2. The repeating of electronic loops have all but replaced any drums or guitars, I don't know what Phil's repsonsiblities were on this album, but were probably minimum. Only Sepetator saves this album but honestly this like the other tracks just sound like they could be b-sides to anything from Kid A to In Rainbows.
3. Radiohead but out a bad piece of work, this is the worst I have ever heard from the band. Pablo Honey is more enjoyable. I have given this thing alot of chances. I'd give it a 6/10

This is the best description of it I've seen, i agree entirely, minus the pablo honey part.
I think trying to call radiohead "pop" is quite a stretch, and a little pretentious.
They are very catchy at times, and certainly have enjoyed mainstream success, but their lyrical content, image, certainly isn't what i consider pop. They don't follow trends enough.
If you want a pop version of radiohead listen to Muse or some other gay ****.
