People who dislike Radiohead are stupid

Hear hear!

I like Radiohead quite a bit, actually. Some of their stuff is definitely a 'miss' for me - but most of it is great IMO.

I listened to Paranoid Android, thought it was the greatest fucking song I ever heard, went and listened to a bunch of their other shit, and soon realized that they didn't make any other songs as good as Paranoid Android. :(

I can just feel sorry for you guys that haven't been blessed by being born in one of the balkan countries. Thinking that Radiohead is second coming of Christ LMAO

You don't know what real masterpiece is.

Example (be prepared for nintendocore):



Crude lyrics translation by an unsung hero:

English:

Japanese machine 500 cc
When it's driven by balkan man, real macho man
Japanese machine 500 cc
When it's driven by balkan man, real macho man.

Kawasaki, Kawasaki when speeding on a highway
Every girl wants to drive it for at least one minute
Kawasaki, Kawasaki when speeding on a highway
Every girl wants to drive it for at least one minute.

All women love it, little girls even more (lmao)
Because with him, breathing is always; always easier
All women love it, little girls even more
Because with him, breathing is always; always easier.

Kawasaki, Kawasaki when speeding on a highway
Every girl wants to drive it for at least one minute
Kawasaki, Kawasaki when speeding on a highway
Every girl wants to drive it for at least one minute

Every girl loves to; to ride it for a long time because his driving, every girl enjoys it.
Every girl loves to; to ride it for a long time because his driving, every girl enjoys it.

Kawasaki, Kawasaki (Not every guy can do it)
Kawasaki, (It's real cool when it's driving it chad Boro)

Radiohead fans come off as self entitled assholes. I like a few songs but the most of there shit just makes me want to kill myself. Mind numbing noise that gets praised as high art.

All the best music is typically sad or angry imho

What do you enjoy to listen to?

Best music invokes a deep emotional response. People's mileage may vary, and depend on mood and setting. No reason to say best - though I think the intent of the comment is that sitting around listening to radiohead while having a BBQ is a shitty place to reside.

Here’s mine:
In Rainbows
The Bends
Ok Computer
A Moon Shaped Pool
Kid A
Hail To the Thief
King of Limbs
Amnesiac
Pablo Honey

The Beatles are the greatest rock band of all time and Radiohead is probably the best band since them. Both bands have a similar musical progression in growth in The Bends, Ok Computer, and Kid A; Rubber Soul, Revolver, and Sgt. Pepper.

I don't quite know how to explain this but bearing witness to radiohead during the OK COMPUTER era - the album release, the live music, that period in the history of music - it was something magical that can never be replicated.

It wasn't just the music, it was that period in human history where we got to truly enjoy the feast of the liberation that started in the 60s and 70s.

If you're fresh to Radiohead, then start with the Bends and OK COMPUTER including all of the b-side and live content from that point in the discography.

I distinctly remember leaving housepartys to sit outside listening to Radiohead (drunk/stoned which elevates your resonation) So when I got diagnosed with autisme 15 years later those moments made far more sense hahaha ffs

I wouldn’t say they compare to the Beatles but they have enough good songs with flashes of brilliance across the years to be labeled great for sure.

Btw none of these songs should be tried on through your phone. Cliche but w/e

That's true of most music

I also dont recommend listening to this through a phone fwiw



You can tell a lot about a person based upon the audio equipment they keep
