some my more 'enlightened' friends (read RADIOHEAD) tell me that walking down the hill frm 12 memories is like some kinda kid A rip-off (the album in general). i do admit maybe the synth beat and the piano styles are similar but i think walkin down the hill is very different frm kidA and is totally travis.
somehow or other, it seems to me that thom yorke's the eraser is more similar to 12 memories than 12 memories is to kid A. so what, wld it be fair to say thom 'ripped off' travis like they allege abt travis?
you see its all my opinion. so im wondering if its just me or you guys think so too.
thoughts anyone? |

Thoughts? Don't like the majority of Radiohead's work, so wouldn't know what Kid A sounds like.
Ain't Pyramid Song off Kid A??? |

I don't think so... both albums sound completely different, in fact I had never thought about similarities between them...
No, i don't think so...
But anyway! both are great!! |

| The irony with this comparison is that Nigel was not involved with this song/album. But I'd say no. |

Kid A is the album that sounds 'different' and a bit electronic right? I haven't listened to it, but if it is the electronic one, I would go with no since Travis doesnt sound electronic=/
My cousin says Travis is a bad copycat of Radiohead...which I think is total bs.
I never understood Radiohead, they have some good songs but other than that ..there's nothing enjoyable about it for me.. |

It's off Amnesiac.
For the record, Kid A is the best Radiohead album of them all.
After OK Computer. |

| haha yeah kidA and ok computer are pretty darn good. but i think the amnesiac, hail and the eraser arent very nice. 12 memories is definitely better thn the lot tho :P its kinda like the travis fans' bogey album but i really love it. as much as i love every other travis album. cldnt choose between them, one for every mood like. |

I like 12 Memories a lot, but OK Computer shits on it, seriously. |

OK. I have The Bends, but haven't listened to it all that much. And i've heard most of a lot of the other albums- and didn't get it. I like No Surprises and 2+2=5, but that's really it

idiot. u wana be different. Kid A was awful compared to OK, the bends and Hail to the theif...
it is similar to radiohead but who cares.
its not a rip off really cos that would mean every one has ripped off the beatles for making guitar music!!
radiohead are in league of their own.
travis are also.
different bands for different needs.... |

| radio head es aparte. su trabajo habla de su evolucion, la musica que componen y ejecutan es valiosa, y no hay caso de compararla con el arte de travis. Las motivaciones del publico por una banda no pueden estandarizarse, ni podemos confirmarnos por criterios cerrados de evaluacion musical, yo soy fan de radio head desde hace muchos años, a travis los conoci por accidente (un dia de suerte), y no me atrevo a hacer ninguna comparacion entre ellos, por que mis motivaciones tambien son incomparables. si te sirve mi opinion, el sonido the 12 memories es travis y solo travis, y es genial, es limpio, concreto y bien compuesto, ejecuciones perfectas. no cabe comparacion con Kid A, que por igual es grande y prodigioso, (hail, ok, the bends, pablo, amnesiac, todos lo son), no tengo criterios tan fuertes para justificar mi gusto por mi musica, pero ellos me dan la pauta para saber que es lo que ya no puedo permitirme escuchar, se cuida, saludos |
