Free Music Notes for Hail to the ThiefFree Music Review: Despite What's Been Said, This Is A Great Album!!!I don't know where this album ranks in terms of the band's entire catalog, but I absolutely love it. I've loved it from day one (yes, I bought it on the day it came out). I didn't feel compelled to write a review on Hail To The Thief until I started reading magazine articles about In Rainbows. I agree that In Rainbows is a masterpiece in its own right, but Thief is a great album as well. It infuriates me that even the band is starting to second guess the genius of this album. In all the interviews I've read the band basically apologizes for this album, which is ridiculous. It's actually an insult to people who were truly moved by the material on HTTT. Until IR was released, this was the best album of the new millenium. Don't listen to the naysayers. This album is a wonderful mixture of the old guitar driven Radiohead (The Bends, Ok Computer) and the more adventurous, experimental Radiohead (Kid A, Amnesiac). No band should apologize for the work they produced in the past. This is the space they inhabited at that time and this how they chose to express themselves. For me, Hail To The Thief actually confirmed, in my mind, that Radiohead is the greatest musical phenomenon since The Beatles. I'll never forget when I saw the band perform live during the HTTT tour. They opened with There There and it totally blew me away. I implore the band to stop soiling my memories with negative vibes. This is a great album and a worthy addition to the Radiohead catalog.
