OVERHYPED? by whom? Since 2000 they've made almost no singles, no promo videos, no interviews, no MTV, no Super Bowl, no Oprah, no iPod, no commercials, etc, etc. Nowhere near as the amount of canned s*** that surround every new U2 release, Bono's moneytalks, Grammys and Rolling Stones magazine included :censored:


Overhyped by the elites or so-called "sophisticates." (Lazarus, 2008, 3).

Radiohead are actually underpromoted by the mainstream scene. Here's hoping the Greatest Hits does something to reverse this a wee bit. And that's not to say they should play at the Superbowl thing, or on Oprah. Just that they should be given better radio exposure. In Australia they get bugger all, except on the "indietastic" JJJ, who are a contradictory and hypocritical radio station.

What makes the whole thing immensely frustrating is that Radiohead's music is very accessible. Songs like Bodysnatchers, Idioteque, There There, Jigsaw should be allowed to have the mass reach and appeal that it is capable of.

The word of our lord.
Thanks be to Laz.

Does this make Lance's Mom the Virgin Mary? Or is that too funny to be true?

Since I was referring to Lazarus, it would have no reference to Lance's Mom. Unless laz and Lance are brothers, in which case I've missed something huge. :wink:

In a Big Brother program kind of way.
