    I was only kidding! It just seems that sometimes your retorts belie your intelligence. On the one hand you said The Bends was bland britrock, then you said it was a fine album! Of course music is your passion, as it is mine. Whilst I can see you wanted to just put that guy's nose out of joint, you kind of come across as mocking those who actually find the album to be special.
    You misunderstood me when I said it was fine. I didn't mean fine like fine wines or fine spices, I mean ok, nice, provoking no particular reaction in me :)

    But otherwise, yes, I agree with you, and mocking is not my aim here. I'm certainly not out to belittle fans of The Bends, only those who seek to do the same to people who don't feel the same.

    Oh, and for thread integrity, Radiohead sound fuck all like U2. They never have.

    Good to see you two have worked things out.

    And despite the disagreements, at least 99% of Radiohead fans will always have one common uniting belief: Pablo Honey is a pack of shit.

    I think I'm one of the few who pretty much likes all of U2s albums.

    As for the article, I can see it with Coldplay and The Killers, but not so much Radiohead. Hell, The Killers steal off everyone, from Springsteen to the Smashing Pumpkins.

    i actually like most of u2s stuff too....the killers do steal to btw
