The best description I can give you as to what radiohead are is this. They are the gold of dawn and dusk. They are the winter of our life looking back at the spring of our lives with a warm smile. In a world that promises us nothing but death they are a reminder of the beauty between conception and death. That may not make much sense to most of you who are not radiohead fans but for those of us who are fans all you need to do is close your eyes and feel and you'll know what I talking about.
@Nalc77 I definitely have to agree, sometimes I can't make out the words Thom is saying BUT, the power and the beauty of it is when I CAN FEEL what he is saying. It really does take you back with every listen. Timeless music here. I only dislike ONE song from their entire Library and that's because I felt like it didnt really fit them. and that song is Anyone Can Play Guitar. too Nirvana esque for me and my tastes.
I don't care if they are pop or not, they are the most innovative band of this time. And they actually are one of the few bands that I think will live the ravages of time! Does anyone know if they will tour soon? Their website shows nothing, only some concerts in America in the beginning of 2010, but nothing even close to Europe...
it is so diferent, how u say so good :D, to be a pop band that makes a simple music (its my opinion xD) or to be a comercial band that makes comercial music to sell more records xDDD
could you pass me more videos of radiohead that you have, we might use the e-mail account, or you could record them and send them to me by regular mail, I obviously pay them to you, and the delivering, of course
in reference to the radiohead being pop music they can't be because not many people have actually heard of them go into a high school and no one has any idea who thom yorke is im like literally the only one
true, they transcend any genre, this can be the new classical music: music with today's tools reflecting its time, era, music that defines its era conceptually, esthetically..... just genious
i agree completely - Radiohead is by far the best band that ever have existed and it really is by far coz nobody seems to manage something that out of the ordinary ALL THE TIME
you name me one band in the world atm that is better than radiohead, and i'll see that i transfer every paycheque i ever receive for the rest of my life to you.
I'm having one of the worst "off" days i know. I listen to knives out in this acoustic set, i began to cry. Not to sound cliche, but it really is beautiful in acoustic form. I dunno.. something about the lyrics in the song help me feel better.
please help me someone who knows french he said: tout d'abord - it's probably means "firstly" ok then goes: merci d'etre venus, venus - it's must be "came" right?from venir, but d'etre - what does it mean i just forgot.
trying to decide what "brand" of music radiohead is clearly shows they cannot be labeled, they are just artists who are genius's and we are lucky to have them in our world.
y are ppl trying to put a label on the most prolific band of our era? electronica, discoteque, folk, rock, acid rock, acid jazz, they touch on all of it. its radiohead man u just gotta accept it for its greatness n stop trying to label it. but whoever even implied that they are pop is a bloody wanker.
"but whoever even implied that they are pop is a bloody wanker."
Mmmm. i hate it when people try to get all elitist about listening to Radiohead. Pop=Popular, doesn't mean it'sspicegirls or anythin. I'd say Radiohead are one of the most popular bands in the world.
i dnt think radiohead is pop cuz. pop iis generic , "MTV" music.. and radiohead wouldnt be considered "MTV music"..so radiohead cannot be considered pop.....
like i said pop=popular not RnB or shit, MTV play radiohead alot. But OK il say your cool cos you listen to Radiohead ;), you need to recognise media and its spin pal. Everyone i know, knows and likes Radiohead
Right so what we have here is a problem over the use of the word 'Pop' as a genre classification (refering to shit bands e.g. pussy whore dolls, Britney etc) as opposed to an ammount of people who like one thing making it popular... Radiohead are a popular band but they sure arnt pop... hope that clears that shit up.
pop as a genre classification does mean popular, im not making it up. Its not my fault people have tarnished the word by relating it to boy and girl groups
But i guess my biggest point is that, many people find Radiohead to be this unhumanly experimental band. when there is much more different shit out there...the only reason they have heard of radiohead is because they are pop.
and im not hating because Radiohead are one of my favourite bands
jeez were do u live! i get made fun of and beat up 4 liking the music i like. radiohead, massive attack, portishead, home video, aereogramme, porcupine tree.......
I'm pretty sure they are considered pop because it was popular in Europe, not pop by American standards at that time, though I am only speaking through bits and pieces of things i have heard. particularly a song by Dan Le Sac "Thou Shalt Always Kill" which came up on the low end of British charts. Calling out trends of British pop culture. Saying Radiohead as "just a band," and (was) "the next big thing". Along with some other pretty decent artists. To which i find his philosophy flawed.
I didnt say they were Britpop, i was responding to a previous poster who implied that they were "Britpop". Stop trying to define music in genres you bunch of scabs, the best artists can not be defined. "To Define Is To Limit" - Oscar Wilde.
you are so confused...there is a reason to say what is rock and what is pop. The rythm of the music marks if it´s pop or rock or country or blues or whatever you listen for. yuo have to learn something about music...
Radiohead isn't straight trough rock no, it is rock with some electronic, I like them the most on The bends and Pablo honey and Ok Computer, the electro thing wasn't really good, I hope they will soon start again with making pure rock songs...!:D
Yeah I agree they're not pure rock simply because they're so many other things aswell. Their the best band in the world atm, but I have to disagree about your comment on the electronic side, I think some of their best stuff is from Kid A and Amnesiac, on Ok Computer they combined electronic with rock so well, they're just the best. Cant wait for the new album, hopefully it's another Ok Computer.
whether they're gifted, or talented or amazing or whatever incomplete words I can type.... They're there and channeling, gives hope for humanity I think.
i love the "solo" in the first song, it seems like he's hitting random notes...but they all are in key and sound good...just random, like radiohead, perfect chaos
much more.i dont like like oasis. you can listen to starsailor, the strokes, muse, travis, the killers, sterophonics. there is a spanish group that takes a lot of radiohead: MAGA. this is an example there is much more. bye and i hope u like the selection.
radiohead is not pop...oh my god...they have a song called "pop is dead", wich is marvellous. radiohead is rock...alternative rock influenced by different kind of styles like blues.

If you classify a band as being a "pop" band based on how many records they sell AC/DC would be one of the biggest "pop" bands of all time.
But i guess it just comes down to how you personally define the "pop" genre. we can all agree radiohead is amazing
