[mvanwinkle]

you are asking this to the wrong people. It is almost like going to a church and asking "who thinks jesus is overated?"

[thatfinkleygirl]

^^^ absolutely correct.

[unknowndrummer66]

in rainbows did suck tho

[humanoid]

Radiohead has been my favorite band for over a decade now, but I can understand how people could think they're overrated, because of the obsessiveness and near religious fervor some of us display when discussing Radiohead

that being said, i think they're absolutely worthy of most of the praise they garner

[bobert]

Some people just find unbridled genius inspiring. it's not for everyone, and the world could always use more Fall Out Boy fans, so don't beat yourself up you don't get it.

i didnt know screeching and synthesized beats was considered unbridled genius

[TeamCoachellaHellYeah]

where is the radiohead option?

[zenidogx]

could Arcade Fire ever be better than Radiohead? discuss. i mean, Arcade Fire hasn't recorded a Pablo Honey . . .


that should keep this entire board busy until the lineup comes out.

correct, they have recorded multiple pablo honey's

[thatfinkleygirl]

arcade fire only have three albums ... well, two albums and an ep. radiohead have seven, not counting their live album or hits compilation. i don't think it's a topic worth getting into until arcade fire have a more extensive discography to critique.

[Agent Orange]

Raidohead=Brilliant
As much as I like Arcade Fire, there isn't a band out right now that is on their level!

Not to mention B sides and other random tracks.

They just have 2 and a half albums' worth of good songs and the rest is really boring. This is true.

[Robototron]

Of course they're overrated.

[momof5]

I have tried,really tried to lie Radiohead since I can't be that cool if I don't but I can't get it! I do really like Arcade Fire-them I get!

[DaKINe]

The world needs to get rid of Fall Out Boys and their fans...lame!!!

Wow, you have terrible taste in music. Pretty stunning actually.

says the guy going to an animal collective show tonight

He's right. It's pretty bad. There are some good ones in there, but since you were asked who your favorite bands are and that's what you come up with... not only did you mention Fall Out Boy, but it's just stunningly bad.

[unknowndrummer66]

so i guess its safe to say nobody here are musicians

real musicians

[unknowndrummer66]

also he said what are bands i like not necessarily my favorites




also would it help if i like bands that didnt have a major label behind them?
if only 23 people had heard of them instead 23 million
bands that focus more on lyrics than music?

[BlackSwan]

so i guess its safe to say nobody here are musicians

real musicians

<-musician (real).

[unknowndrummer66]

what are your favorite bands?

[psycobetabuckdown]

Radiohead are real musicians, fantastic musicians. Are the Pharcyde musicians? I guess whoever does the beats, but I'm not sure that all four of them are involved in that. What's your point anyway? Just say what you don't like or don't get about Radiohead instead of instigating arguments.

[bobert]

Hah, thanks for reminding me about my superior taste in music and the amazing show I'll be attending tonight. I also have a huge cock - God it's good to be alive!!!!

[BlackSwan]

what are your favorite bands?

Radiohead... Talking Heads... Boards of Canada. Mouse on Mars is up there too, Thievery Corporation as well.

Currently, the band I have been listening to the most is Elbow and they are slowly climbing my favorite band list, but they don't have the same history with me as the above.

You're wrong.

What to you is a real musician?

[thom cobain]

as popular as they are, radiohead is still underrated. consider how overrated everything else is (see saturday headliner).

it's the music of the times and people still don't get it. it should be more popular than it is, but there are many haters who just consider it "out there."

why is the world jam packed with such idiots?

okay computer, radioheads nod to the future.

[zajaa]

[zajaa]

btw i think radiohead are a big enough household name that calling their fans "hipsters" is a few decades late.

[Drewski27]

in rainbows did suck tho

you should be crucified.

good luck with that.

[BlackSwan]

Radiohead/Portishead co-headlining world tour 2010.

[Drewski27]

i would sell my soul for a ticket to that tour.

[BlackSwan]

I would sell your soul for a ticket to that tour too.

thom and i used to play mini golf together every other saturday. i too wish less people liked them so thom wouldn't get so paranoid about people invading his privacy.

[Drewski27]

thom yorke is going to drink your blood and then write a masterpiece about it.

[lickety_spit]

given the title, do you think it was thom's goal for his vocals to sound as if they were recorded while he was lying down, half asleep on amnesiac?
i dare you to tell me you didn't listen to that for the first time and think "...the fuck...?"
and mean it.
like, face in the couch cushions, wonky-eyed and drooling.
that being said, amnesiac's probably my second favorite radiohead album.

[Drewski27]

like spinning plates is by far my favorite. i especially love it when he plays it on piano on I Might Be Wrong. beautiful.

[hobomilitia]

burn in hell eat shit and die.


: )

[Drewski27]

what?

[unknowndrummer66]

you're an idiot

what cause i dont have my head up my ass?

because creep was so epic that by default everything else is just as good or better

everyone here knows in rainbows sucked, but are too afraid to admit it

[zajaa]

wtf

what are you talking about? by default everything else is just as good? Radiohead is not amazing by default...maybe if you actually listened to the music you would think different becuase i can obviously tell that you have never taken the time to really enjoy their talents

AND in rainbows did not suck. you suck.

i have listened to all their albums multiple times, even with an open mind and low expectations, but still not doing anything for me



and the whole default comment was suppose to include ok computer not just creep






people like radiohead just because its different

[thom cobain]

you're an idiot.

i like it because it's great and it speaks to me. and yes, it's different.

in rainbows is beautiful and as good as anything they've released.

underrated because it is still ahead of it's time. and you don't get it.
