ok computer has to be the most overrated album of all time. it is a good, creative album, but it's not that special and probably isn't even the best radiohead album. i think a lot of its popularity must come from grammy exposure hype etc.

Gish is good and probably the better overall album, but for some reason I really love the song "Disarm" which is why Siamese Dream got listed here.

This list is probably more alt than anythin I come up with. You're new. You'e double-alt.

Did you like Superwolf? I did a lot, but some of the people I know that really dig Will Oldham weren't too turned out for it. I think it's a fantastic disc, though. "Beast for Thee" has been clutch for me in terms of "hey, this song might get me a blowjob." And "Blood Embrace" is just a fantasticly dark tune.

Great list.
