i sometimes wish i didnt suck at writing.

You're a good writer. Why the self-doubt? Have you been listening to Radiohead or something?

i guess i still haven't found what i'm looking for…

New contender for post of the week.

Just another thought - how much of this debate is generational as well?

I'm 24 - I feel like Radiohead is probably more significant to my generation than U2 is, just by virtue of what we've grown up with.

But look at any given week - I've cycled through probably 10-12 at this point - and I have yet to see one where U2 is ahead of Radiohead.

As if I didn't cehck on my own…

With the exception of new album week, you likely won't find one because Last.FM does not represent the masses. It represents audiophiles, and there is no doubt in my mind that Radiohead are oogled by audiophiles to a much greater level than U2.

then argument is over!!

people who love music love Radiohead, people who dont, love U2 or Puddle of Mudd, or Boys Like Girls.

That's a low ass blow. For Christ's sake, please don't mention U2 & Puddle Of Mudd/Boys Like Girls in the same sentence.

Ever.

Do you go to the lot & see Yugos sold alongside an Infiniti or Ferrari???? Me thinks not.

BTW, G.G.Dubya - The Director doth thinketh thou is fire today with your divine postings . . .

That's fine. I'm good with that. That's your opinion. Just don't spit out any more warped ass points of view you state as fact & we're good. ;)

Ha! I don't know that I ever stated them as fact - I'm pretty careful to make statements on music fairly subjective. But fair enough - I'll keep my hyperbole to myself.

I know. The doors are closing on my plane here and I will be in LA for the next couple of days. You're on your own here for the rest of the weekend. God speed to you, mate.

I won't let you down, coach. In the clutch, I'm gonna make a play.

It is interesting - I feel sorry for somebody who doesn't love this as much as I do.

the part that bothers me, is i think some ppl, not necessarily ppl on here though, actually refuse to enjoy it just because its a Radiohead album.

oppositional defiant hipsters on this bboard? knee-jerk reactions to anything known to the mainstream? i'm shocked.

CNN doing an I-Report on how much listeners will pay for the new Radiohead record?

Again, that's not about the music itself, that's about the record industry and Radiohead's attempt to change the status quo.

wow, seems that people other than 930 bboardees are qualifying the release of this album as "revolutionary".

paging ggw…

Popular media also engaging in hyperbole..?!!??

I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you….

Make it sound like "Nice Dream"

Radiohead new album: 'In Rainbows' remixes hit the web

Remixers are already tackling Thom Yorke and co's new stuff

Remixes of tracks from 'In Rainbows', the new Radiohead album released yesterday (October 10), have started to appear online.

Dance producer Mojib has remixed 'Videotape', the final track of 'In Rainbows'.


Maybe, they can get someone to remix the album so they sound like actual songs. You know? Those things with hooks? Middle eights? Choruses? Melodies?

Brian

i like to listen to pablo honey every once in a while. just sayin'.

Again, yawn.

i'm starting to think this board is the polar opposite!!!

all this talk of ticket sales and melodies is beginning to make me wonder.

You know, sometimes I think you're completely off your rocker, sonick.

Then you post something like that, and I remember why I always liked you. :D

me thinks radiohead fans should checkout The Hollies "The Air That I Breathe", would have to guess a young Thom Yorke heard this one…

Slightly creepy music video version
