Album # 1 & 2

Decided to listen to In Rainbows by Radiohead while I was in the gym today. My initial reaction is that it is too mellow and slow-paced for a workout music. It's a nice listening or background music, but not really for my taste in the gym.

The other album I listened to is Insomniatic by Aly & AJ (ROFL). Definitely a pop album for your younger generation. Even though the subject of most of the song are about relationships (sort of), it does have some fast paced song that would work out well in my "gym music".

In Rainbows has been in heavy rotation for me, personally. I play the "O1 10" Playlist, which is basically OK Computer and In Radiohead intermixed together... like this ...

1. Airbag - OK Computer
2. 15 Step - In Rainbows
3. Paranoid Android - OK Computer
4. Bodysnatchers - In Rainbows
5. Subterranean Homesick Alien - OK Computer
6. Nude - In Rainbows
7. Exit Music (For a Film) - OK Computer
8. Weird Fishes/Arpeggi - In Rainbows
9. Let Down - OK Computer
10. All I Need - In Rainbows
11. Karma Police - OK Computer
12. Fitter Happier - OK Computer
13. Faust Arp - In Rainbows
14. Electioneering - OK Computer
15. Reckoner - In Rainbows
16. Climbing up the walls - OK Computer
17. House of Cards - In Rainbows
18. No Surprises - OK Computer
19. Jigsaw Falling into place - In Rainbows
20. Lucky - OK Computer
21. Videotape - In Rainbows
22. The Tourist - OK Computer

You'll be surprised how well the albums go together. Some people think this was done on purpose. Sure, it's not really workout music, but still good shit.

Oops, I said OK Computer and Radiohead intermixed. Obviously I meant OK Computer and In Rainbows. Yeah.
