Zaphod Chizzlebrox Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Radiohead win, because they have Colin Greenwood. Watch him whenever Radiohead play a gig and he's the person having the most fun in the whole world without a shadow of a doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mobius Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Just found something I posted YEARS back. NME did a front page with Thom Yorke jsut after showbiz was released and it said underneath. "Bellamy, you and me, on the dancefloor, bitch!" or something along that vein. Spooky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDanooch Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Muse are heavier, and more of a rock band. Radiohead are much more experimental and like ambient sounding. But they do have their share of heavyish songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haze015 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 So Radiohead are less of a rock band than Muse? Muse are definitely a rock band (They only have a couple of songs that don't have a rock element to them), Radiohead have plenty of songs which aren't rock at all. That said, I can't take the opinions of anyone using the term "experimental" seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never said Muse WEREN'T a rock band, just find it funny how it's when Muse are starting to STRAY from Rock is when that particular comment is made. /irony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock isn't restricted to guitar, bass, drums & riffs. The Gallery is the furthest Muse has ever gone from Rock and it was a Showbiz/OOS B-side (Can't remember which off the top of my head) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raiko Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 "But Kid A is one of the most creative and experimental electronic records of all time!" I don't agree with that myself, but its definately one of the most recognised experimental albums out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nohopeinfear Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Radiohead use textures and layers more in their music. Â Ugh I really dislike that kind of example, it's like saying "Yeah I painted the wall this colour but I had to use about 10 coats to get the right shade" Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you paint 10 layers on a wall you cover up everything else so all you get is the topcoat. That's not how it happens in music. You should listen to one of the best examples of musical layering that Radiohead have done, Arpeggi/Weird Fishes. Starts off simple then builds up to a fantastic crescendo through adding little bits as it goes on. It's a very accomplished artform and there aren't many bands that can do layering well.

syzygy Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 ^^I agree, when layering is down well, it's the most beautiful thing in music. I think Muse did it pretty alright in Exogenesis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still sounds like a fancy painter and decorator to me tbh. Just tell it like it is, bloody good music regardless, I like both bands (Even though I adore Muse much more) and Radiohead are like a Tiramisu, layered, fancy and equal parts sweet and bitter whereas Muse are like a Sara Lee gateaux, big, filling, yet simple and satisfying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
