Radiohead rocks!!

Sorry, since they shut down a thread for reasons that I can never know, and didn't get a chance to disagree -- I just wanted to say that I love Radiohead and think that they are genius for one of the reasons that makes Pearl Jam genius: they make music the way they want to make music, and not because of what society demands out of em. They play with a sense of passion and musical range that is, quite frankly, rare these days. How many bands can say they've done techno, ballads, 'grunge rock,' jazz, and plain ol rock and roll over a span of a decade? To me, the music speaks for itself, and there are plenty of bands that I hate that the music snobs love. Radiohead is just good. Cory, ya seem like a decent fellow, but damn are you wrong!

I understand why people don't care for them, but I hate the bashing they get. Go bash some crap like Nickelback

so the assumption is that musicians that stay within their own creative box are safe and don't deserve scorn ?
but those that challenge conventions are a threat to either the overall scene or those who bash them's lack of musicial appreciation for something they can't understand because going outside that box scares them

Radiohead sounds like shit to me. That's the only side I can argue. That's what music is. It's graded on how it moves YOU. You can listen all day to that whiny, pussy voiced sissy. That's okay. I can't imagine being soft enough to ride around and listen to that shit ad nauseum. Like I said before, they are different. But different does not make you good. People describe you as "groundbreaking" or "innovative"...give me a fucking break. I think people who like them try to sound eclectic. Half the bands Ed likes suck and deep down he even knows it (Sleater-Kinney, Murder City Devils, etc..).
But hey, to each his own. You're entitled to listen to gay music if you like.
Heart,
Cory
Why would you start was has no end?
Wow. Ok.
Please go make up some more lame ass three chord songs. Those are ever so entertaining.
I just feel that, to the general public, musicians are expected to make the same music over and over again, and not change...and the bands that dare to change get bashed for it. It's just the trend I have noticed.
Three chord songs are lame? Interesting. I wonder if Eddie fucking Vedder is aware of that.
I applaud your efforts but for the last time, I will not engage in gay sex with you. The offer is flattering. Thanks.

I tell you what. You record the motherfucker with your 3 chords and post it. If I'm wrong, I'll bite my left ball off. You're wrong. I just played the goddamned thing.

I'm not gonna give a man any credit who can't get a fucking lyric right.
I'm pretty sure name calling is frowned upon on here.
Post a picture of yourself. I wanna see who's talking to me like that....behind a computer monitor.
Why would you start was has no end?
It's not about the lyric, it's about the tab...and I meant "fucker" the same way Ed does...in a playful way. You honestly think I am gonna insult you over a message board?...please.
That's what I thought.
Why would you start was has no end?
Penis...wow. I won't accept that. Look ladies, I just finished my 4th appraisal report today. I have 3 more to look at and write up tomorrow. I'll leave this childish internet bickering to you kids. If you need me tomorrow, I'll be at the fucking bank cashing checks.
Regards,

Radiohead = music for the weak

The same argument arises when vinyl is mentioned. Who cares if I like it and you don't. I'm not trying to be weird or different, I just like it.
That said, the new Radiohead vinyl is way cooler than the new Radiohead CD!
EDIT**
Now that I think about it, only certain things would bring about the eclectic comment. I guarantee if this argument was about Queens of the Stone Age or some other band who had stayed on the long road to the middle, the word eclectic wouldn't have come up at all. But because it's Radiohead, a band who dared do something different, that's what it all of the sudden becomes.
I betcha an argument on Bjork would bring about the word eclectic too.
I swear if Radiohead did a classical album some fans would claim Radiohead invented orchestra music
If you like 'Kid A' (Personally I hate it) go and explore other artists who have been making this type of music years before Radiohead decided to bring it to the indie kids.
dude, i like your style. i do like radiohead as well though. sorry
edit: unfortunately, since MASTODON spins in my car, you may not call me gay, even though i know you are dying to

I'm assuming that you haven't heard their harder stuff. Try 'Electioneering,' 'Paranoid Android,' 'Bodysnatchers,' and the likes.
