The Bends. I overplayed OK Computer. Amnesiac is also quite good, but I wish they would cut out the electronic crap. You are not good at electronic music, Thom; give it up!

I don't have The Bends, but I do like OK Computer a lot.

Kid A, though, is Radiohead's masterpiece. Everything else (save for "Pyramid Song") that comes later just falls into varying degrees of messyness.

Same. I think they're really good with the electronics. Kid A is also great. Not so interested in The Bends which is just good, alternative rock.

Amnesiac is a fine and very underrated album and i'm glad you enjoy it. Songs like "Dollars and Cents" "Pyramid Song" "LIfe In a Glass House" and a few more standout and make this album just as much of a msterpiece as Kid A and OK Comp.
 
out of teh two i like the bends much more than Ok Computer which i find to be overrated. The Bends is classic, though not prog but what does that matter? It's a great album (don't get me wrong so is okay computer but in my opinion almsot every other album in their catalogue is better than Ok Computer which is widely considered their best for some reason)
I'm a reasonable man, get off my case

I'm with King Volta, and consider OK Computer their transitional album. It's great - and it was especially great at the time that it came out - and I'd probably rate it 9,5 out of ten, but The Bends is a better Rock album and Kid A/Amnesiac are better experimental albums.
