Well, yeah Axel Rose does blow. 🙂

Argh, I put the Bends on my computer, but when I play any of the songs it sounds really scratchy - anybody know how to fix it? I can't handle it.
put ok computer on instead 🙂

I think it was, it got tons of airtime - hell everybody I know has heard of Modest Mouse, but ONLY knows that song. Excluding my friends that know music very well, of course.

Actually only "The Bends" and "High and Dry" sound scratchy. Which kind of sucks anyhow, those are two of my favorites off the album.

Maybe I will put OKC on though, it's awesome 😛

1 popular song doesn't make them a popular band though, where are they now?

I still say they're popular, I mean Radiohead doesn't get any radio play (Minus Creep...) but they're still extrememly popular.

Where are they now? About to be listened to by me - that's where. 🙂

btw radiohead don't get much airplay because to many people think they suck, not pleasing to the masses songs.

Amnesiac's my least favorite actually - I haven't heard PH - strange actually, everybody told me it was the worst so I never listened to it. 😕

Anyhow..

OKC>TB>KidA/HTT (That one's too close to call)>Amnesiac

More people think Britney Spears sucks than think Radiohead sucks, but she gets LOTS of airplay.

its not their best but worth a listen, creep is amazing. funny enough i didn't really like amnesiac or kid a but amnesiac is one of my favorites now.

yeah but most of the people who like spears like similar sorts of music (pop rubbish) but radiohead fans differ in tastes of music, a popular radio station isn't going to play a band that a lot of rock fans don't even like never mind the pop tarts.

Right - Sorry.

I didn't read enough of the thread - just the title. If people are posting Radiohead and Nirvana, this thread is not discussing "best rock bands ever" - it is discussing what are our favorite bands. Different question.

They are certainly good bands and entertaining to be sure, but please. Their biggest claim to fame was they caught a break and were signed. There are hundreds of bands as good as Radiohead, that just never caught a break. Just spend some time in the clubs of any large city with a music scene. You will hear plenty of bands better than Nirvana and as good as Radiohead.

Read the whole thread so that you understand. I think somebody said that there isn't good music around today, then PawnFondler said there was, and then I backed him up with Radiohead as a support.

They are my favorite though. 😛

Woah. Woah.


Woah...


Woah......

NOBODY is better than Radiohead. Nobody.

Although Modest Mouse is pretty good....

But still. You're wrong, you won't find anybody as good as Radiohead in a club.
