and how can Knives Out suck? If I had to pick any Radiohead song that sucked I'd say Fake Plastic Trees for starters. cue video of Thom in plastic consumer nightmare ahhh no it's so hard being thom yorke and being better than you
I'm getting those re issues, except maybe Pablo Honey, I'm debating it in my head. Depends on the price. Also I hate that video.

To me, The Bends, as a whole, lacks what I love in Radiohead... Fantastic production and gorgeous layering.

Fun Fact: John Leckie, the producer of The Bends, produced Muse's first two albums. That's why they're often grouped together, as there's not much musical similarities.

To be honest, I really do see a lot of similarities beyond the voices. I'm not going to go so far as to say Muse rips them off or anything, but I personally hear a lot of 'OK Computer' in 'Black Holes and Revalations.'

Oh my god. Has anyone else ever heard this Radiohead cover of Winter Wonderland? It's priceless.

Yeah, I had seen that on there I was just giving some insight as to why Muse are often compared with Radiohead, which I'm kind of tired of as a Muse fan.

And dac, can't really see where you're coming from with that...
