Anyone else think that Kid A sounds alot like Mingus?

I forget which track. I think National Anthem.

Pepper or whatever (came out when I was 17, was already a fan but this was revelatory, ‘Praise Be!!’ type stuff) is one of those top-10 worthy albums for me. Anything by Mingus, particularly The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady, is also top-10 worthy for me. But, no. Just because there are some skwonking horns on “The National Anthem” doesn’t mean Kid A sounds like Mingus.

It took 15 months to record, pretty long time for a pop/rock band.
