How long does it take to listen to Radiohead's discography?

All nine Radiohead studio albums play in a little over seven hours. The catalogue is famously discontinuous in style — Kid A follows OK Computer by three years and shares almost no sonic vocabulary with it — so a continuous listen is a poor way to experience it and a common way to attempt it. In Rainbows was released in 2007 on a pay-what-you-want basis, the first major act to do so. Nine albums in roughly thirty years is a slow rate by the standards of every other entry here.
