That is a completely understandable position.  I was really commenting on the general direction the thread had taken than your post.  I remember thinking Kid A was absolute garbage the first time I heard it.

I don't think this.  You have taken some things I said and added meaning to them in a way that was by no means intended.

--- Quote from: Joseph on 29 Sep 2009, 14:53 ---Because basically everyone has heard Kid A, if they are interested in modern alternative music.  Things We Lost in the Fire is a much less popular album, generally, and I would be much less likely to assume that someone had listened to it.  If the person was a regular on this forum, given how much Low is touted here, I'd expect them to be familiar with the record.  However, many people voting here have low post counts, and I know absolutely nothing about them.  The people with lower post counts in this thread seem to be voting for Radiohead more frequently than people with higher post counts.  I can only hope, if they are voting for Radiohead, that they have at least given the other album a chance.

I am not sure I get how this fits into the joke

then again I didn't get the first joke either so maybe you are just way too clever for me.

I figured I might as well attempt some justification off the top of my head.  I felt that the line of this post which you left out might make it clear that I really wasn't trying to make a big deal of it all.

I like Radiohead.  I really do.  I think they've made some great songs, and recorded some great albums.  For a while, Kid A was one of my favourite records.  I don't like it nearly as much nowdays, but I still think it is pretty great.

dude I'm just stylin' on you you don't gotta care/justify your actions

I mean I'm basically just bein' a dick cause I'm mad Discovery beat Since I Left You

I mean even though nearly half the people voted for the Avalanches I look at this thread and think "this thread does not like the Avalanches" so now I gotta rough up everyone who posts in it.

We're not so different, you and I. Just because you're a Jet and I'm a Shark doesn't mean we can't both agree that Yo La Tango should still beat Funeral.

By the way putting on my LP of Since I Left You

RIP AVALANCHES (in this thread)

Your quoting of a post related to my post right after I posted lead me to believe otherwise. Thanks for clarification!

Post post post so many posts in that sentence.
