I really really struggle with Radiohead, simply down to the vocals.  I think their music though is great though, which makes it such a shame as no matter how often I have tried I simply cannot put up with Yorke's vocals.  If they were the sort of band that released their albums with a bonus instrumental disc I'd be laughing.  Some of the songs on OK Computer are fine but I just find it unlistenable.

In Absentia.  I'm a huge fan of PT but this one of my least favourite of their albums.  It's certainly not particularly proggy, not that that matters particularly to me.  There are a couple of excellent songs (Strip The Soul and Trains stand out for me) but I just can't understand how this is fawned over in comparison to most of their other releases.

I suppose it has to be In Absentia.  

I subscribe to your opinion almost word for word. Smile

Porcupine Tree, In Absentia.
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.
