I never really though tof Slint as post-rock, they just don't sound like other bands in that genre.

Both are viewed as the founders... though Bark Psychosis were the first band to be labelled as post-rock

Slint just doesn't sound like modern post-rock.

Back to Radiohead, Whether you like Pablo Honey or not, you have to admit "Stop Whispering" is crazy awesome.

Pre-Ok Computer Thom looks like Smeagle mixed with Clay Aiken... I usually try not to look at him for those videos.

I wasn't a big fan of their debut CD, but when The Bends came out, I started to like what they were doing. By the time OK Computer came out, I became a full-fledged fan. The first time I heard Paranoid Android on the radio was in my 2nd semester of college. I remember putting in a cassette because they said they were going to play it again while I was in class. I come back from class and get the first 30 seconds of it...ack! Of course, I ran over to Wax Trax and picked up a copy. I think I played it over and over again in my headphones for nearly a week. My favourite track: The Tourist.

"Hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down."
