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.
The 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.

Pros: The leap in songwriting and sonic detail from Pablo Honey is stunning.
Cons: Almost half the album affects me far less profoundly than it does my friends.
The Bottom Line: They did it to themselves, and that's what's really awesome. Not many bands have gone from potential one hit wonder status to material this stellar in one album's time.
