I have been seeing a lot of talk about radiohead on the forums and around the web recently so I decided to check them out. Don't care much for it except for one song which is tolerable. But I just dont get the music. People say they are very famous, wide known, influential. I just dont get it. Its kind of eccentric music, the type that I could only assume would have a cult following rather than a an appeal like Oasis had. In my opinion most of their songs sound similar to one another. If I had to give a comparison to another band this reminds me of it would be Mr Bungle(USA Band) which had really eccentric music, or what I would call eccentric.
I guess what I am trying to understand is the hype about Radiohead. I think they are really overrated. The only thing I can throw them is originality. I am just giving my opinion and wondering if anyone out there agrees or thinks I am a total loon.
