OOO Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Sky blue Sky was a snoozer, and so is the new Radiohead. Both bands went straight to easy listening. You joined a Wilco messageboard to rag on Radiohead? Awesome. Keep it coming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PigSooie Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 "Nude" seems to be the favorite with Razorback fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jospe Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 You joined a Wilco messageboard to rag on Radiohead? Awesome. Keep it coming. No, I rejoined because I had to reformat my net machine. That said, this is a boring, boring album just like SBS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tareth Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Sky blue Sky was a snoozer, and so is the new Radiohead. Both bands went straight to easy listening.This is probably very true if you have a short attention span. I love both albums, personally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bobbob1313 Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 No, I rejoined because I had to reformat my net machine. That said, this is a boring, boring album just like SBS. Originally, he joined to give Roger Waters an E-Jay and tell Jeff Tweedy to go all Eagles on this bitch and start doing instrumental reprises of songs. And go on at length abouthow boring Bright Eyes was. I don't know if it's been said before, but "E-Jay" as in, "giving someone a Beej over the interwebs", is pretty much my new favorite saying.

loldoctor Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I just downloaded it and I really like it so far. I'm a Radiohead fan though. I stole it (0.00) but I'll probably hop on there and put in 5 pounds or so (10 dollars). I think this is how Music should be spread. A while ago Nine Inch Nails got all that credit for streaming their album off their site--stuff that Wilco's done since YHF! That pissed me off. This is a very clever kind of step forward from that... Power to Radiohead for not being scared. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
So Long Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I wish everyone (music critics, etc.) would stop glorifying Radiohead as the modern day music-pioneers and realize that A) Yes, Thom Yorke writes some good tunes, and but there are a lot of bands that write better ones. I did enjoy In Rainbows, but Rolling Stone already gave it 4 and 1/2 stars out of 5. Their review wasn't weighing whether or not the record was good, but how hard the record rocked. The reviewer sounded like a 14 year old boy running out of his first My Chemical Romance concert proclaiming them to be the "best fucking band ever" I think this album is good, I think all their albums are good. I don't think the band is great, I don't think their work is great. I feel Radiohead is as overrated as they could possibly be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

benjamin Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 This album ends really strong, starting with Reckoner. House of Cards is my fave as of now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bjorn_skurj Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 A spokesman for Mr. Dog said he still thinks In Rainbows is better than Wilco's Sky Blue Sky, but not as good as "How Much Is That Doggie In The Window." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YouAReMYface Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 In Rainbows is fantastic...ive listened to it probably 5-6 times by now, i wouldnt really consider myself a radiohead fanatic either who thinks anything they put out will be the greatest cd ever. But i think its one of the best albums ive heard in awhile (besides SBS of course). The best tracks would have to be: Bodysnatchers, Reckoner, House of Cards, and my personal favorite Jigsaw Falling Into Place. If you seriously dont like this album listen to it three more times and tell me what you think Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Perm Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I'm downloading it now . . . So how much did everyone pay? I paid $5 with plans to get a cd or at least the vinyl. Seems fair . . . thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Big Perm Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I almost didn't but it felt more like a donation, which may be ridiculous, I don;t know, I was compelled!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 i paid $0, but will buy it in some physical form me too. if it was offered in some sort of lossless format, I'd have paid for it. I'll just wait for the CD to be released. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I paid 4 pounds. Will steal lossless version if I need to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
