My thoughts exactly. I'm a musician of 15 years, studied it some in college, and have very eclectic tastes. But some of Radiohead's stuff (especially their SNL appearance) is atonal cacophony. Letting someone hold an instrument does not make him a musician. To quote Type O Negative (not really a fan, so hold your flames), "Don't mistake lack of talent for genius."

Wha? I remember they played The National Anthem on SNL. True, the horns are a bit cacophonous, but the bass riff on that song is classic.

Anyone suggest a couple to check out?
Paranoid Android and Karma Police both got a lot of air play. You may have heard these before.

Must be a big playlist. :)

Edit: I think the album was Ok Computer.

That's right, suckas! Flame me. But really when Radiohead came out with their first mainstream album (fake plastic trees was my favorite) that was a damn good album

Umm Radiohead has never had an album called "Fake plastic tree's" it's the name of a single from "The Bends".

As pointed out previously in this thread it is pointless arguing about what music you think sucks and trying to push your opinion onto others as everyone has different tastes in music and most will not be swayed into what they think "Rocks" and what then think "Sucks".
