It really bugs me how some feel Radiohead can be added to that elite group of bands/musicians...their catalogue isn't remotely as strong as the Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin etc, in terms of the overall strength of the albums themselves, but also the individual songs. How mahy Radiohad songs can be seen as memorable classics? a dozen tops, maybe..the bands I mentioned prior have at 2 to 3 or even 4 times as many.... Also Radiohead aren't as experimental as their fans like to think, either..theyhaven't changed music. Heck, I still think U2 need one more masterpiece besides the new one, JT and AB to be evn thought of with the very best bands, and yet they are leagues ahead of the Oxford miserabilists

The down side of HTDAAB is that its all too catchy and melodic, and sounds too much like what U2 have done before. The down side to HTTT is that the album is tooooo down, beautiful moments on it (Sail To The Moon) but an overall depressing feel to it and not enough uplifting moments. I would say that both albums are about even. Definetly don't compare with either bands best albums (Achtung Baby, OK Computer).

Damn. It must suck to hate The Beatles, with all their catchy and melodic music.

Not a big fan of The Beatles. Never have been. "She Loves You" was not one of the biggest songs of the 60's, wouldn't you say. I have never compared U2 to the beatles. Obviously your a fan of putting on an album and doing the ironing while your not really listening to it. Music is for listening to, but U2 have become a band with their latest album where you don't have to really listen to it, and when you do it becomes boring. They have become a band where every track on an album has to have a catchy chorus, they never used to be like that. And when people say that U2 are better song writers now(as Lilywhite has said recently) then they are talking out of their arse!!!!!

1. The Beatles were technically some of the greatest musicians of their time. All of their albums from Rubber Soul on until Abbey Road are some of the most complex and finely-crafted (excluding maybe the White Album) albums of the past 40 years. And people call Radiohead experimental? The Beatles were the first to do almost everything! Listen to Srgt. Pepper's and try to tell me how on Earth they made that in 1967, it's really remarkable.
