as far as comparing hail to the theif with those (i never
got the live album) i think its good, and tracks like 2+2=5
and scatterbrained are awesome, but some just ... i dunno.
stuff like the gloaming and we suck young blood just don't
work as well for me.

pulseclock: im at work so can't watch that but sophie sweet
does not do HC very often so you better appreciate it.

So as far as I can tell, you don't think it went wrong for
Radiohead at all.

not really, no

I don't think everyone in radiohead was happy with the
direction thom and jonny were taking it. i think that is
why hail to the theif had some good songs but was overall
hit or miss but, now that they've sorted it all out...

In Rainbows = awesome
The Eraser = awesome
There Will Be Blood soundtrack = awesome

spokes were sex.

Orbital after the release of their brilliantly understated
'Middle Of Nowhere', managed to follow it up with a pretty
inane offering with only one track worth merit. The last
album was so much better than their penultimate one, but
nothing replaces Snivilisation for the most kickass album
ever made

Radiohead, when they released Pyramid song.

so where did it all go wrong with x-marks the pedwalk?

skinny puppy electro-industrial to euro synth-core pop.

most of the industrial fans hated meshwork (i loved it) and
drawback, so they stopped releasing music.

similar thing with haujobb.

started out sounding like puppy, then by solutions for a
small planet and ninetynine the industrial-ebm elements were
blended back with a focus on idm/electronica elements more
in the forefront.

again industrial fans did not respond well to it, but
instead of breaking up every album after has been SO ebm
that i cannot really get into it.

nacmat is obviously wrong in most of the cases

-----------------

dj shadow after Endtroducing
Adam F after colours
Adamski after Liveandirect
Pet Shop Boys after Behaviour
The Cure after Wish
New Order after Technique
oh and
Hanobi after Four Trucks ep

orbital after middle of nowhere - wrong, the altogether is
very good and Blue Album has many good bits (so i'd say it
was after the altogether)

pink floyd after the wall - ok

queen after the game - dunno

pulp after different class - dunno

massive attack after mezzanine - wrong: 100th window is very
good, apart from those Sinead vocals

plaid after double figure - wrong, wrong, wrong !

uziq after lunatic harness - wrong: royal astronomy might
not be that great, but bilious paths ? come on, the
brrrreaks ! yummy

and many many more

7 artists: 4 wrongs, 1 oks, 2 dunnos

there you go, Sir

Beck (1998): Beck was only Beck before he released
Mutations. After he released that piece of crap, he has
always been trying to re-invent himself. I'm not saying his
later music sucks, I'm just saying that his earlier music
was more original.

Bjork (2001): When Bjork started dating Matthew Barney, her
music has just never been the same. The 2 aren't related,
but at around that time, her music had changed a lot.
Although I love Vespertine, as well as Matthew Barney, her
music since then just doesn't have the same feel that her
90s music had. Maybe it has something to do with Michel
Gondry.

Peter Gabriel (Late 90s): Peter Gabriel is an innovator of
progressive rock. His sampling of real world sounds in his
album "Security" might be an example of early electronica.
In 1992 he released "Us" which was his last really good
album. For about 8-10 years he was inactive. during this
time, he lost the same talent, as well as his hair.

the Chemical Brothers (2007): We Are the Night was a piece
of shit.

Dave Matthews Band (2001 & 2002): The group had gone through
many difficulties between 1998 & 2001. The producer of their
3 previous successes had left, and their album "Everyday"
had kinda sucked.
However, after that they had made up for it by releasing
"Busted Stuff" which was their last good album. Stand Up
sucked, and the new one will suck too.
