Sometimes, I hear a new record by a fairly new artist (ie, Doves, Coldplay...), and I'll think they may end up being one of my favourite bands one day, maybe even a favourite. However, everytime I happen to see a U2 video, or experience a U2 moment (such as seeing and feeling '40' transform Red Rocks into a mystical and spiritual ritual, as it does on that video), I remember exactly why no other band in the world even comes close - not even Radiohead.

Most U2 fans I know love Radiohead, but I'm afraid vice-versa aint looking so good.
There is nothing worse than a Radiohead fan that hates U2!
Both bands have shared the same sort of career with their experimentalism and evolution.
But what I hate is dumb ass Radiohead fans that don't acknowledge this for U2, but claim that Radiohead are the one and only band to do this.
Yeah, and what's really going to burn their bottoms, is that Radiohead are about to release a pop album, with LOTS of guitars!!! hahahaha! Apparently, the new songs are three minute pop songs, all designed to be singles. Sounds very ATYCLBish, doesn't it? I wish people would realize that this is not selling out. Radiohead and U2 have experimented with their sound so much, that of course they are bound to want to record an album full of catchy tunes now and then. Why do people feel the need to crucify bands that simply want to enjoy making music for a change?Zoomerang96 said:i agree prodigy. radiohead fans on the net at least, believe that if a band uses a guitar for any conventional purposes (for instance, to play it) then they have sold out and arent original.
meanwhile they sit in their basement waiting for the next star wars to come out as their parents beg them to get their 30 year old ass out of their house and find a job.
Actually, he made a point of saying that this time it wasn't tongue-in-cheek. The full quote was, "As I always say it?s gonna be an album of three minute pop songs. That?s what they always say but that?s what it is this time.?JOFO said:actually Michael, that statement about 3 minute pop songs by ed o'brien is a tongue-in-cheek statement....the question was what will the new album sound like and ed said:
"I'll tell you what I say before each album release; it's all 3 minute pop songs".
judging by last summer's concerts, none of the new tunes fit that description.
however, anything is possible and subject to change in the rh world.
