You don't like.....but John....this could have a bad affect on our relationship. We'll talk later, don't make a scene.

I don't mind them so much now, but 20, 25 years ago all the talk about the band really fucked me off. It was like they were positioned by 'real music fans' as a kind of thinking-person's-alternative-to-Oasis. Thom Yorke's persona didn't help matters much, either - bit like Stipe but with even less personality.
I don't hear much in the way of great music either. There are bits there, some cool riffs maybe. But they swim in and out, and of course there's always that miserable, anaemic vocal wailing over the top.

Fans that rolled their eyes alot, but there's fans like this for most bands. I love them for their diversity in music. Sometimes when you hear someone is they're a mighty Radiohead fan, you kinda have to ask them which period or group of albums. The mighty Radiohead find and lose fans all the time with the changes in their music.

I was on a packed train years ago with a hoodie and a rucksack and my "nice"hair, Radiohead were playing a gig in Edinburgh and the train was taking us all back to Glasgow.
A group of guys came on who were rather loutish but not quite football hooligan.
They started trying to chat up a group of girls in the carriage.
One of their friends showed up drunk, joined the group and pointed at me exclaiming:
"Guess who's just come back from the Radiohead gig!!!Ah ha ha ha"
I was mortified as I was in fact returning from the Edinburgh Film Festival having watched the classic "Little Murders" and some obscure French thriller.

too bad Alan Arkin hasn't directed more movies. It's actually a great film. Almost every scene has stayed with me, very powerful. There was a director there who gave a great intro talking about how you wouldn't be allowed to make a film with such a bleak ending.... The French film was a lotta pish a metaphor for Algeria but was set in a kitchen with two couples arguing.....

Karma Police epitomises that mopey, dreary side of Radiohead.
If you like that, you should love everything!

It is kind of mopey, but there's something conventional about it (chord sequence, slamming drum pattern) which I prefer over the electronica. There's a solid tune there. I really like the final section with the wheezing noise. Wee bit like 'That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore' in that regard.

OK G.
Why don't you suggest a song you like by them?
