Having listened to Amnesiac multiple more tiems, I can say that it mputs me to sleep.  I enjoy it, but I can't stay awake and listen to it.  Probably won't buy another album.  Simply 'cause there's other stuff.
Hell, I'm still missing the White Album.

--- Quote from: TheLoweringTide ---Honestly I think liking Radiohead is just kind of lazy. To me it says, "I want to appear to enjoy experimental music, but I'm not willing to put the effort into discovering it, so I'll just take what Rolling Stone defines as 'experimental' instead."

Or, y'know, people don't necessarily listen to them because of what other people think, and might actually enjoy their music because they think it sounds good. Wacky!

Man, I will eat you if you suggest anything that reasonable ever again. This is the internet for gods sake. Cut your damn stones off at the door.

I guess you could interpret it in different ways, but to me, that song is just a kick in the balls I can't recover from. It really does diminish the rest of the album for me.

Also, I admit, I am kinda one of these people

Except I like to think I'm not quite shallow enough to want to just appear to like it, and I am interested in finding more experimental shit (also, I guess I resent the Rolling Stones implication a little), except I am definatly an incredibly lazy person. So I ask the question to the inter nets, who would be a good band to listen to if I liked Radiohead, but wanted to branch out into more diverse styles ?

Keep in mind I am not interested in over the top bullshit. It would be nice if what I'm listening to actually resembles a song. And it would probably help if they were at least known enough to make getting shit imported to Australia not a giant kick in the balls.

i find Radiohead also tends to attract some pretentious detractors as well.  the type of people who are Pink Floyd fans but trash Darkside of the Moon and would literally marry (okay maybe not) Piper at the Gates of Dawn.
