I wouldnt say Sgt Peppers was bland either, however its not all its made out to be in the sense that that The Beatles bettered it on a number of occasions I feel.

I do disagree with Radiohead. Its arguable that they had better albums but I can still thoroughly enjoy OK Computer. I can understand some of the terms that get thrown at them ie they are a bit depressing etc but I never thought they were bland.

I'm surprised you included Floyd. You dont like The Wall then?

Do you not like The Beach Boys either?
The Wall is awful bar a few blessed moments. As for Radiohead. Listen to Archive.
