I'm yelling about it everywhere I talk about music, but I can't get over how good this Hayley Mary cover of a Lana Del Rey song is. https://youtu.be/K9wDq1gYJgw I like LDR well enough, but this blows the original out of the water imo.

DC Murderverse posted:Lol everyone pretending that lyricism didn’t peak with “my pussy takes like Pepsi cola” Lana has used both Pepsi and Coca-Cola in various other songs. I think she just used it because it sounded better to her. I'll admit the last three Lana albums have been real hit-or-miss and continue on the trajectory of miss. Chemtrails, White Dress, Tulsa Jesus Freak, and Breaking Up Slowly are the only songs that grab me in any sense off the latest. Like I said, I like the first three great for me, label hosed with the fourth too much, and Antonoff bores the poo poo out of me production-wise no matter who he works with even though the new St. Vincent is good, it probably could have been better without Antonoff just like the rest of them perhaps the exception is CRJ. Unfortunately my favorite female pop artist in the past few years has been Kim Petas, who works with Dr. Luke pretty much exclusively. :\ Solomon Gumball fucked around with this message at 07:18 on Apr 18, 2021 |

I have to admit that I’ve always been kind of “meh” about Radiohead, but with all the accolades I can’t help but feel like I’m missing something. I’m going to listen to their entire discography this week, but should I go chronologically or order the albums differently?

If you go chronologically, bear in mind the first two albums are bad depending on your tolerance for dreary britpop.

I have a friend who has similar taste as me but hates Radiohead. I love nearly everything on The Bends through In Rainbows, and some great b sides. They really lost me on King of Limbs and on though, and a lot of their live show with it. So wish I could’ve seen them back in the 00’s.

# ? Apr 19, 2021 07:03 |

I wouldn’t call The Bends bad at all, but also you can’t go wrong just starting with OK Computer Also IMO watching them perform live is really impressive. Arena rock doesn’t always translate great to video but this is a really cool performance in a low key setting: https://youtu.be/DWuAn6C8Mfc

I think you can be a Radiohead fan and only like three of their albums. I only own two I think. Hate the song Creep, love There There. And Thom Yorke was on a top 3 Space Ghost episode.

I'm eh on Radiohead itself, but I love the work they've done without each other. Greenwood's soundtrack work, Yorke's soundtrack for Suspiria, etc. It's all great, imo. I saw the NZ Symphony Orchestra doing a Greenwood piece a few years ago and it was one of the best things I've ever experienced.

There are many different opinions about what Radiohead’s peak was, but it was definitely between OK Computer (1997) and In Rainbows (2007). Everything before and after is significantly worse.

OK Computer is probably the ideal intro to Radiohead, so try that if you haven't. You'll probably recognize 1 or 2 of its best songs already, but on the off chance you don't, you're in for a treat. If you like that album but think "I wish they did more of the mellow and weird stuff" you're in luck! If you wish they would get a little more upbeat then you can probably just walk away

The Bends is one of the best rock albums. I guess some radiohead fans might not like it because it's.not reflective of the band they became. But it's an amazing album.

yes Just is one of the best Rock Songs of the decade imo

I think starting with the Bends would be a good place to start. It is a really strong album, and one where they really come into their own. Plus, it sets the stage for OK Computer, which really is an evolution of the Bends. You have an album where the band starts knowing exactly what they want to do, and while it's before the point where they get experimental, you can hear them pushing a little bit, like on Just. But if you really want to appreciate Radiohead - start with the "Pop is Dead" single. No matter what you think of their later work, you can agree that it's all a marked improvement from Pop is Dead.

Huh I thought I was the only one who only liked some Radiohead albums. OK Computer, Kid A and In Rainbows are fantastic. King of Limbs and A Moon Shaped Pool are atrocious. The rest are just okay.

Radiohead is a band that I can appreciate, and fully understand why others love them, but they just aren't for me. While I do enjoy OK Computer and Kid A, my favourite is Hail to the Thief. But, I only ever put on these albums every once in a while. e: to put it more succinctly, when I think of Radiohead, I think of them making some dreary sad rock that is not any fun. Whether this assessment is correct or not, I just do not feel the inclination to listen them often. Twin Cinema fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Apr 19, 2021 |

I still listen to In Rainbows the whole way through while stoned once or twice a year, and Electioneering is one of my favorite songs of all time. I also still jam out to Radiodread, which I realize isn’t really Radiohead but my favorite cover album of all time Nightmare Cinema posted:Although I will say the Live From The Basement versions of all the King Of Limbs tracks smack pretty hard. Oh man, I got drunk with a neighbor a year ago and he was telling me about this and I was like dude... King of Limbs sucks rear end. But this does slap and the opener with Bloom is fire when the horns start playing Edit: Kid A still kicks mega rear end too

A Moon Shaped Pool loving ruled The studio version of TKOL was mediocre, but the Basement version improved on it in literally every way, especially with the additions of Supercollider, Staircase, and The Daily Mail https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI5YMDioDBY
