Radiohead: Every Album Ranked From Worst To Best
Down really is the new up.
There are three things that should not be discussed late at night, when everyone in your group is tired, emotional, and has had a drink or three. The first of these is politics, the second religion, and the third is which album by Radiohead is their best. Because for many, the Oxford band are like a religion, and any criticism of them - constructive or otherwise - can be treated like you've just nailed a heretical tract to a church door.
Choosing their worst work is a pretty thankless task too, because even a bad Radiohead album is far superior to most other bands good ones. Not to mention the fact that theyre so enigmatic, a new album could literally be announced any minute, meaning this article could in theory be redundant by the time you've finished reading it.
But ever the gamblers we're willing to risk the potential double-whammy of fans fury and being gazumped by Thom Yorke and co, to bring you the definitive ranking of Radiohead's eight studio albums, from worst to best.
