NT has an average of 2 or 3 Radiohead threads a day. I would have never mentioned that I dislike them if it wasn't for the constant "Oh we designer kids all LOVE Radiohead because they are so ALTERNATIVE" bullshit. What's so fucking special about Radiohead?
I don't slag on Britney or Christina or Blink182 because it goes without saying that they are crap. Nobody with the intelligence to open a door listens to that crap.
But Radiohead has got some sort of misplaced "we are so creative and you have to listen to us if you are creative" stamp, and it annoys me.
Take OK Computer. Was it really more than a catchy pop album? It wasn't bad, but was it really enough to "go into history as one of the best bands ever"?
And the albums after OK, they are all wannabe artsy fartsy "let's please the confused kids" albums.
That is called BULLSHIT in my book. At least The Bends was an honest pop album, and not some wannabe alternative crap.
