Thom Yorke didn't like Coldplay. Like, one of his idols who he had emulated thinks his band sucks.

FTR though, I like both bands quite a bit.

I think the music is great. Much better than anything on King of Limbs

I've listened to about 200 seconds of Radiohead in my life

Not too surprising.

KOL was pretty bad, and I generally love RH. This sounds pretty good, but I hope

I'm with you. I hate KOL. I tried to like it, but it just wasn't happening.

Shades of the "There Will Be Blood" soundtrack.

Radiohead: easily the most overrated band by CB

Not as much lately. Neon Trees and Imagine Dragons have replaced them.

Radio perplexes me with their popularity.

"Creep" was a massive song in the late 90's.

Redbird

They've had a couple of hit songs, but they haven't been their best, or their

And in 10 years, popular artists will be using rhythms and riffs that Radiohead

I know it's already happened. I'm saying it will continue to happen.

i think the fact that it isn't ubiquitous kind of raises the appeal a little.

riboflavin

I don't care for RH, but its difficult to overstate their influence/importance

Linescratcher

yeah, agreed. people will always glom onto any band with mass critical appeal.

Listening to Elliott Smith makes me kind of sad. But it's a sad that I like.

Best use of strings I can think of by them: love at 1:30 when you hear them.

Wow, sounds like Coldplay doing a poor cover of a rejected U2 b-side

I love Coldplay's first 2 albums. I don't care if they are imitations.

Hypnotoad

5/3/16 11:37am

Agreed. I like a lot of CP albums. Derivative don't matter if the songs are good

Jay Rick

coldplay was a different band when they first set out.
