Thou shalt not put musicians and recording artists on ridiculous pedestals
no matter how great they are or were.

The Beatles - Were just a band.
Led Zepplin - Just a band.
The Beach Boys - Just a band.
The Sex Pistols - Just a band.
The Clash - Just a band.
Crass - Just a band.
Minor Threat - Just a band.
The Cure - Were just a band.
The Smiths - Just a band.
Nirvana - Just a band.
The Pixies - Just a band.
Oasis - Just a band.
Radiohead - They're just a band.
Bloc Party - Just a band.
The Arctic Monkeys - Just a band.
The Next Big Thing - Just a band!

that song's so tight

and true

Yuh. So, im curious now, what are you suggesting we, on music forum, do? Merely leave a post saying 'good' if we appreciate an artist or album? To some people a band is more than 'just a band'.

I'm just saying people need to stop worshipping the ground Radiohead walks on. They're not the saviors of music.

Sneer · 10-31-2007, 04:35 PM

Nobody is saying they are. There are however a lot of radiohead fans on this forum as you can see and a fan by definition is ' An ardent devotee; an enthusiast'. So im afraid youre stuck with it.

your opinion doesn't even count: you're from England

(of course you're gonna like Radiohead)

Not everyone from England likes Radiohead and making generalisations like that is just lazy posting.
