Andy Erased Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Muse couldn't write an album as good as OK Computer ever, the closest they got was OoS. Come on, when was the last time you listened to OK C all the way through? It starts off alright & gradually becomes more and more awful. The Bends is a far better album. Oh, & Absolution is a better album than OOS anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mneme Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Although I do love Radiohead and they aren't from Oxford. I thought they were. Or at least they all met at the Abingdon School, didn't they? Muse couldn't write an album as good as OK Computer ever, the closest they got was OoS. Really, there's no telling. And besides, I'm just happy to have OoS.

spark_ Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I would sooner listen to OKC all the way through than OOS or Abso, because OKC doesn't have any painfully average tracks near the end which make me press skip - which OOS and Abso do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Erased Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 because OKC doesn't have any painfully average tracks near the end which make me press skip - which OOS and Abso do. Agreed with the OOS & Abso comments. However, and this is just opinion... If you take Airbag, Paranoid Android, Karma Police & Lucky off of OK C*, painfully average is all that remains. *and yes, those songs do make up a significant percentage of the record, but how it can regularly top 'best album ever' lists with 4 great songs is totally beyond my comprehension...

I actually think a lot of the songs you left off are better than those songs - not that they're in any way bad songs, but I rate OKC lower than most. Completely blown out of the water by almost everything they've written after it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haze015 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I thought they were. Or at least they all met at the Abingdon School, didn't they? Abingdon school is in Abingdon, which is a small town just outside Oxford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only bands that should spend that much time on riffs and jams are the ones with one or two albums, not five albums and like 30 b-sides...

Mozza Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Ranking the Muse and Radiohead albums by my preferences: Origin of Symmetry OK Computer In Rainbows Absolution Kid A The Bends Amnesiac Hail to the Thief The Resistance Showbiz Black Holes and Revelations Pablo Honey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi. Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Another festival,another crap setlist. Replacing Feeling Good with either AP or SD would improve the setlist so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiko Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Origin of Symmetry In Rainbows OK Computer Black Holes and Revelations Kid A Amnesiac Absolution The Resistance Hail to the Thief The Bends Showbiz Pablo Honey That would be my list, not that anyone would care lol. I used to rate Kid A as Radioheads best album, but then In Rainbows came about, and then I came to realise that Kid A isn't as flowing as other albums and i'd swap in some other songs from that period.
