Anyone a little disappointed?
To be fair, the best most cohesive songs will be on the album making it a streamlined sure fire classic for Coldplay (especially with Eno) and everything else will be B sides and singles, we won't miss anything good.

45 minutes is the human attention span. Short albums with no filler in are the best, look at The Verve's 70 minute Urban Hymns its a bit differcult to take in.

Radiohead Survivor - Hail To The Thief - Round 4
HTTT is definatly RH's most controversial album, nobody likes it all but everyone loves things others hate. To me Scatterbrains vocals were punishing, and Myxamotosis (that isn't very popular) and backdrifts ammount the best songs on the album. I'd argue that this is one of RH's best for its variety with songs like Wolf at the door, 2+2=5 and There There being among RH's best songs of all.

Radiohead
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!

Radiohead
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.

If you don't listen to the lyrics its a pretty good song. Well if you ignore the silly part of the lyrics.

Muse Survivor - Showbiz - Round 1
Im not sure about this album, all the music is 1st class but its not very memorable. I think the uninventive song names don't help here. Falling down is pretty annoying though so ive voted that for now.

Radiohead Survivor - Hail To The Thief - Round 2
Tis, along with 2+2=5 and a Wolf at the door

Radiohead
Radiohead don't feel the need for 25 minute long songs with precious little music to fill the time. Pink Floyd laid down the foundation for what RH sing about with the likes of Animals and The Wall but RH surpass them in every respect. Except you can't really think of an amazing RH guitar solo, mainly because RH arn't totally self indulgent. And Dark Side of The Moon is my least fav of the 4 amazing Floyd LP's outside of which Floyd arn't really anything special.

The Killers never got me, the first albums not bad at any point but I never have a desire to listen to it. The american stuff just isn't for me, it isnt as good as the rest nothing against or dislike towards american music (I love U2's the Joshua Tree) but for me the Killers are nothing special.

We could vandalise another Coldplay forum, get the RHeaders to go in first and start being mean to the Coldplayers then in come us to save the day!

Coldplay vs. Radiohead fans
It would be great fun to see Coldplay acnoloage their destructive and evil fanbase. Get a song about you on the new LP about fans who arn't true fans. And tbh I think Coldplay fans are often seen as being gay, efeminate (In my case their right) and it would be fun to see them attack and destroy a website.

A KKK forum would be used to attacks, most forums protect themselves from spam these days. You want a forum thats small but not abandoned, maybe a couple of posts a week and you need to prepare a battle plan. I want to create something so bad that it gets in the news so Coldplay have to issue a statement that this is not 'representive of a true coldplay fan' then have tabloids commenting on how unruly and disrespectful RH and CP fans are and how curfews and ASBO's should be inflicted upon them.

Yah I rarely do things in the evenings so id gladly vandalise another forum. But lets do something completely off the wall like a gardening forum filled with mums and people new to the internet. Think of the people who use gardening forums, I doubt they know who Coldplay / Radiohead are and certainly wont have loyaltys.
