Radiohead

[DC]

Any else a fan or once was a fan?

I was 15 years old when OK CPU came out and it blew my group and I's mind. At the time, we loved pretty much everything except country including the RHCP, DMB, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, De La Soul, Pharcyde, RATM, etc. Side note: The 90s music rocked.

Once we digested the OK CPU masterpiece I quickly gobbled up the Bendz, Pablo Honey and then '00 and Kid A/Amnesiac came.

Radiohead has certainly changed over the years and while I was put off by Kid A at first in '00, it of course grew on me and I learned to appreciate a bands albums more as different chapters, rather than a sum of its parts. It was haunting, mystical and nearly brough me to my knees on several occasions throughout the years. Radiohead, to this day, is still in my top five of all-time favorite artists even though I seldomly listen to them nowadays.

I haven't thought about them in a minute until I heard Packt like Sardines today. And I can't get it out of my head. Some of my favorite songs:

Street Spirit
Subterrain Homesick Alien
Everything in it's right place
Just
Black Star
Punchdrunk
National Anthem
on and on and on and on...

And for those that remember the movie Vanilla Sky...in college, got super baked and had no idea what the movie was about and when it opened with that scene...oooo it sent shivers!

I like Radiohead when I'm traveling in Asia and meet people to party with and we end up partying too much harder than normal partying which causes a morning mood coming down off of various mixtures of things and literally only Radiohead "hits" the right way for the whole entire vibe.

Not a fan but love the episode of south park when radio head makes fun of Scott peterman crying after he found out he ate his dead parents lol

Radiohead is great, definitely one of my favorite bands. OK Computer and Kid A are amazing, and they serve as a jump for them compared to all their albums before; it reminds me of Pink Floyd's trajectory before and after Dark Side. Climbing Up the Walls is one of my favorite songs, that fucking bass and the atmosphere of that song is just glorious; if you like this song, check out Che by Suicide, I feel like they were heavily influenced by that tune, though maybe I'm wrong.

Favorite "old" Radiohead songs:
Just
The Bends
Street Spirit
Ripcord
Anyone Can Play Guitar
Blowout

Favorite "new" Radiohead songs:
Climbing up the Walls
National Anthem
In Limbo
There, There (used to know how to play this, albeit terribly)
All I Need
Bodysnatchers
Punchup at a Wedding
Codex

So many more, but those are the ones off the top of my head.

Totes OP!

I was even at that show in Grant Park after they released 'Amnesiac" and long before Lollapalooza made their home there. The sound was kinda subpar, but having that downtown skyline as a backdrop was totally badass.

Haven't thought of them much lately due to their own inactivity & Thom Yorke flying solo on some stuff, but still a fan.

Best bass line ever.

Great band
Karma police is so Underrated just so many great jams

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

OK Compuer
Kid A
In Rainbows

Three of my favorite albums ever that I can listen to start to finish.

Years ago I did a Google search for “bands like Pink Floyd.” This video popped up. Was my introduction to the band. (Other than hearing Creep on the radio. Which is ironically one of their worst songs IMO). Needless to say…. Mind blown. Don’t think I listened to anything else for months.

Hell yeah, completely agree with those Top 3. I'd throw Hail to the Thief as a close 4th. I don't know much about Moon Shaped Pool, gotta check that one out more thoroughly.

Yeah, one of the first I learned to play on guitar.

PENNY'S PLAYLIST:

Having been to 50+ concerts, I still have NOT seen them. Had an opportunity at Red Rocks when I moved to Colorado in the early 00s. Missed them by a minute but got the bootleg CD from a co-worker shortly thereafter.

BTW, I love all the songs/albums everyone has posted.

When my son and I took our journey out west, we both put our playlist together and made 1 huge playlist. He is a huge Radiohead fan and I became one after that trip. Just last week he taught me how to play High and Dry and we may do it together on an amateur night in our town.

The unique style of creep during its time really set it apart imo

 

[BaBaBlacksheep]

Here’s a good little gem not everyone may know. Great song to drive to on a sunny day. ?

OK Compuer
Kid A
In Rainbows

Three of my favorite albums ever that I can listen to start to finish.

I almost want to count Kid A & Amnesiac as one album because they dropped within months of each other, so the tour was supporting both albums at once and they blend pretty seamlessly.

Otherwise, solid list.
