an angel Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 The first time I ever heard of Radiohead was in some youtube video's comments three years ago. Never heard of them before that. I'M NOT EVEN JOKING D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notion Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 My older cousin used to love Radiohead when he was in high school. That's kinda how I discovered them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyAndy136 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I got into Radiohead through a friend, but not in the way you'd think; a certain member of this forum who was (and still is :D) completely obsessed with Coldplay was kinda wanting to get into some "similar" bands (a term I use kinda loosely), such as Radiohead or U2. So, I got OK Computer, as I had a slight knowledge that it's considered to be their best album, but also one of the greatest albums of all time. I didn't really like the album at first, and deleted a bunch of songs (I basically kept Airbag, Paranoid Android, and Exit Music). Then, about a month later, I undeleted them, had another listen to the album, and really enjoyed it. So I got In Rainbows, which I fell in love with. Then The Bends, which, apart from a few tracks, I didn't (and still don't) really enjoy. By this time, I was content with these three albums, and by the time I decided to get the rest, it was getting pretty close to my birthday/Christmas. So I didn't bother. Then I got the collector's edition of Pablo Honey (which is an album I like far more than The Bends. Commence flaming). Then about a fortnight ago I completed my Radiohead LP collection. And now Radiohead is one of my favourite bands. I'm not as completely massively diehard as some of the members of this forum, but I still really like them. Infact, I'm listening to a playlist of Hail to the Thief and Amnesiac on shuffle, because I haven't really given these albums the proper listen. In short, I'm really glad you like these guys... they're definitely worth getting into if you have the time :) ^^^^sweet! Deal is, the band evolves so much between releases that liking or disliking one album says very little about how you'll react to the others. I know extremely few radiohead fans who don't simultaneously loathe and love different radiohead albums. That's true with all good bands, really. I'm yet to meet a Coldplay fan that likes all of their albums equally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms Magpie Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 I got into Radiohead in 2006 or 2007, what now seems like ages ago. I started with a few OKC songs a friend sent to me and I liked them a lot so I eventually got the album. The second album I listened to was Amnesiac (can't even remember why I decided for it) and thought it didn't sound like Radiohead at all. I wasn't even sure I was listening to the same band but I liked what I heard nonetheless and decided to get moar albums. :wideeyed: Can't say I'm the #1 fan, so on scale of 1 to 10 I'm probably 8-9? I've been listening to other bands and been a bit obsessive about them but Radiohead is still my favourite band ever... Also, Talk Show Host is SUCH an amazing song. Good and sexy. :wacky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In regard to their voices sounding similar, it reminds me of a friend of mine from high school. I knew he was always into music, and now it turns out he made his own little record company and fronts a band (although it's Christian rock, so it's not really a "standard" band). He's a fan of Coldplay and Radiohead, and although he hasn't told me so, probably Muse. I watched one of his videos a few months ago and the first thing I thought was that his voice sounded like Matt Bellamy. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
