OK Computer is my pick. You can't go wrong with either though. Kid A is more varied and experimental as everyone else is saying, but OKC is still really incredible. They're just really great songs.

kid a - 6/10 - there's just some really poor tracks i feel that ruin it. i just can't play it all the way through
ok computer - 9/10 - v. good album, and more of an 'album' rather than a collection of tracks, if you know what i mean. i think seeing the videos with some of the tracks help understand it more
i'd also give amnesiac 8/10, pablo honey 6/10, & the bends 9.5/10 - easily their best work imo, an all time classic

i would go for the combined 2 CD release called Kid Computer A OK..which was basically the start of the motivational Self Help/Self Destruct cult Thom Yorke started for people who were convinced that they were Androids...as well as rock bands who thought they were Autechre because they bought some of the same gear...

im gonna say ok computer. kid a is really good but i doubt ok computer will ever be topped as the best 1. oablo honey is atrociously bad, the bends is pretty good and amnesiac is like kid only not as good because of that awful morning bell remix.

Both shit?? wheres your respect for Radiohead, there is only a few times I would reply in this message board and this is that time.
Both Kid A and ok computer have a different field of music, but theres something about ok computer that lifts me up, I love all Radiohead but I would say
OK computer =)

lucky was made in 1995 and first appeared on the War Child album, so it was made for that album. the earliest and best song on OK Computer, followed closely by everything else on that album.

Kid A is the greatest album ever! [in my opinion of course]
OK Computer is a very good album aswell, but that silly choir keyboard thing really gets on my nerves. If it was used on only a couple of songs, it'd be alright - but everywhere you turn.. they're THERE and they drive me INSANE!
Kid A pushed them further much more than OK Computer.

Radiohead is a very awesome brilliant band. I first got interested in Radiohead through Amnesiac, but i had seen the videos for "Paranoid Android" and "Karma Police", and thought they were pretty cool. I went backwards in listening to the albums, starting with Kid A and Ok Computer, then The Bends and Pablo Honey. I can also say that The Bends and Pablo Honey were fairly decent productions, but not as good the recent step-up from old sounds.....
I thought Amnesiac was fucking brilliant at first, not knowing what to expect from such a diverse cover and songtitles......
Amnesiac, brought it too cool-land in songs like "You And Whose Army?", "Hunting Bears", "Like Spinning Plates", "I Might Be Wrong", and "Dollars and Cents".
Kid A was a similar approach, but felt a bit more homely than the distant Amnesiac......
I liked the songs "Everything In Its Right Place", "Optimistic", "Idioteque", "Motion Picture Soundtrack", "How To Disappear Completely", and "Kid A".........."Treefingers" really brought it out on a limb there, i liked that......
OK Computer was also very good........a very very good album.....
My favorite songs are "Subterranean Homesick Alien", "Exit Music (For A Film)", "Paranoid Android", "Karma Police", "Climbing Up the Walls"....and many others.
If were to get a Radiohead album, it would be in this order:
1. Amnesiac -(if you don't already have it) 2. Kid A 3. OK Computer
that's right move backwards....save the best for last.
sorry if you fell asleep twice while reading this.....

I didnt fall asleep twice but read it twice and I think what you wrote was amazingly great!!!!
Amnesiac is so far my favorite album...but I'm such a fan of all Thom Yorke's work.Especially a song he does with P.J Harvey.
