No more leaky holes in your brain, and no false starts
I love that line! And the whole song has a great beat!

Lancemc said:Hah. Is that all I've been complaining about the past week and a half? Hardly.
But the percussion on here really is lame as shit. Just go back and listen to the majority of tracks from HTTT that have a fair mix of percussion in them. They absolutely blow IR out of the water.
Aside from Reckoner, Videotape, and maybe bits and pieces of Jigsaw, it's just not happening.

I don't get that. I know so many people who started with OKC. I get it to the extent that everything we do is based on what came before (in a philosophical sense) but OKC is great all by itself, with or without The Bends.
But, I love all their records (except PH which no one should have to listen to for 2 weeks, I mean, come on, what's the point?) so I don't care where anyone starts. Just jump in somewhere.

No. I'm pretty sure I hit the nail on the head.
What makes OK Computer a great album then? It's great in relationship to other albums that have been created. If there were no other albums out there ANY album would be great.
Music, like words and most things that matter in life, is about context. If I was miraculously healed of deafness today, I would think that any music would sound amazing. Yes, even Nickleback. But, because I have listened to a lot of music I have developed an internal measure of greatness.
The Bends makes OKC great because it sets it in context. You know what came before it. Kid A makes it great because it sets what came after it. Other shit albums make it great because it sets what it is not.
I honestly have no idea what I am typing at this point, but I wanted to follow up with my last post with something even better. I believe I have achieved that with this post. In context that is...

So then why did I recognize OKC's greatness without having heard The Bends?

The only problem is Kid A and Amnesiac not being on the same disc....[forrest gump voice]those two records go together like peas and carrots[/forrest gump voice].
