Rad-Cold Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I am in complete disbelief at the lack of respect for Pink Floyd... especially from Radiohead fans. If it weren't for Floyd, Radiohead would not sound the same at all. And honestly, if you think that a track is bad because of being 25:00, then you either: a)Haven't heard 'Echoes', or b)Have the attention span of a squirrel. Well..i like pink floyd and they are really good! Theyve got some brilliant songs. But i like radiohead more :nice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMagpie Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I got hooked on them off of the Bends. I downloaded the cd off of here. I'd heard it at a friend's party the year before and really really liked it but didn't really check them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenG Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 My opinion on PF I've heard Echoes many times and its pretty good but theres some bits of that song that drag, its not a lack of an attention span on my part its that PF are over zelious, especially here and their instrumental passages just sometimes don't give enough back to the listener. RH are like a less self obsessed and condensed version of PF, instead of making an album of 3 15 minute masterpeices, they create one with 12, that don't all drag at some point. And tell me sometimes PF (looking at Animals and Dark Side) sometimes just stretch their songs for the sake of it. Im looking at Dogs right now with its vocal feedback and dog barking that stretches for minutes unneccasarily. Now PF were a template for RH yes but they hardly stand for anything more than bloated arena rock in this day and age, a phase that rightfully died out. Its like the Beatles or Queen (the cheif inspiration of Muse), they made a style to copy but over time people have improved on this style. The music is still entertaining, but they made mistakes and should be achnolaged as doing so. RH have perfected my definition of good music PF can be boring at times.

ApproximatelyInfinite Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 i got into radiohead through this board. i'd always been vaguely aware of them and thought the bandname was cool, but from OK computer which my friend burned me (saying that it was really, really weird and that she wasn't a huge fan) i wasn't really into anything besides "airbag." then one day i bought pablo honey and the bends at a used CD sale and loved them, but i knew OKC was a bit too far-out for me, as was everything else after it. i gave OKC and beyond two more tries because of the radiohead enthusiasm on coldplaying, but still didn't get it. then i got in rainbows and was BLOWN AWAY. somehow, after hearing IR, everything else that they've ever done clicked into place and made perfect sense. it was like when someone finally explains some scientific concept to you in school in a way you understand and you feel like a moron for not getting it before. though i'm still not enthusiastic about HTTT (besides there there) or amnesiac. i like them, but i'm just not blown away by them, at least not in the same way as all the other albums.

I agree completely with every part of it. Just one more thing: Radiohead triumphs over Pink Floyd in good original musical and lyrical content.

MrMagpie Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The Wall is pure genius though. And so is Dark Side of the Moon. Great Gig in the Sky is one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me Radiohead for me was an instantly gripping thing, they're so dam intresting. The further I got into them the more I found RH's outlook and vision similar to my own. Radioheads the band for people who like films like Taxi Driver! --------- The wall and Wish you were here are my fav floyd albums, followed by Animals. DSOTM to me isn't anything amazing, in the big wide world most lyrics arn't philosophical poetry so those that are stand out. Roger Waters had an amazing vision don't get me wrong but this is his least intresting expressing of it. Its so dam self indulgent to the band (rather than the real masterpeices when Roger controlled) with all these dam instrumentals. Whatever color you like, is supposed to be an important philosophical pointer, with no lyrics its just needless. Its as pointless as Hunting bears!

yellowy eyes Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I'm not sure about this one.. I mean it's R.E.M.'s Leave but it's different from the album version. Stipe sings in this version, too. It was on the Towering above the rest album so the performer is marked as Radiohead. I was thinking that maybe Radiohead were playing the music. http://www.mediafire.com/?dz0mzrxymjz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
