Okay.

Edit: Huh, I dunno what I was expecting but that wasn't it. Kind of cheery/relaxing and unsettling at the same time. Reminded me a bit of Undertale's OST, weirdly. Have no idea what the fuck those lyrics are supposed to mean, lol.
Edit2: Ah, it's about deception and misleading, looking at the lyrics. There are different versions of the second set of lines which tweaks the meaning slightly, indicating that the perspective character spouts lies, which others parrot, that he's self-aware of this, and does it deliberately. Title seems kind of disconnected from the lyrics. Any deeper meaning is probably lost when taken out of context of the album, probably.
Edit3: Oh noooo you meant the full album... okay.

On Kid A: I think it's interesting. Certainly at least worth listening to. Pretty lengthy intros to some songs. A lot of electric instruments and distortion. I have hearing problems and I had difficulty making out a lot of the lyrics (so I switched to a playlist where the videos had the lyrics up), and I had the same issue with Creep despite it not being distorted, so this is probably just a thing with Radiohead music. Similarly, I could tell that there were quieter parts to the songs being played but I couldn't make them out too well. I might try and listen again later with headphones.
Subject matter is heavy but it's paired with instrumentation that is not too heavy and balances it out except at the end.

OK Computer is their best album imo, followed by The Bends. Amnesiac is good too, but after that they start sounding samey to me.

Kid A is probably the last album I'd tell someone to start with. OK Computer or In Rainbows would be best. I think those two albums best cover their range. I love Kid A, but it definitely strays farthest from their normal sound.

bruh what

In Rainbows is up there with OK Computer and Kid A as contender for best. A Moon Shaped Pool is also fantastic and arguably has one of the best closers, especially given its history (though almost all their album closers are strong). And Hail to the Thief is pretty underrated. Literally none of these albums sound remotely similar to each other

I love all their stuff
