i challenge you to a duel, a radiohead duel of sorts to see which is the hardcore-er fan.
i am waiting

Yeah I'm pretty hardcore.... not as much as I used to be... but still obsessed.

I've got all there albums, a poster, meeting people is easy on VHS, all their b-sides on two CDS, IMBW live ep and a biographical book.

Oh and I bought the book "No Logo" in part cos they promoted it... *sigh*, its still a bloody good book though...

And I checked out a group called "Autechre" which is an influence for Kid A and Amnesiac they recommended.... They're now one of my favourite groups...

LOL!
Thats awesome..... my hair is shite, and it refuses to grow properly so I can only have it short.... :/ well, maybe I could shave it and look like the drummer

Oh, I forgot to ad I have the Radiohead "shrug" blue T-shirt... which I wear all the time as well... it set me back $55 though....

 

[um..]

hahah you're comparing radiohead merchandise

i hope you realise the irony

radiohead are a fucking contradiction in themselves but

 

[yeahyeahyeahs]

thom yorke and pj harvey- "this mess we're in" has gotta be one of the best collaborations of all time! so much fuckin depth in a song its overwhelming.

If Jesus was so perfect how come he died?

Theres your contradiction right there.

Well this deserves a bump, cos I just got the There There single!

Good fucking stuff. There There is a great fucking single... sounds a bit like the Bends and OK Computer put together... mixed with some new sounds...

I love the chorus bit "Just cos you feel it... Doesn't mean its there...".

The two b-sides that came with it were great as well... similar to Kid A and Amnesiac stuff, which is good, cos I thought they would abandon that electronic stuff... which would suck.

The single is out here? This will probably be the first single I have bought in about 5 years. What are the names of the B-sides on the single?

and out of the two, Paperbag Writer is better... Bluebirds is pretty good, but the ambient and vocals don't mesh well with the beats and stuff....

Go to sleep? What about backdrifts and 2+2=5?

What sorta plan you got... it doesn't cost much for unlimited download and hours... I only pay $25 p/month... and theres plans as low as $10 for the same...

Anyways the point is I've downloaded the album with my crappy 56K... problem is I can't bring myself to listen to it....
