Probably not a popular band in these parts, but I'd put them top five bands of the past 25 years
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

Ditto.

Re: Radiohead
Probably the greatest British group of the 2000's, from Kid A onwards. Most of the albums before that are "meh" at best imo
The Bends is one of the most overrated albums of all time in my book. OK Computer could have been great, several great tracks, but has more filler than you'd think from it's reputation.

Kid A is quite possibly a Desert Island Album for me.

I've always wanted to like Radiohead but I can't. I've tried.

Re: Radiohead
What a proposterous thing to say. I have never come across anybody as presumptious and consistently wrong as you are, especially when YOU are telling ME what I think.

Why don't you tell us what you think about the new Beyonce album?
Re: Radiohead
It was a joke. Your list favors the less guitar driven tracks. Settle down

Re: Radiohead
Yeah, I thought it was a joke straight away. I mean it's so funny it just jumps out of the screen and the tears are literally streaming down my face I'm laughing so much.Zip City wrote:It was a joke. Your list favors the less guitar driven tracks. Settle down
You never told us what you think of the new Beyonce btw?
Re: Radiohead
Radiohead does not create filler.
OK Computer is possibly the best anything, ever.
Don't talk your sass. Go listen to it (preferably on vinyl, at volume). It's perfect.

Re: Radiohead
OKC a 6/10 is lunacy. One of the best guitar albums ever.
ain't no static on the gospel radio
Re: Radiohead
OK Computer might be my favorite album from the 1990's

OK Computer is solid gold 10/10.
(So is Kid A mind you)
Re: Radiohead
Kid A is really good. How to Disappear Completely is top 3 Radiohead songs. Brilliant

Re: Radiohead
This thread has been good for me. I have buddies that swear by Radiohead and I am only really into In Rainbows. I have listened to four albums today. Funny, I could just never "get into it" but I have a better understanding now. Still not my favorite band, but there is a lot of good there.
Re: Radiohead
Not my favorite band by a long shot but I dig them and I don't think you can argue that they're not one of the most important bands of the century thus far. I love OK Computer, Kid A, Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief and usually break them out in late fall/winter. I haven't listened to anything post-HTTT though.
E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle.
Re: Radiohead
I really like "The Bends". That album rocks & has a lot of good songs. Like most of their stuff even though they get a little artsy at times. I saw them very early on, 1st US tour, in a very small club. You could tell they had big potential.

Re: Radiohead
It means they're borderline pretentious. I don't have a problem with that if the artists are genuine and talented enough, which Radiohead certainly are.Zip City wrote:I read this all the time and don't know what it meanschuckrh wrote:.

I think Jason Isbell summed it up perfectly when he tweeted "I hope Radiohead never stops taking themselves too seriously".

Re: Radiohead
I don't get it. And by that I don't mean I disagree, I mean I don't understand.
They can be a little dour. Is that pretentious?
