i think their songs are shite, personnally, and horribly banal.

i bought pablo honey in 94, copied the bends when it came out, and listened to ok computer when it was realeased too (i loved ok computer but i always thought it was stupid music for some reason), i've listened to all those albums quite a load of times. it's music you can enjoy for sure, it's very expressive, but what it expressed ahs already been expressed a million times by a millions other musicians, and the way they express themselves isn't that subtle imo. especially on ok computer. there is something very superficial in their music. they have talent and technique but their inspiration is weak and not interesting imo, banal, banal, banal, boring. as i previously wrote i think they got better with kid a. seems like they've been trying to find something to say (at least) - i'm not talking about the lyrics which i don't listen (english isn't my mother tongue as u may have noticed already). haven't listened to amnesiac enough to have an opinion about it. seemed showing no interest at first listens. /yann aka no_id (you know you hate me) - hello to ninjatune.net forum regulars and ol warpcomm forum regulars --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
