Radiohead.

Still a pretty important album to me, to be honest.

Yeah, I'm not really understanding how this album will struggle to advance and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot essentially dominated its pairing.

I never was real big on OKC, and I can't recall ever listening to E&B.

I guess I'll sit this one out.

The contest is "Obner’s Definitive Favorite Album". I interpret that to mean what we like the most, not what gives us the most indie cred.

uh, at this point, choosing OR against OKC would be the more obnoxious hipster thing to do to gain more hipster cred, so....

"dude, screw radiohead maaaan, Echo are like so great."
