Summary: 2002-12-16 00:00:00 I think that this cd is one of the best that radiohead has came out with. I don't really care for alot of synthesized sounds and music but I think that the sounds mesh with Radioheads style really well.

Summary: 2002-09-29 00:00:00 There seems to be a common reaction to Kid A of pain. Fans with a grim determination to like it no matter how long it takes,listening endlessly til the blood pours from their ears; or non-fans who listen once and dub it "radiator noise".For me this is the only Radiohead album I really loved the first time I played it. (The others all took at least a couple of plays, Amnesiac being my current favourite).There's something about the flow of the music, the shifts from say the beautiful "How to disappear" to the infectious dance of "Idiotheque"(which it's impossible to keep still through) which makes you feel good having listened to it.And it does get even better when you've played it a few times.Ok, it doesn't seem to be to everyone's taste (what is?)but, cross my heart, it is "proper" music and wonderful music at that.In short:Kid A:Not some form of torture device.

Summary: 2002-03-01 00:00:00 This is a superb album written by one of the most brilliant and influenciel bands of our time. It might take a while to grow on you but given time you'll love it. Good to see a band at their peak writting music that interests them, rather than just trying to impress their fans. The fact that they're as popular as ever is a testimant to their talent.

Summary: 2001-06-22 00:00:00 Kid A is the kind of album that grows on the listener the more she listens to it. It took me a while to appreciate it's hauntingly beautiful sonic qualities. Many people have attacked it, calling it pretensious and frustratingly obtuse, and I'll admit it's not especially "welcoming", but I personally enjoy listening to "challenging" music. Music that brushes past the listeners ears without provoking her to think or feel anything (even ambivalence) may be considered an "easier" listen, but I believe that music is always better when the listener is encouraged to take part in the music through analysis, repeated listening and personal interpretation. For anyone else who feels the same way about music, I highly reccommend Kid A. The hauntingly beautiful "How to Disappear Completely" is my current "anthem"!!!

Summary: 2001-04-25 00:00:00 Even though it's no OK Computer, I still think this is a real good album. My favorite album of recent is "our lady Peace" spiritual machines", and Kid A is a close second!

Summary: 2001-03-30 00:00:00 People only like this album because "RADIOHEAD is on the front. If I put this out no one would buy it and no radio station would play anything on it. I LOVE Radiohead, but this album has nothing to offer. I think since they were so original and creative with "OK COMPUTER" they wanted people to think the same of this album. The only thing original and amazing about it is that is sucks when all their other albums were amazing.

Summary: 2001-03-03 00:00:00 Not "The Bends", or even "OK Computer" esq, this album is an aquired taste , especially if your more into Radiohead's guitar influnced stuff.However, "Kid A" takes a walk down the Massive Attack path, combining futuristic vocal sampling with crass 80's analogue malarky.Of course its experimental ut none the less this album is wicked, you just need to watch "Bladerunner" a few too many times first, then you'll get what Tom Yorke is all about!

Summary: 2001-02-12 00:00:00 After five full listens it still hasn't grown on me. There is too much dance beat and none of the intensity of OK computer. OK computer was IMHO the best album of the last ten years and Kid A has been a disapointment, so far. Maybe it will grow on me and I'll come back and up this score. Sorry guys.

Summary: 2001-02-05 00:00:00 The first time I listened to Radiohead it struck me to be an album from next century. I had to buy it. It is an organic work, something you cannot listen to in isolated tracks. It is simply wonderful. My best atmosphere creator!!!
