The band eventually returned in 2000 with the spare, minimalistic ‘Kid A’. The album earned them a number one in America thanks largely to the interest generated by ‘OK Computer’ and its advance leak on the then popular illegal file-sharing website, Napster.

- The album opens strong...really like the first 5 songs. They definitely create a new radiohead sound motif, an amalgamation of drowny ambiance, thumping bass, multi-limbic rhythms, and an over all drained-of-color, as in blank and white (like a newspaper) feel to it. Thus making it the antithesis of In Rainbows, which was iridescent and filled with color. A polar album in that sense.
They have again morphed and yet retained their essence, which is a signature of all their great albums.

- Who actually cares about this band anymore, apart from music critics and snobby music fans? I agree that they are good (although they haven't made a masterpiece since The Bends and OK Computer) but there are many bands making much better albums today.
