This thread has gone downhill faster than Fatty Arbuckle after being shoved by Will Rogers and Mary Pickford in some quasi attempt to rekindle what bonding they may or may not have shared back before the market crashed like Ryan Dunn after a cocktail of Four Loko, vodka, Red Bull, more caffeine powder, and equine seed from a mid-Pennsylvanian thoroughbred horse with a major case of balls that are bluer than the coastal edges of the 2012 electoral college voting map.
lol Das Boot if he cant see why someone wouldnt like Radiohead
Well, its not that simple. Chim says he loves 90s music... EXCEPT for radiohead.
I can understand how people would not like radiohead..m IF they don't like rock or alternative etc. As a whole. But to single them out specifically, when you admittedly love the genre? Truly bizarre.
Would be like a rap aficionado saying Jay-Z sucks or something. They "could" have that opinion; it'd just be wrong.

It's not just wrong, don't be an *******.
I find their music boring (as in hard to get into). I have tried to like them. I can't get into them. Some of the earlier stuff was ok, the later stuff sucks dick.
A better example would be if someone said they love seafood, but don't like octopus because they don't like the texture. Totally ok to have that opinion.
People getting so uppity about musical tastes and preference is just so lol.
ETA: I also didn't single them out specifically. In the very same post I said I don't like Pearl Jam. There are others from the genre I don't like (I said Deftones later in this very thread).
Oasis kinda blew. I mean I get their appeal (especially for kids who never listened to the Beatles and weren't aware they did the same thing 30 years earlier way better) but I could never get past that dude's nasaly whiny voice.
"SAWMDAY YOU WAHL FIIIIIIIIND MEEE CWAWT BENEAAATH A LANDSLAWWWWD OF A CHAMPAGE SUPAHNOVER IN DA SKY-AYYYYYYYY"
Puke.
Also Radiohead pre-OK Computer = good. Post = garbage.
Skimming through this thread, NOZE seems to know what's right. Also, I'll defend Oasis to whoever wants to come at me. Also this:
Paint It Black is a pretty good song, but it's lost a lot of likeability for me with all the emo douches I've known who act like THIS IS THE GREATEST SONG EVER ERHMEGERD IT TOTALLY SPEAKS TO ME BECAUSE I'M SO DARK.
Let It Bleed > all

Discuss.
I would drop 90s behind 60s and 70s, but it's fairly accurate after that, I think. It's pretty close with the bottom 3 for me. Don't sleep on the 80s, some really good acts once you sift past the ****ty pop and the affront to society that is hair metal.

Not really. I kinda lost interest after Kid A / Amnesiac, and even those two I don't revisit very often. I mean, I still listen to new stuff when it comes out, usually, but it doesn't penetrate my consciousness the way The Bends and OK Computer did.
