band has progressed and changed over the years.

I'd also recommend starting with The Bends; its a great album. I find most post-Ok-Computer albums hard to get into on the first listen. After a few listens, the music start to grow on you, but The Bends just jumps out at you right away.
