I don't hate Kid A, and in fact see some worth in it. But there is absolutely nothing I find compelling about it. I am never on the verge of tears or any emotional state after listening to it.

Not compelling, or even listenable. In fact, it is 100% Crap. "Voodoo Lounge," now THERE'S a compelling album!

Loogar's love for the Stones just leaves him so wide open it's like he's in Ultimate Fighting with his balls hanging out.

Yeah, strangely Bloor and I had a convo today about this album, and how it is actually pretty good minus the single and that he was gonna pick it up one of these days.

I may goof occasionally, but I don't think the Stones have ever made a completely BAD album. Weak? yes. Disapointing when considering what they used to do? of course. But totally unlistenable shit with no redeeming qualities? nope. Pretty amazing.

grrrrrrrrrrrr... :evil: well, to each their own i suppose.

kid a= compelling, i don't know. although, no matter how many times i've listened to "idioteque," i can NEVER get sick of it. all radiohead albums pull my soul apart (except pablo honey).

but i will repeat for the 2738943942th time that the bends does it for me. i get very emotional (both good & bad) every time i listen to that album (for various reasons).
