Yeah it definitely felt like a very, very "I'm in a depressed place" album. Maybe the MOST depressive album I've ever heard, actually. Which is not to say I don't like my fair share of depressive music, because I do. But holy shit, nobody can say Kid A didn't commit to the vibe. Which I guess I can respect it for. It committed very hard to being exactly the album it was--even I can tell that.

I DO really like a couple of Radiohead songs, but they're the hits, so. *shrug*

Ultimately I thought about this a bit more after making this secret (plus I read the Kid A wiki), and it's actually kind of true that I "don't get" the album--but only because I'm pretty lyrics-focused, and Kid A is barely about the lyrics at all. I mean, Yorke himself said that most of the lyrics aren't meant to have any sort of particular meaning; they're basically just collaged together to augment the mood/vibe of the track. And that...yeah, it's totally fair to say I don't get that. The parts of Kid A that are speaking my language aren't really saying much (by design!), while the parts that apparently are very profound and moving are speaking a language I have limited facility with.
