    Saw them last in 2002 at the Waterloo Hotel. Had a great night I'm guessing.

    you normally catch a bit of heat when you say you like guitar Radiohead over experimental and progressive Radiohead. "Music" people look at you like you are a leper, and say things like "OK Computer is the most important album of the 90s" and other pretentious bollocks.

    But fuck that, i think The Bends is brilliant, and this is not only my favourite Radiohead song, but one of my favourite songs from anyone

    I have three of their albums: Pablo Honey, The Bends, OK Computer.

    Overall I think the albums showed progress in terms of musical evolution. Pablo Honey was raw, while The Bends really announced their arrival. OK Computer is good to listen to in terms of how it flows, and it is a good album. But it probably isn't quite as good as The Bends because of the weird shit they were trying on.

    After that, they ceased to exist. Thom Yorke is perfectly within his rights to rail against the old music he wrote, as I imagine world tours, playing it over and over, make you shitty about it. But I don't have to buy Kid-A.

    @Donsteppa Some good picks in that article. The Alan Parsons Project are great.

    The other day, antipodean won the internet with the Elisabeth Shue Gif. Today I win. Because, after reading this, you are all going to click on the link and listen to this song. And life, the world, everything, absolutely everything. Is just better when you have listened to this song. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present the one, the only. ..... Black. By Pearl Jam.

    Fuck I hate "dad rock" 🙂

    Couple of modern day funk bands I've been listening to.

    Fort Knox Five out of LA

    Alphamax, from Auckland.

    @mariner4life Even Flow & Vs ?

    Wouldn't disagree but Black is a classic.

    @mariner4life Been listening to a lot of Pearl Jam lately. Quite easy to forget just how fucking awesome they are.

    Vs is basically the soundtrack for my first year at Uni.

    @MajorRage never been a massive fan (compared to other bands of the same era). I really like Vs, Ten is also really good (I'm listening to Porch as I type this), and i like the first four songs of Yield. The rest i could take or leave really.

    They do have some cracking sing-a-long tracks though, especially from those first two albums.

    @mariner4life yes, like most bands they have their ups n downs. But Ten & Vs are such huge ups, that pretty much so any down can be forgiven.

    And will always be the first big concert I went to where I had a genuine front row position. Pretty tough to beat the experience of being 17 and in the front row at the super top literlally 2 metres away from Vedder belting out Even Flow

    @mariner4life yeah, 95. The Friday concert. Totally awesome.

    Crazy to think that every single person that walked out was singing I got you.

    @mariner4life Just looking at setlist.fm ... my near 40 year old memory is fading me. They didn't even play Even Flow! Must have been Jeremy.
