So did I!
I mean if you were 13/15 in 2000 and your musical taste didn’t deviate much from pop and rock I can really see how Kid A would seem incredibly weird. I was 15 and it also seemed weird to me, and I have to note I was into Aphex Twin at that point in my life so that smoothened the first impression a lot. Even some adult critics writing for big publications dismissed it when it first came out because it wasn’t OKC2.OKC also felt very insular and certainly weird when compared to the rest of the mainstream “alternative” scene of the mid to late 90’s.Weird or depressive are the two main descriptions I’ve heard from people when they explain why they don’t listen to Radiohead.― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Wednesday, May 27, 2020 11:26 PM (two weeks ago) bookmarkflaglinkMy experience exactly, down to my age when Kid A came out.Also: great revive.― pomenitul, Wednesday, May 27, 2020 11:33 PM (two weeks ago)

'72 Baby! Exile and On the Corner (along with Europe '72) were my other choices. Though I think '71 and '73 might have better choices.

I want to claim 1972 too--I was reborn that year when I became immersed in Top 40 radio like never before.

I had Soundtracks, Let it Bleed and The Man Who Sold the World but I'll be honest and pick Plastic Ono Band (Lennon). I think.

The real answer is Slates but since that's clearly an EP, I'll go with the first self-titled Indoor Life album.
Runner-ups = Odyshape, Tin Drum, Return of the Giant Slits

Me neither. Lack of albums I like to that extent.
Not saying they were all bad albums in 1961, just..
― Mark G, Thursday, 18 June 2020 10:01 (five years ago)
There you go, it's "The Young Ones" soundtrack. Played that a few times back in the day.

1979 has loads of brilliant albums but nothing I really think of as a personal favourite.
