Chris Martin is Thom Yorke. You've never seen them together in the same room, have you?Juice Terry said:

They're like the kings new clothes - loads of people think they're brilliant, but for me there's nothing there. I've just never been able to see anything remotely likeable or interesting about them.

Everything in Its Right Place
Idioteque
Pyramid Song
You and Whose Army?
I Might Be Wrong
Knives Out
Morning Bell
Like Spinning Plates
Motion Picture Soundtrack
I reckon
Kid A works on its own and is a masterpiece, plus you threw away LIAGH which is a sin. You sir are a fool. *throws down velvet glove*

It's a double album, just released on two seperate dates. Treat it as such, and everyones happy.

I never have got them, I actually think they make rather miserable music which just doesn't cut the mustard with me.
What is it about them? I like quite a broad spectrum of music, but this lot I just cannot listen to.
Yet they seem to be the 'best band in the world'
I'm not surprised at all that you don't like them.
You're always far too chirpy on here.

I think they are decent, but not the maestros that some people think.
My personal favourite is "hail to the thief" but I know most radiohead fans don't like that one.

I actually really like HTTT. Not as much as OK Computer, In Rainbows, The Bends or Kid A but more so than Amnesiac or Pablo Honey.

In conclusion then, some people like them, others don't.

Dystopian lushness. In Rainbows seems to me like the culmination of a range of experiments - its a distillation of everything they do so well. And the box set is perfect if I ever go on Desert Island Discs I can choose that.

I used to love them and have all their albums up to, and including, Kid A, I haven't really listened to them after that accept their single releases, I think it's great they do their own thing and seam to develop every album but it's not really my cuppa tea anymore.

Thanks for the watch this Firky - btw were you aware of the theory that if tracks from OKC and IR are played alternately there is a some kind of link - some music professor has noted this - something about chord progressions and lyric linkage - not had time to experiment to see for myself but its an event I am anticipating with Radiogeekness joy.
