*that "sideways" box thing was autocorrect. What's a sideways box? Anyway it was supposed to say "sideless," but that doesn't really describe it either.

That was one of my favs back when I used to listen to The Bends a lot, hmm.. don't remember how many years ago.

By the way, Radiohead is still relevant and a lot of young people love them (including myself). So grandpa music it's not. Not all quiet music is for middle agers.

You're young louder? Good for you, man!

I was gonna say, who among us is not at least starting to approach middle age? Seriously... If you remember Nirvana and Tim Burton's Batman and the fucking George H.W. Bush administration, you're pushing 40. Radiohead is "for" anyone who likes them, but their core audience is late '30s by now.

They're doing a damn site better than Pink Floyd circa the fucking Division Bell, I'll tell you that much. Because I remember that shitty album, 'cause I'm fucking ancient. ;)

Cause thank goodness the kids have Ariana Grande and Drake to show them what real rock n roll is these days. Over the last six months or more most of the rock albums worth getting have been from bands who were popular 20-25 years ago. Take Radiohead out of this and you still have bands like Faith No More and Sleater-Kinny, you might think they are past their prime, or not worth listening to anymore but what bands do teens have these days? They're all listening to Ariana Grande and Drake.

Severian 05.15.2016 01:42 PM

I feel a little bad about dissing Black Star. I used to love that song... back when I loved, like, "Mayonnaise" by Smashing Pumpkins. The Bends was one of my favorite records for years and years. I even preferred it to OK Computer for a while.

Most of that had to do with the the first four songs. I still think "High and Dry" holds up. So does "Street Spirit." But on the whole it's just way too mid-90's and "Black Star" has to be the most generic track on the album. Last time I tried to listen to it I think I burst out laughing.

That's bound to happen with bands you get into as a kid and stick with into your 30's. Hasn't happened with Nirvana, or early Beck, or Sonic Youth. But those artists were too good for me to really grasp in my teens. I had to live life a bit before I really appreciated them. And unlike Nirvana (who obviously peaked and checked out) and Beck (who went slowly downhill from Odelay until he started to go rapidly downhill in '08) and Sonic Youth (who had already achieved perfection and were merely riffing on it with Washing Machine), Radiohead were still embryonic in '95/'96. It's forgivable, considering what they went onto accomplish, that those first two albums are fraught with clichés and missteps. They were not on the same trajectory as SY or Nirvana, both of whom came out of the gate throwing pure fire.

Radiohead could have been Oasis. I don't actually think they surpassed Blur until '03. They had to break the mold that they were born into. Thankfully they did. So "Black Star" is forgivable.
