i was listening to kid a after about a year today, and i find it totally boring and i dislike it a lot i was really into it when it came out though, but in this last year i heard so much amazing music i find kid a total crap now but i'll give it another go, perhaps it will grow on me again ;) anyone had similar experience? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I had a similar experience with Amnesiac, not Kid A, though it was just a temporary thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i used to prefer kid a over amnesiac-i don't think i'll be listening this one any time soon perhaps when i get old... |
||||||||
|

It's arena rock at heart, like U2 or Smashing Pumpkins. While I have nothing against it, it really does nothing for me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Oh, and it has ambient interludes. Can't gloss over that, |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
radiohead = 10 smashing = 9 (if only they had stopped at melloncolie) u2= 7 (I really enjoy zooropa and pop, the rest I dont really care) |

Radiohead is in indie shit for indie kids. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this was probably first thread i started about disliking a certain artist but it really came as a surprise how weaker kid a sounds after i discovered some great stuff, and im a lot more into music that i was at the time i liked kid a well, i'll reconsider next time when i'll thinking of opening a thread like this, because it really isnt nice... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in addition i was trying to find an old radiohead thread, so i could post my thoughts inthere, but the search feature didnt work, so i opened this :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
WHA??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Radiohead is very talented, but I can only listen to them when I'm in the mood. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Radiohead is great, I've loved them since I was 8! :D One of my longest-liked bands! But I think Kid A got more credit than it deserved. It's good, but it just gets more credit than I thought it deserved. :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
alot of things suck. but radiohead isn't top on my 'suck' list. lol my g/fs nipples are :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so radiohead suck because you don't like kid a? makes alot of sense. i beg to differ though. radiohead are the only musicians who consistently challenge me at the same level that aphex twin does. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I have such mixed feelings about Radiohead. Everyone in the even remotely indie scene makes you feel like an idiot if you say anything bad about them. Kid A is their best work, but even it is not perfect. They just don't have the consistent goodness of some of the better IDM acts.. they're still too enamoured of traditional rock to completely break free. They're great in their own rite but as a sort of hybrid they may not cut it in the end. |
||||||||
|

|
radiohead far different to pumpkins. pumpkins = babyish simplistic, creed like music! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Don't be hatin' on my radiohead. Actually, we're all entitled to our opinions, so it's alright. phew. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i understand people not liking radiohead, or not liking kid a. what i don't get, and i'll never get this because radiohead never stated as such, but why the hell does everyone compare radiohead to IDM? they aren't IDM. they will never be IDM. don't compare them to IDM acts in terms of that genre. if you want to compare the two in terms of simple musical quality, fire away, but i can't emphasize this enough, radiohead aren't an IDM act. they're a rock band that makes "experimental" (this isn't really true, but for them kid amnesiac were experimental) albums. placing them alongside autechre or aphex twin and comparing their merits in the electronic genre of music is completely pointless. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Point well taken .. I didn't directly compare them though, not intentionally anyway .. I am saying that because Thom seems to be trying to combine styles, imo he ends up sacrificing quality on either the experimental or the rock end. The reason we make even remote IDM comparisons is that from what I undertand Thom is a big fan of these genres and his music has evolved accordingly. Don't get me wrong, I think his music is quite innovative. I love Kid A. I don't think that IDM and Radiohead deserve direct comparisons, but to an extent I think Thom's asking for it. Whether we look back on his creations 20 years from now and think he made a unique new style or a flavor of the month hybrid I'm not sure. I say he gets an A+ for effort and a B for final product, with exceptions of course. |
||||||||

|
|
radiohead, imo are doing more progressive stuff than aphex these days. As for smashing pumpkins, some of their older albums were great, and to say its "babyish/simplistic" is just stupid - listen to the complex overdubs in the tunes off siamese dreams. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
creed like music! So what you're basically saying is, you have never actually listened to the Smashing Pumpkins. |

i really wish a moderator would close this stupid topic... it's ignorant to just come on and bash something you don't like, just trying to start some s**t... i hope once the site is actually up, this message board thins out abit. |

Different strokes for different folks. I don't like Radiohead but I can listen to Kid A and Amnesiac and enjoy them quite a bit. The b-sides from Amnesiac are real good too. It's not in any way indie unless you stopped listening at 'Pablo Honey'. Radiohead are not the enemy musically. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Band bashing makes good reading, even if people don't have a clue what they're talkin about, it's still funny. Kid A is fun Pop, Zooropa, achtung..rest blows Siamese dream, mellon collie...++...gish. adore. machina 2 + machina 1 - ....wooptiedoo...an opinion! |

Kid A & Amnesiac are beautiful |
||||||||
|
|

|

I will ignore this thread as I do not even question any radiohead album (i do not count pablo honey). |

never liked them meself |

"it's ignorant to just come on and bash something you don't like, just trying to start some s**t" That's really not fair towards tolstoyed, who is always a very positive and polite person (or at least on this messageboard ;-), don't know the guy in real life). And i hardly think he tried to cause any trouble. It was an interesting point he made, when it was released he loved the album, and now some 2 years later he completely dislikes it. Which is quite intruiging. My opinion of Kid A has also changed since (because of Kid A!) i started listening to idm-music. When it was just released i was totally amazed by how experimental and progressive it was. The fact it had such futuristic sounds and almost no guitars... that was all very interesting to me. But now that i listen to that kind of music on a daily basis, Kid A isn't able to blow me away like the first time anymore. I still love the album alot, but nowadays i listen to it in a different way. I appreciate the beautiful songs, and Thom's vocals... it has become "just another radiohead album", whilst on it's release i thought it was something completely unique. |

I think Kid A and Amnesiac are great albums, but I think they in certain ways lack the magic I can hear in OK Computer. They're completely different kind of albums, I know, and therefore can't be really compared but for me the former two just don't have the endurance of the latter. OK Computer is definately one of my favourite albums ever. Just sheer beauty track after track. It still amazes my every time I play it and I must have listened to it 100+ times by now. |

yeah and you suck rrhino cock - i jest tolstoyed, rreally i do. it's a shame you don't like it, but give it time it is surre to grrow on you. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

"That's really not fair towards tolstoyed, who is always a very positive and polite person" yeah he is, i rreally like tolstoyed. |

Kid A is okay but not to much more... nice booklet though ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Especially the booklet inside the back of the case is very nice. :) I'd had the album for about six months and had no idea it was there until someone told me about it. |
||||||||

WHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHA!!!!!! HOW CAN YOU SAY RADIOHEAD SUCKS?!?!?! The only thing that sucks about Radiohead is that they dont have a new album. From Pablo Honey to Amnesiac is pure greatness, yes their sound has changed but its definietly a good change... OK computer was their first change and Kid A is just a compeletly different album but you cant say it sucks How about this, smoke a bowl and listen to it and I'll bet you you'll love it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love them... but I guess I've tired of them a bit lately. Thom's voice is grating to my ears now. They're still in my top 10 all time though, and I can't wait for a new album. They're not predictable. |
||||||||
|

afxNUMB: New album out June. Tropa: About the booklet, me too. Props to Anus Presley for letting me know. |

Why name a topic "Radiohead sucks" when you're just a little dissapointed with them? Saying something "suck" is such a harsh thing to say. Mind your words, my friend. |
||||||||
|

words don't mean shit. his purpose behind the words were meaningful. music is outgrown sometimes. it happens. you never know, we might all be saying "autechre sucks" in 3 years. |
