much ruckus has been made by some people into underground electronica
and jazz that radiohead "stole" their newer sound from this source or
that one. as the point was made by someone else a few posts back
about the bjork album, artists get influenced by each other, while at
other times they create something on their own without having ever
heard something they end up sounding similar to.
much the music on "kid a" and "amnesiac" clearly has its origins in
electronica, jazz, krautrock, avant-garde cut-up techniques, brian
eno's ambient albums. you can also spot more conventional influences
like the smiths and the beatles on the latter CD. radiohead did
their part in interviews by crediting the things they listened to,
such as the warp catalog, lali puna, johnny marr, and alice coltrane.
