Postal Service always pissed me off.
How anyone listens to Radiohead is beyond me. Those whining/dragging vocals are just awful.

Most of the stuff from Radiohead.
Absolutely not

That is your subjective opinion. Just like any "list" is someone's(or a group's) opinion. The only way to really quantify and validate opinions like these is to take in account how influential the album was to music in general, and how many people positively received the album at the time it was released, and over the span of time. Both of albums you mentioned check those boxes.

Uh, yeah. Read the thread title. Everything about "what's the best, what's overrated" is opinion.

I liked them, but they are definitely not overly acclaimed...
I mean didn't they win an award for best new Indie band at Cannes or some shite? I Thought I heard that. Could be wrong.
