Radiohead
Soidanae:
I've got Amnesiac. It's pretty good music to do other things to, but I don't think I could actually listen to it...and I listen to most things.
destructotroninator:
Anyone bashing Radiohead based on Creep or any single album they have released should shut up. Mostly because their albums each have different feels to them, and it is impossible to judge them based on one song/album/etc.
Also anyone saying they are bland and unoriginal should shut up. Because, uh, they are pretty original. Have you heard most of the crap being put out over the past decade? Radiohead > probably around 95% of all music in the last decade.
I really don't care who hates them and whatever because honestly expecting everyone to splooge over them is pretty ridiculous. I hated them until about a year ago so whatever. There are still quite a few bands that beat Radiohead with sticks in my book. But most bands are a lot worse than Radiohead. So let's not say they are teh suck, yes?

This is why I never bothered to check out either of those bands in the first place. I don't care about the damned symbology of a band's lyrics. As a matter of fact, I very rarely care about lyrics to begin with. I'm probably breaking some indie law by saying this, but I really don't care what a song is about, as long as my ears think it's nice. When people start being all pretentious about what it means, I lose interest.
normz:
I resent what's being said about Tool and Radiohead fans being pretentious ..... I'm a HUGE Tool fan and I don't mind Radiohead (their alright but not fantastic) and I don't go around quoting Maynard every five seconds 'dude he said we should think for ourselves and question authority like I can totally understand what he means' *sigh* and luckily most tool friends who I know aren't like that either so NEH
Garcin:
But that pretention comment is (unintentionally?) hilarious considering the exchange between Decklin, sjbrot, and MilkmanDan which immediately precedes it. You guys seriously crack me up.
The correct response to be called pretentious is, of course: "Pretentious? Moi?"
