Radiohead: Every Album Ranked From Worst to Best

radiohead Radiohead is probably the greatest band of the past two decades and I know music is subjective but everyone has at least one Radiohead song that they like. Radiohead's sound is so broad and experimental yet somehow they've been a mainstay on the mainstream pop charts for well over a decade now. I realize it is an arduous task to rank their albums in terms of quality since each one sounds nothing like the one that came before yet still has a familiar sound. For the record I don't believe they have a bad album in the bunch, every one is amazing in its own way. When I listen to a Radiohead record and I don't like it I just think to myself "when will I like this record?" because I always end up loving their music no matter what era or album it was for the band. Without further ado I now present to you every Radiohead album ranked in quality from worst to best.

8. Pablo Honey (1993)

radiohead-pablo-honey The one Radiohead album that most fans like to deny its existence instead of praise. Yes, there's no doubt that Pablo Honey is easily the weakest of all of their albums but it still has some shining moments that show the direction they were heading with their followup. Anyone Can Play Guitar features some fantastic work by Jonny Greenwood and Blow Out is the perfect culmination of their more alternative, guitar rock inspired sound of this time. No discussion of Pablo Honey would be complete without Creep which is fair since it is the best song on the album. It's the song all "true" Radiohead fans hate because all "fake" Radiohead fans love it. It's the most divisive song in their catalogue but also the most popular. However, much debt is owed to Creep for launching the career of Radiohead and Pablo Honey is a solid debut. Key Tracks- Creep, Anyone Can Play Guitar

My favorite movies are Before Sunrise, Pulp Fiction, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Alien and Her so don't be surprised to see those pop up in my writing from time to time. I'm currently in school for Journalism/English and I have an obsession with all things cinematic on the side.
