So, do yourself a favour – take the time to kick back one evening with a drink of your choice and discover or reappraise this unfairly overshadowed album, whose engulfing moodscapes took their time to work their magic on me. However, when appreciated on their own merits, that second half is equally as adventurous as its older sibling and as just as powerful. To listen to these albums back-to-back reaffirms that they fully work as two halves of the same musical statement. KID A MNESIA es un espacio onírico febril, un edificio construido con el arte, las criaturas, las palabras y las grabaciones de Kid A y Amnesiac de Radiohead, descubiertos tras unos 20 años, remontados y provistos de una nueva vida mutante. The reissue repackaged the two albums together, and it made perfect sense. It’s worth noting that ‘Amnesiac’ was cannily rereleased in 2021 to mark the 20-year anniversary – sweet Paranoid Android, I’m old – of both ‘Kid A’ and ‘Amnesiac’, under the title ‘KID A MNESIA’. In what could be viewed as an innovative use of digital space or a frightening realization of themes explored on Kid A and Amnesiac, Radiohead have announced the KID A MNESIA EXHIBITION, a. Radiohead and Epic Games Publishing are proud to present KID A MNESIA EXHIBITION: an upside-down digital/analog universe created from original artwork by Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood and sound design by Nigel Godrich to commemorate 21 years of Radiohead's Kid A and Amnesiac albums. However, I always enjoy revisiting (and revising) my preconceptions. Generally favorable reviews based on 31 Ratings Your Score 0 Summary: KID A MNESIA is a fevered dream-space, an edifice, built from the art & creatures, words & recordings of Radiohead’s Kid A and Amnesiac uncovered from 20 odd years ago, reassembled and given new mutant life. Granted, this isn’t the hottest of takes and I’m not putting myself out there too much – it’s not like I’m defending 2011's ‘The King of Limbs’ here. But they’re two minor hiccups in an otherwise claustrophobic confection. Which leads me to the conclusion that ‘Amnesiac’ is without a doubt Radiohead’s most underrated album. By Daniel Kreps SeptemRadiohead, 2001 Redferns Radiohead have finally detailed their upcoming reissue focusing on the sessions that birthed the band’s dual masterpieces, 2000’s Kid A. Yes, a track like ‘Pulk Pull Revolving Doors’ feels unfinished and the re-recording of ‘Kid A’’s ‘Morning Bell’, while pleasant, definitely contributes to that feeling many continue to cling onto – that of an album that is a companion piece rather than its own unique beast.
