I keep stating this to people and they just can't grasp it; and that is, Radiohead is music that can be enjoyed by machines. What I mean are androids (highly advanced robots) it stimulates their cognitional properties, where the mass network of wires turn to a purple glow. You can tell the android likes the music because it stays inside a trance.

They need this on an album cover or something ;)

I like Radiohead a lot, one of the few non-classical music groups I listen to.

I liked them in the South Park episode "Scott Tenorman Must Die".

I love Radiohead. Thom Yorke is a genius.

I'm going to check them out at some point.

I heard of them but not their music, as they are a kind of influence (I think) on one of my other favourite bands Muse.

Great South Park episode, but I think it featured the song "Creep" - from Radiohead's early days as derivitive post-grungers. Not much good came out of the real early days of the band.

I really like "OK Computer" (just because it's a great record) and "Amnesiac".

dgd1788 - Does what you are saying have scientific proof? I'd be interested to see it.

I am not a big Radiohead fan; they are OK and have some good moments.
I think Thom Yorke's solo album is better than any Radiohead album.

One of my favourite bands in my college days were Echo & The Bunnymen.
I think they were a big influence on Radiohead.
I would recommend 'Crocodiles', 'Heaven Up Here', 'Porcupine' and 'Ocean Rain' to all you Radiohead people. You probably have these already.

GREATEST BAND EVER
My favourite song of theirs is probably Climbing Up the Walls, or I Might Be Wrong, or Idioteque, or There There, or ...

I also remember reading on Wikipedia a while ago that Thom has AS but now I can't find it.

I haven't found anything I really like from them except "OK Computer". That album is just pure greatness, and it definitely goes down in my book as one of my favorite albums I've ever listened to. Oh, and... If any of you want a really surreal experience, you should put on some Winamp visualizations and play it on your computer in a dark room.
