And if Radiohead are the godfathers of current music then the future looks bleak if their previous two outings are anything to go by. I just didn't get it but maybe i'm too cynical. ”
Radiohead's last two outings were inspired mainly by Aphex Twin, and other kinds of music like that, that they listen to.
They are evolving and changing and sounding different every album, which is something that all credible musicians should do.
U2 however, are credible but are just producing the same tired ld crap. Thats a band I can't understand. The lyrics aren't very good, even if they do "make a point", the music is junior school like at best... I just don't get how a band can write music for 20 years and only have the POP album show diversity and progression... and even when that flopped... did they stick to their artist integrity?? no, they just pumped out more purile boring crap.
Lest we not forget, Sweetest Thing was released 15 years after it was written, and it sounded as fresh as the rest of their music since.
