The albums divided fans and critics, but after attracted broad acclaim.[iv] [5] At the plough of the decade, Rolling Rock,[6] Pitchfork [7] and the Times [8] ranked Child A the greatest album of the 2000s. Kid A was ranked at number 20 in the 2020 edition of Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list,[9] and Amnesiac at number 320 in the 2012 edition.[10]
