Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted March 25, 2003 At least they didn't go with the proposed 2+2=5, which sounds like the name of a Sum 41 album. Alas, the song still exists, and it looks to be the opening track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest B-X Report post Posted March 25, 2003 They could name the album "B-X is a fucking cunt and he engages in incest and homosexual actvities with Crucifixio Jobes" and I would still buy it and enjoy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Incandenza Report post Posted March 25, 2003 The title stopped being funny two minutes after the 2000 election scandal died down. If they couldn't think of a title as dated as Hail to the Theif or as idiotic as 2+2=5, they should've just st'ed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest converge241 Report post Posted March 25, 2003 they should pull a spinal tap just no name and pick a color besides black or white (the beatles - if anyone needed to be told) radiohead - the muave album Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted March 25, 2003 Well, I heard it was going to be called 'apparently' at one point and that would have been crap. I think hail to the thief is the best of those three, but man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kinetic Report post Posted March 25, 2003 Yeah, that sucks. I hope this isn't the official official title because it's the sort of embarrassingly punny nonsense that I'd make fun of if I didn't like the band. Still, it's indicative of just a slight bit more effort than naming your album after marks of punctuation like those Icelandic cunts in Sigur Ros. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Choken One Report post Posted March 26, 2003 Why do people love this shitty "Art" Music So much? It's because it was cool to say you knew Radiohead around 1994 before the world rightfully realized the suckiness of these guys. Why waste your time with this depressing dreck? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted March 27, 2003 "Art" music? I consider Radiohead to be a rock band, albeit one that's often more experimental than many other mainstream artists. In my experience, people tend to love Radiohead because even after the misstep of Amnesiac, they're still one of the most interesting and exciting regularly productive band around. Depressing, perhaps. Dreck? Nah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nevermortal Report post Posted March 27, 2003 Sigur Ros is officially the most boring band ever. They're right up there with Tool & Radiohead when it comes to bore factor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why waste your time with this depressing dreck? i must've missed that memo from the world that radiohead is now considered crap, cause i've yet to hear any substantial backlash to them (aside from scattered message board comments).

Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted March 27, 2003 I liked Amnesiac. Sure, it was less good than OK Computer and Kid A, but it was still incredibly good when put against every other band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Report post Posted March 27, 2003 Yeah. I generally don't speak too favorably of Amnesiac because it mostly plays like a lesser, not as well organized or cohesive or fresh-sounding Kid A, but it's still pretty slick. "I Might Be Wrong," "Like Spinning Plates," "Pyramid Song," and "Life In A Glasshouse" are all bombastically delicious songs that always make me come back, even if some of the album falls flat.

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted March 27, 2003 I'm not a big fan, but I'd definitely say they're a damn good band. This is also quite a lame album title. They should lift one from Anal Cunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest saturnmark4life Report post Posted March 27, 2003 I'm only a fan by association, with my best friend being the ULTIMATE RH fanboy OF DEATH. Life in a glasshouse is a favourite, though. And what I can't understand is how music depressing you (not that I really think RH does) is a bad thing. It could just not affect you at all, and thus be worthless.

Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted March 28, 2003 who gives a shit about the name of the record? really, if the music rules then the album name will soon be synonymous with "*****". if the music eats a dick then no witty title will save the record. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has a point. Black Sabbath could've called Paranoid something along the lines of "Ass Ticklers Faggots Fan Club", and it'd still be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True. I wasn't pre-judging the album; I hated the title, and started a thread about it. Oh, and Sigur Ros is great live. Everything leading up to the encore was good, but that encore...the encore was one of the most glorious, beautiful moments I've ever experienced live. I haven't seen Radiohead live, though I'd definitely check them out the next time I get the chance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest goodhelmet Report post Posted March 29, 2003 ok, i thought you really were pre-judging the album because of the title. i felt it was my duty to chime in and stop the insanity. hey, that gives me an idea abouta new thread..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
