Kid A is my favourite album ever, it's so well composed! Love The Eraser too, his live performance of The Clock on Jools Holland was amazing!

<ok> How to Disappear Completely, never fails to haunt the **** out of me. But at the same time, I get absorbed by the beauty of it. Which, is such a unique thing to be able to do. Kid A is Underrated, and in my opinion is superior to OK Computer.

I do have to say though, Kid A is one of them albums you have to listen to at least once while high. It's just a whole new different experience, and it sort of feels like it is how it should be experienced if you get me.

I agree, while I like OK Computer, I find it overrated compared to the other guitar orientated albums like Hail To The Thief. How To Disappear Completely is just amazing. Although it's not Radiohead, have you heard John Mayer's cover of Kid A the song? It's actually really good.

I am yet to get high and listen to the album, might have to try that now <ok>

You should! Like I say, its a gives a totally different perspective to an album. Sigur Ros, are also another band that when listening to them high, are ****ing incredible. I listened to Saeglopur awhile back, and I got a falling sensation. Was brilliant though <ok>

I've only listened to Aphex Twin and Burial high, Come To Daddy **** me up and Burial just gave me some weird tingly sensation. I'll deffo give Kid A a listen like that soon, along with a few other albums similar to it <ok>
 
Early morning lads.

My excitement for tomorow is overpowering my need for sleep.

Might have to whip out the classic Simpsons boxsets. Never too old.

Aphex Twin Xtal is a good listen while high.

But, you should deffo give Sigur Ros - Tak, and Exit Calm (self titled) albums a listen if you're on the ole Joints. Very enjoyable.

Will take your advice for next time then!

Aaaah yes! The early seasons, uptill season 10 genius!

Yep. Season 10 onwards is, on the whole, is painfully bad.

The first 8 seasons are genius (9 is good, but was the start of it's downfall). The humour, the emotion, the satire, the social commentary - it's all incredible. Such a shame it got so bad at points. :(

What made The Simpsons so special was the ability to go from being funny, to emotional straight away. One episode, that did actually have me on the verge of tears was Homer telling the story of Maggie being born, and why there was no pictures of her in the Family photo album. And, right at the end there you see Homers desk at the plant with a montage of Maggie covering up a sign, to spell out "Do It For Her". Such emotion from a cartoon like that, is unique. Which makes it all the more sad to see Simpsons becoming crap. They should end it, before they start to destroy the brand.

I've never really liked Futurama, at it's best i've found it watchable but still not good or funny.

I find it entertaining. Especially Bender! Ive never really found American Dad funny. Its just Family Guy, with different characters. Which is also dying a slow slow painful death.
