Visiting from Shat’s blog and Arthur’s Hall,

As someone who was never really a big fan of radiohead, and has bot OK-Computer and Kid-A, I prefer Kid-A. I think Shat would probably like it better then the former as well.’

Also, its “Master of Puppets” lol…. although Destruction of Puppies and Appetite for Puppies are both great metal band names.

You know… you can call me a conservative or a libertarian… both are fine. But calling me a Republican is just kinda mean. You don’t want to be mean do you?

@B-rent Yes. I find listening to it when it’s turned to “11″ is a best practice, too.

@Shatner (aka, Lucas) I am also not too familiar with Yield. Maybe I’ll go with the stereotype I’ve been put into in this, pretentious indie rock. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco? Yoshimi or the Soft Bulletin by the Flaming Lips? Spoon’s Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga?Hip Hop? It takes a nation of Millions to Hold us back? MMJ’s Z? Or stay with Radiohead and you can listen to their other classic, “kid a”. Not sure, yet.

Okay… I’ve managed to get my hands on OK Computer without any money actually landing in Radiohead’s pockets. This shit is on.

I’ve seen Pearl Jam live… and they do write some good rock music. I’m not familiar with what songs are on Yield however.

What? OK Computer is like a grand slam in the first inning. I just turned on OK Computer and went right to my favorite song, Let Down. It’s damn perfect. The syncopation, harmony, build…does this music “kick ass”? No. Maybe that’s where it falls short in this debate. To arm that argument, I think my next album of choice for entry would be Pearl Jam’s Yield.
