Radiohead is erased from the internet

I haven't listened to a lot of Radiohead, but what I have heard leads to word association:

Radiohead = pretentious.

I hope you're not implying that being pretentious is a bad thing. To be a successful performer takes a certain amount of pretentiousness.
 
Just about all modern music marketing has nothing to do with the music and everything to do with the artist/image/outrage. That is what sells music to the public. The music may in fact be high quality and the artist talented, or it could be low quality shite (as is more often the case). In an age of social media overload and 15 second sound bites putting out an album of well written and performed music is not enough to get the music heard unless you are a legacy artist from the 90s or earlier who has a built in audience.

I wish this was not true, but it is. Some artists do manage to forge a successful career via the route of talent and staying with an indy label - and getting lucky. But they are the exception.
You're too thoughtful. It's in everyone's best interest to desist.
 
Radiohead more than most understand the major lift and the minor fall...Thom and the bois understand the relationship, the yin/yang aspect of good music


 
On that note I couldn't tell you the name of a single tune the did before I just checked out some samples. This band is totally off my radar.
 
the percussion in this and the space....ooo la la :love:



Yes the percussion and the space are nice.

The rest sucks though...from the 14 year old tuning his guitar when the guit first comes in (it reminded me of the Asian dude on one of the Idol shows "imagine there's no heaven" *plink plink plink* "it's easy if you try" *plink plink plink*)


to that guy from Bronski Beat singing at the start...:chow2:

 
My group GuitCussion will release our second CD next week, called "Exit Wonderland".
But we have also decided not to publish anything on the Internet.
I will keep all the CDs at home.
No one will hear a tune from that CD.
