And Van Halen was a better guitar player than all of them combined. Van Halen was still shit music though.. just like muse... I don't care how many virtuoso trills you stuff into an unimaginative whine.. it's still an unimaginative whine that wouldn't even exist if Radiohead didn't happen. I'd rather listen to Kid A and Amnesiac than a Bends knock off even if the ass crawling factor is unmissable.
Just can't stand them or even begin to bring myself to buy and to endure a whole album.. just one of those things I can't help. I'm not the biggest radio head fan either.. just like im not a Pearl Jam fan but Creed still gives me the absolute shits.. theres just something about a band creating a sound and opening the door for a less original band to walk through whilst they move on that shits me... If i can't hear radiohead go back to guitar rock i don't want to hear anything like it at all.. i feel dirty... like eating at a fast food resturant... a hollow copy of a copy.. or like listening to matchbox 20.
*shrugs* im sure they're not all that bad... they obviously put a lot of effort in.. but "Stockholm Syndrome" et al just makes me want to reach for the bends. It's like a record company executive decided to tap into the "radiohead market" now their consumers were left without the same product and Muse were churned out to meet demand. Just like all the fucking bands at the moment being touted as the "new jet" as though Jet weren't a carbon copy of iggy pop and acdc riffs.
I'd rather spend my cash and listening time on something not a recent facsimile of something at any rate. Don't mean to dump too hard.. not that you'd care if i was.. just trying to 'splain
