Overall rating: 8.9/10

I think it's a great album overall. I can see how this impacted people when they first listened to it (according to my dad lol) because it's honestly something you wouldn't have imagined you'd ever hear in those years

I really enjoy how they use that text-to-speech bot and blend it in songs, because it sounds totally amazing and it goes with the whole theme of the album. I also like how some songs start slowly but surely building up (example: Exit Music).

I can also see how this album clearly stood out from The Bends and Pablo Honey when it released. It has a whole different aura overall, and it deserves all the hype in my opinion. I also like how they had this rule that they couldn't erase anything, like Stanley Donwood said. It makes it all the more amazing.

The reason it's not a 10/10 is because some songs didn't really catch my attention, but that's just my personal opinion.

Overall, it's a great album, especially considering they did it on a computer with a tablet and a light pen. If you haven't listened to it fully, which I doubt, PLEASE do it. It's a great experience.

Standouts (in no particular order):

1. Exit Music (For A Film) 

2. Paranoid Android

3. The Tourist

4. Electioneering

5. Karma Police.

If anyone even reads this, I would really appreciate some album recommendations so I can review them! I'm also open to any critiques, since I'm still learning how to do all of this. Thank you! ✧˚ ༘ ⋆｡♡˚
