I can't say I disagree... :)
You should have made us all register on the Radiohead forum, we would have stuck up for Travis :D |

No point really. I had posted there a few times and they all seemed a bit annoying but that was the last straw. I would agree to a certain extent. In recent years they've released some awful songs but they continue to make great songs too but they're inconsistent. In Rainbows was much better than the previous 3 albums. |

I see where Fran's coming from there. But I still think there are some decent melodic moments in In Rainbows... you just kinda have to dig a bit deeper to find them. I think it's the music and rhythm and the energy that has me hooked on Radiohead more than anything though, whilst Travis are better at giving me my 'melody' fix. |

thom yorke apparently said he'd rather have a laptop than a guitar if he could choose. i like radiohead but i'm not a big fan of songs like nude or their more electronic songs. i'm going to see them in dublin next month and i can't fuckin wait. songs like street spirit and there there are just amazing. But im a bigger travis fan :) |

Street Spirit is incredible. I love it. But I don't like There There but I do love Nude. :) Nude is one of their best songs since OK Computer time. |

And, for me, Radiohead are about evolution so I can't really judge one album on its own. They all just follow a different path and some are so strong that lots of others follow and some will probably die off (like poor Neanderthal Man, bless his heart and puny brain!). |
