Nah, I
will fight you here.
Yes, 'Burn the Witch' is spectacular, as is 'True Love Waits' (if inferior to the 2001 version). I've also got quite the fond spot for 'Present Tense'.
The problem I have is that the rest of it is effectively background music. I am being fully serious here, I've largely tuned out a lot of it and can tell you barely anything about most of the songs. 'Daydreaming' especially irks me, because it's as long as 'Paranoid Android' but nowhere near as interesting.

I have been listening to plenty of old bootlegs lately, and I've realised I was wrong on Pablo. It's not a complete trashfire, it's got a few excellent tracks along with plenty forgettable ones. Like AMSP.
Basically you've got your Holy Trinity (Bends, OKC, Kid A), which are beyond amazing. Then, in whatever order you prefer, Amnesiac, Hail to the Thief, In Rainbows. (I'm overly harsh on IR and I really shouldn't be, but the others appeal to me more - they have more impressive experimentation). Then AMSP, Pablo, and TKOL.

My introduction was 'Echo's Answer', which was on the Alternative 90s playlist on Spotify. So I relistened to that, then went Work and Non Work because it was the first one.
