If you thought I wouldn't post this at every opportunity I had you were sorely mistaken.

DNA kills everything ever

i am going to destroy my defense of RADIOHEAD with this juicy (read: blackmail material) video of the band back in 1994 when they played at the MTV Beach House (anyone else remember this? we used to cruise by there on the regular to gawk); of particular interest is Thom's bleach blonde ponytail:

C33sywpotnw

it has been some long time since i viewed this one but i used to have it dubbed on a VHS so that i could laugh at it for hours, clutching my aching sides

[mrip]

always a radio head concept (thom yeezy)

[denimdestroyedmylife]

ah that was just as funny as i remember 2:50 on......

[sawyer]

i can't relate to this debate, a bunch of dudes that started playing music twenty years ago don't have much on my brothers in smokeytown and tha tribe

songs are thousands of years old, pre-dating gregorian chant, the greek bards and chinese court music

drums like northern cree occasionally sing these at traditional powwows and they still sound fresh as ever

[WayneGibbous]

radiohead pre-bends was (admittedly) very embarrassing. and i don't even buy into the whole 'bends' cult either. that album was good, but very whiny and instrumentally simple.

my nigga. (weezy)

[denimdestroyedmylife]

in the radiohead bio-pic the part of thom yorke will be played by richard the third

[jayrock]

whenever a person tells me they listen to radiohead/coldplay/davemathews, i lose a little bit of respect for them

[littleomar]

i'm gonna have to go with Ditka on this one

DNA kills everything ever

I feel like DNA is one of those bands you have to say you like just because they are so obscure, and hip, kind of like throbbing gristle. I like the swell maps better

[isoform]

I like the swell maps better

muchbetter.yes. and pere ubu.

[playdisonlyatnight]

throbbing gristle

Do sufu ppl like throbbing gristle, psychic tv, coil???

[denimdestroyedmylife]

^ certainly

and liquid liquid

[malaesthetique]

do ppl like clock DVA, pankow, DAF?

[kunk75]

^yes, and coil and ajax and in the nursery and nurse with wound and cabaret voltaire and any good old wax trax stuff and al jourgensen side projects, especially revco.

[kunk75]

yeah, late 80s early 90s industrial bands.

Whys that? Is it the fact that all three bands are mainstream? Someone can't genuinely like any one of those bands?

I mean you don't have to like those bands but what does respect have anything to do with it? I really DISLIKE Coldplay but I wouldn't disrespect someone if they were a fan, I'd just tell them that I think the band that they like sucks.

[WayneGibbous]

kunk is a goth kid from waaay back

dude if you can't genuinely hate someone because of their music, then you don't genuinely love music.

one of these things is not like the other...

[malaesthetique]

^yes, and coil and ajax and in the nursery and nurse with wound and cabaret voltaire and any good old wax trax stuff and al jourgensen side projects, especially revco.

I'm chillin' with you next time i go to NYC. Ever been to the weird records parties at Home Sweet Home on Wednesdays? I took Dark and Westside with me last month and it was great.

[Liberation1945]

def dave mathews cause

radiohead = coldplay on mars

coldplay = radiohead on venus

[Joshua James Barry]

^yes, and coil and ajax and in the nursery and nurse with wound and cabaret voltaire and any good old wax trax stuff and al jourgensen side projects, especially revco.

The crackdown by cabaret voltaire is better than radioheads entire catalogue

[WayneGibbous]

def dave mathews cause

radiohead = coldplay on mars

coldplay = radiohead on venus

def radiohead cuz

dave matthews = dirty hippie and frat boy jam band circa 2000

coldplay = radiohead wannabes with zero talent

[↓ Is The New ↑]

dude if you can't genuinely hate someone because of their music, then you don't genuinely love music.

Dude, who said I genuinely "love" music? I like music but music isn't everything.

So are you saying since YOU or someone else loves music oh so much that you can completely despise and not respect someone because they listen to a band you hate? Great for you I suppose.

[jamers]

any band with jonny greenwood is automatically the best band on earth

[Liberation1945]

yo hows about we not talk about politics, literature, and music on sufu from now on...juzz cluthing daz it. how bout it?

[↓ Is The New ↑]

^I'm alright with that. I'm getting too argumentative.

[malaesthetique]

yes, lets compartmentalize all our opinions on superficially disparate matters so that we can never be criticized for harboring incompatible or incoherent beleifs. (5.555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555567)

"the unity of things is the essence of truth, but some will try to rule the universe by force" +rep if you catch the lumberjack band reference.
