Radiohead - Kid A (2000)

The fourth album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboard, samples, programming and vocals. 

Some guests added strings, woodwinds and programming. 

The band returned after some straight, melodic indie and art-rock albums with this album.

The music here is something else compared with their first three hit albums. It is like the band has re-programmed themselves and come out of the process as a trippy, indie band.

There is a lot of gloomy ambient music here and the music is pretty avant-garde throughout.

It is also big, bold and epic. And it is progressive and really pushing the envelope. 

The music and vocals is also fascinating. It does not take any prisoners.

This is indeed a very good album from a band who has broken all barriers and has made their own rules. The band deserves lots of respect for releasing this album. 

3.5 points
