1.Nirvana
2. Led Zeppelin
3. All radio popular rap of the past 10 years-I have nothing against rap/hip-hop as a genere, but the shit played on the radio sucks balls.

i used to <3 the first 6 or so songs off pablo honey before i was into the rest of radiohead's stuff. I still like some of it like creep and anyone can play guitar. but i like the other stuff way more that Pablo honey as a whole.

Pablo Honey isn't so mindbogglingly terrible so much as it is not as good as anything else Radiohead has done.

^^^ Though some of us just actually want to tell people that they're missing out on good bands. Apparently some people are extremely threatened by this.

i have about as widely varying musical tastes as anyone

but i just cannot get into radiohead.

Creep is a good song...that's about the best I can say for them.





and post-Blood Sugar Sex Magik stuff from the Red Hot Chili Peppers is ok (and better than most of what you'll hear on the radio), but definitely unspectacular...but the older stuff (particularly Mother's Milk and BSSM, in my opinion) is AWESOME.

the only radiohead song you like is creep while you don't like RHCP's radio-friendly stuff?

haha i didnt mean that i was threatened by people recommending music,
i love it when people recommend bands i havent heard of
but when people come up to me and say shit about the music I like and how its crap because most people recognize the artist and give me that snobbish look, it make me want to punch them in the face..
a good example of this is music that sounds like it should be on a college radio station

nobody cares what anyone of you think about music. either we personally like them or we dont, we dont care what you think.

ok, ok...that one is at least better than most of their other stuff. I can tolerate it.

But I still call them way overrated.

it's not that odd...

there's a big difference: early RHCP is good! haha


actually, i like the later, slicked up for the radio RHCP fairly well, too, but they don't hold a candle to "real" RHCP.

^^ funny, your info says you're 22.

and i'm sure as hell not 32.

so either you're 18, or i'm not 10 years older.

either way, Elvis is before anyone's time in this thread. I guess the same could be argued for Zep, but Zep still has appeal to college age kids.

ha im just being a bitch

im 22

but if we are talking "our time" then anything past 1990 shouldnt be concidered since I really wasnt aware of much when I was 0-5 years old.

So in that case Id say Radiohead because everyone is up their ass and Im cool like that.

OAR?

i think i've heard 3 people talk about them ever


and i personally wouldn't call mayer overrated.

if anything i'd say he's underrated if you're looking at his shit that gets on the radio versus his real abilities.

oh yeah, OAR big time

and stuff like Nickelback/3 Doors Down/Coldplay/all those other bands they play on the radio that sound exactly alike just kinda go without saying

care to go through the thread and see how many "overrated" nominations the two bands got? I'm not the only one not sucking Radiohead wang.

dude, it's not like i'm some teenybopper at a Britney Spears show saying Radiohead sucks, or at least is highly overrated. I like all kinds of music, all across the rock spectrum and well beyond it--everything from Wagner to Waylon Jennings, Ben Folds to Steve Vai. I've played 4 different instruments with at least reasonable proficiency (and was actually good at 3 of them...still play 2 of them). I've played in bands, covering different styles of music. I've done at least a little bit of home recording. I prob have >$1000 worth of CDs, God knows how many GBs of mp3s, a couple of moving boxes full of vinyl, 3 guitars, 2 pedals, an effects rack, and a tenor saxophone (sold my other amp, a couple of other guitars, a clarinet, and a 4-track).

and I don't care for Radiohead.


Oh, and I really like Red Hot Chili Peppers--particularly Blood Sugar Sex Magik and earlier.

it's not so much that i'm right as it is that i am most certainly not wrong.


some pretty-fly-for-a-white guy type motherfucker blasting nickelback and talking about how great they are...he's wrong.

I feel like I've earned enough credibility to dislike Radiohead without being referred to as a "mouth-breather".

don't get me wrong i <3 RHCP.

I went from greenville(NC) to Charlotte to wait hours on end to see them play 4 songs at a nascar event. and i fucking despise nascar

I dont know if i like them or Radiohead better.

but using overrated votes to say ANYTHING about quality, however small, is just retarded and irritating.

Black Eyed Peas (not technically a band, but nonetheless...)

As a result of this thread I've checked out some Radiohead.

...and they're terrible. Either their singer is mentally slow or he's got to learn some self-awareness.

I s'pose I can understand you not liking Radiohead if those are your general preferences, although Radiohead does a couple rockin' covers of Neil Young songs (After the Gold Rush and Cinnamon Girl)
