I always say 'plad' when I am speaking about them, but in my mind I personally prefer 'played' cos it just sounds cooler.

i don't know if you're supposed to say "plad" or not but [pleid] definately sounds better.

2. Plad
I'm from Derbyshire.
I knew it was pronounced Plad because somewhere in the dim and distant past I remember Steve Martin talking about his film 'Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid', and he pronounced it as Plad.

well, that what i thought too, but the existence of this topic and Zeus's link made me doubt now.
i must be pronouncing it wrong.
oh well, i don't care...
(by the way, "Autechre" seems pretty obvious to me as well)

surely it's "plad" in the sense that the word 1) in the U.K. (and presumably in USA too) is pronounced UNLIKE "played", and 2) the Plaid guys themselves are on the record for saying it's "really" with a single vowel, although they don't mind either way.
But the link to "played" is pretty obvious in some sense. Just don't pronounce it that way. Maybe their name is unpronouncable, unutterable, like the name of G/O/D??

regarding the quantity of replies in this thread, plaid can be pronounced in 33 different ways. Remarkable:)

the correct way is probably 'plad'. like a plaid shirt. it sounds so shit though, like you're trying to impress someone by saying it. like autechre. i hate when people ask, what is this your listening to? 'autechre'. i usually respond with 'some music i downloaded of the net'.
there's no 't' in plaid tolstoyed

see the thing is, 'autechre' seems to be said by many as 'aw-tek-ker'.. but apparently if it is a combination of audio technical research or whatever, then shouldn't it be 'aw-tek-reh' ?
