I think it's the best thing they've done to date. I guess don't listen to it expecting "songs", even though "How to disappear completely" is a stand-out classic. I have fond memories of long train journeys with that album, looking out the window at the countryside, not really concentrating on anything. If there's such a thing as a right way to listen to Kid A, I'd vote for that...

Yea, to me, too, it's kind of like a theatrical score.. you listen to the whole album to "get" the story. I used to listen to it while driving around the countryside in wintertime.. the music just fit - wide & expansive & sort of somehow devoid of life. It was background music & a soundtrack.
