The Official Radiohead Thread

i don't think adopting Autechre beats behind dour minor chords is anything innovative

i like Radiohead, don't get me wrong, i just don't think anything they did were in any way groundbreaking

Better than anything Radiohead have or will have done.

That was well creepy!

I do think Radiohead can lay claim to having one of the best songs of all time:

...but apart from that, the Beta Band has them out-creeped most of the time!

Still an excellent set of musicians, though.

Just? Eh, it's alright, but I tend to shy away from most of Radiohead's extra-rocky stuff. THat said, Paranoid Android is a total tune.

Well, I thought that was them at their best! I always shiver when I hear that last bit.

The Bends is their best rock tune.

:/

Please. This is decent at best.

Paranoid Android is at least 8 times better in terms of epic rocky songs or whatever, and it's far from their best. Animal Collective have done far better, freakier folk things coming after this band. Hop off it.

Btw, best Radiohead rock tune = 2 + 2 = 5.

I thought I came across slightly sarcastic? That was my intention at least. Although I wouldn't consider that song to be "decent at best". It is great.

OUchhhhhhhh, my bad. I get touchy about my boo. I stick by my claim though.
