Packages like that are a shame for what they are in the first place: protection of the media. Everyone who cares about the condition of the CD, should avoid such package rubbish. This is shit for collectors & fans, music lovers are far better off with an ordinary jewel case.

Edited 20 years agoI'd have to say this is my favorite Radiohead album as well. Their use of samples, synth and FX in this album really provides a rich tapestry of sound to enjoy. My favorite track has to be "Sail to the Moon". Great chill track. Quality Album.

<b>The Concept:</b>
"Hail To The Thief" is the slogan taken from anti-Bush campaign, so from the very beginning you may have a guess that this is an album with a very strong political implication. And you won't be wrong. Songs like "A Punchup At A Wedding" and "Myxomatosis" are all about that. That's the first reason why I love this album - Radiohead are not afraid to sing about what they think.
<b>The Songs:</b>
Great! Great songs... Really. ALL OF THEM! This is the best alternative rock album I've ever heard! I love it even more than "OK Computer". For me, it is definitely the best Radiohead album ever. Personal favourites are: "2+2=5", "Sit Down. Stand Up.", "There There", "A Punchup At A Wedding" and "A Wolf At The Door".
"Backdrifts", "The Gloaming" and "Myxomatosis" prove that Radiohead is not a rock band. It's an alternative rock band, electronic band, experimental rock band... Anything but rock band. The songs is the second reason why I love this album.
<b>The Package:</b>
Needless to say, that this package is stunning! Even if the album wasn't good, I'd give 5/5 just for the package like this. It contains booklet with lyrics and a huge "map" (approximately 20" x 20").
Great albums come in great packages, and that's the third reason why this album is great.
