Radiohead
This is really really trite, and for that I apologize: Kid A is my favorite Radiohead album just because of its ability to manifest itself in my head, and I associate it with a my maturation into who I've become. There were a lot of nights I spent in high school hunched over my shitty turntable, listening to Thom wail about cheap sex, sad films, cutting kids in half and scaremongering. It's just so damned relatable in an avant-garde kind of way because its lyrics are intense enough to engrain itself into your head, and just vague enough to apply to oneself. Examples: They use really blunt imagery and terminology, but provide a dichotomy in keeping it nonspecific so we all think that bits and pieces of it were essentially carved into something personal. So, lyrically, I think it's perfect. Alluring also is the sound of the record, when it blends so well with the lyrics. In the title track, Thom essentially censored the words with voice effects because he thought they were so graphic. So this makes us question what the song means, and because Radiohead are so mysterious, we'll never really know. The lyrics are really vague: This combined with the ambience and risk-taking they used in their sound was something new. So it's the coming-together of the implied and the insatiable that makes it a damned good record. Their other albums aren't as self-serving and didn't take that creative leap.

It depends which one died Will: I would not leave my house for like a week and I would cry Jonny: I would be depressed, but I pint of Ben and Jerry's will take the edge off Chris: I would be upset that my childhood is, indeed, over Guy: I would not care. Well, that's mean. I would care sort-of.

I think Chris is the fittest but he looks like a llama so it kind of cancels it out
