RufatR.Oct 19, 2007Music is not so different, as in previous albums. But it's still Radiohead stylish, and Thom's voice is still one of the most sinsere ones.

JustinJan 6, 2008As with OKC and Kid A, my inability to find words to describe their brilliance is countered by my inability to describe where In Rainbows lacks. The best I can do for our generation's Beatles: It's good enough.

magnusmatstomsOct 13, 2007Decent but far from the high points of Ok Computer and The Bends

MarkR.Oct 17, 2007Yes you know, I like the record, but sometimes I just want a damn distorted electric guitar. That's what I feel sometimes Radiohead has lost, angriness.

Jamess.Oct 17, 2007I agree with the critic that said it had no climax. A good album that would have been excellent if it contained even one obvious single. I was left waiting for something to happen most of the album.

dj=rivDec 12, 20075 out of 5 for the means, plus 4 out of 5 for my first few impressions, plus so very much respect and thanks from me equals 7/10?

lawrenceh.Oct 22, 2007Not bad, overhyped though. Aren't these songs outtakes from REM's Automatic for the People, recycled through laptop wizardry?

Sep 5, 2010It's a great album, but I think Radiohead has done better. I like how it's much different from what they've done before, but I hope they go back to melting faces on the next record

Oct 13, 2012Near the beginning I didn't really like it and felt that radiohead had begun to shy away from it's the bends/ok computer beginning(pablo honey didn't really count for most fans) but it started to grow on me as it progressed.

Awards & Rankings
-
In Rainbows really does present Radiohead at their most full-blooded and confident.
-
Overall, the material feels more human, more honest, more assured.
-
Happily, In Rainbows is pretty, pretty good.
