It is easily his best album, a seminal moment in twangrock, and I like that I don't have to TRY to appreciate it, like I (and most people I expect, despite claims to the contrary) still do with Kid A. Listen, you can love a manatee if you spend enough time looking into its eyes. I'm down with The Moon and Antarctica, but I would even take Nixon by Lambchop or Figure 8 by Elliot Smith over Kid A. Sorry Radiohead leg humpers. Not that anyone cares, but my best album of 2000 would be Steve Earle’s Transcendental Blues.

I remember when Kid A came out. I remember sitting on my bed listening to it over and over and wondering if I was the victim of some horrific joke. Where were the guitars? Where were the freaking guitars? I felt betrayed and angry. Ten years later I love it, but it took a while. Modest Mouse, however, french kissed me with an album I could listen to all the way through over and over. I was already a fan, now I could get some traction peddling my passion to my friends listening to Top 40 blah. Nice work Jeff, can't wait to hit aught one.

I always get a little frustrated with the 'sell out' label being applied to bands that become more popular. I love Modest Mouse & have since the first time I heard 'Birds vs. Worms'. I'm evangelical about bands I love & want as many people as possible to love them too. Besides, if the artists can't eat, they stop making music & no one likes that. Go Isaac!

It's not even the best Radiohead album of the decade... but I expect that to be a topic for a later post. :) I agree 100% Perlon.

All the time they spent listening to the Warp back catalogue paid in spades with that song. Its a brilliant album, easily the best from the list of 2000 but not the best of the decade, in spite of Pitchfork constantly creaming their pants over it... Idioteque was clearly THE tune on Kid A.
