![]() One of the new highlights: “If You Say the Word,” a previously unheard gem that got shelved. As Thom Yorke confessed in Rolling Stone, “I made everyone’s life almost impossible.” And in classic Radiohead style, they drove each other mad, doing every tiny detail the hard way. As Kid Amnesiae shows, they were overflowing with ideas, with a “what does this button do?” spirit. The premise was simple: wildly successful rock stars decide to rip it up and start again, trading their guitars for synthesizers they don’t quite know how to play. Result: two classics, with plenty of brilliant music left over. It’s the sound of crazed geniuses running wild in the studio, ready to try anything. Kid A Mnesia tells the whole insane story over three discs - both original albums plus Kid Amnesiae, a collection of outtakes, B-sides, unreleased experiments. ![]() Radiohead revisit these sessions in Kid A Mnesia, a stunning collection making the case for both albums as twin halves of the same musical statement. But Amnesiac has become weirdly underrated, overshadowed by its more famous sibling, to the chagrin of diehard Amnesiacs. Over the years, the Kid A l egend just keeps growing - Radiohead’s most legendary classic. ![]() The ultimate one-two punch: Radiohead made two space-rock masterpieces at the same sessions, and they saved the best stuff for the sequel. Read anything published about cocaine in the 1970s and you will find the word “non-addictive.” And when Radiohead released Amnesiac in the summer of 2001, many fans thought it was infinitely better than Kid A. People thought tomatoes were fatal to eat, leeches were quality health care, Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. For centuries, the human race believed that the sun revolved around the earth.
