"Ok Computer" plummets rapidly downhill after, oh, "Airbag", the first track. "Paranoid Android" was a "Bohemian Rhapsody" for the Nineties....and that's not a complement. To be fair, there's some decent tracks on the album -- it just reeks of Progressive Rock, which as we all know, is not a good thing - pay attention, Muse. It's not as turgid as that woeful effort The Verve put out at the same time, though. A bucketful of albums sold on the back of one looping Stones sample.
