Paranoid Android Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I liked them up until OK Computer, which is one of my favourite albums of all time. For me they've gone downhill since then though, too weird and experimental.I'm not sure if this post is supposed to be a joke or not.... And what does angular mean in regards to music? I know music journos liked to use the term to describe those guitar bands popular circa 2005 but really I have no idea. So now it's going to be a pet hate of mine.And just to annoy Nef, Radiohead are my favourite group and Kid A is my favourite album EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.And what is flying wok? something like this http://www.woktowalk.com/ I love these places.

kirsten Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Someone I sort of know has set up a blog about being a marketing graduate. The phrase "Think of yourself as a brand" is used in one of the entries. She is 21 years old, this is very bleak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really prompt a great deal of emotion or appreciation from me, I guess. I don't really read enough music journalism to know what they mean by it.Also, you're a fucking DICKHEAD!

FOX Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Aye, I think "angular" is journo-talk for "sounds like The Strokes".I was actually listening to Kid A last night for no particularly good reason and yeah, it's not the most involving album, but it's decent enough background music. "Idioteque" is smashing, the rest of the album is bland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Flying wok is a thai van that do thai dishes. It's very delicious. I love Sandwiches too and if I could pick an amazing sandwich over amazing thai. I'd pick the one wit da bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Milner Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I never really heard the appeal with Radiohead, they have a few cracking songs, but nothing that makes them the demi-gods MNE claims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 NME have hated on them loads but still talk about them lots because they've got a big fan base and will increase sales / site hits.If you want real idol worship, read the pitchfork review of Kid A. It's bloody hilarious.http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/6656-kid-a/I can't believe that writer is not embarrassed by that now............although he got the score right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaaakkkeee Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I really like them. Haven't got an album though. Only one I bought was In Rainbows. I read all the things about the number 10 and shit and it's pretty cool. Need to get round to buying the rest of their stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid A is fucking ace. End of.Pet hate - Oyster catchers. We've got a couple of the big beaked bastards nesting in the front of the showroom. They shite all over the two main doors to the building and constantly make a racket. Cunts.I also hate the folk that come into the showroom and say 'Have you seen you've got a bird nest outside?'.OF COURSE I FUCKING HAVE! My office window is clarted in bird shit and every two seconds I hear them chirping. On top of that for the past 2 weeks I've had to wash shit off the front steps every fucking morning.To top it off it's a fucking ace day outside and I'm trapped indoors in a office. If I open my window it sounds like a Bill Odie wet dream with all the birds floating about. Holy shit I'm in a bad mood. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Milner Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 That comment was the biggest dissapointment I ever heard.It was pish!! I never understood where the rest of the band fitted in with that album, it just sounded like Thom York and a few keyboards going for it.

Moose Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I've never really given Kid A a chance. I'll listen to it tonight and let you know if it's good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 "Angular" used to be used to describe bands that have alot of shifting time signatures. Now it seems to be some kind of buzz word that has no meaning. Like "Post hardcore" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
