Radiohead, Placebo, and Muse

[Bloody Loon]

Yeah yeah, they're not goth, but don't let it put your knickers in a twist.

But who likes any of the 3, or bands who have similar sounds? (Cake and Weezer come to mind.)

*cringes at the site of Muse's name being put in with those other, less-good bands*

I seriously wish folks would stop comparing Muse to Radiohead. I can understand why they do, but I tend to think Muse is -far- more innovative than Radiohead.

And I've no idea why "Placebo" was thrown in there. Is this a puzzle to figure out which of these bands don't belong...?

What.
Have you ever actually sat down and listened to ANY Radiohead album?

They consider themselves "muffins" instead of fans.
I'm not even kidding.

I thought they called themselved "plague rats".
Either way, they tend to be a bunch of dipshits

Yes. I didn't like it.

Why would I say that Muse is better than Radiohead if I'd never compared them for myself? That would just be silly. cool

Well, you're entitled to your opinion, though I don't see why you feel so venomously hateful towards anyone who listens to her music.

Did EA steal your cookies or something, little boy? I bet she did; she likes sweet things. wink

Edit: I don't know where either term started, but there's nothing wrong with us calling ourselves "Muffins" or "Plague Rats". If it bothers you that badly, then don't listen to her music.  

[Rellik San]

Muse sick big floppy donkey d**k, they sound like they want to be the far superior though lesser known 3 Colours Red.

Which is ironic, cos I saw muse supporting 3 Colours Red many many years ago, they sucked then, they suck now.

It puts you in the same class of low-life s**t stain as Juggalos and Maggots.

Yes I'm a low-life s**t stain, cos when I went seeing slayer supporting slipknot, I actually kind of enjoyed slipknot, they put on an old school stage show, had audience participation and yeah they called everyone a bunch of maggots, but hey, its all in good fun. Hell I even purchased an album afterwards. Clearly I am some form of scum for enjoying old school theatrics the likes of which would make KISS and GWAR proud.

EA stole EVERYONES cookies when the disolved Bullfrog and kept hold of the Dungeon Keeper franchise instead of selling it back to Lionhead.  

[MortSanglant]

First, I resent the statement that EA fans are dipshits. I love her music and her style, but I am no dipshit. But then again, I tend to be an exception.

Secondly, Muse and Radiohead are ridiculously similar in their musical styles. Radiohead has also been around a lot longer. And if you've ever read anything about Muse, they are heavily influenced by Radiohead.

Just sayin'.

Anyway, I love all three bands.
Order of love:
1. Placebo
2. Radiohead
[but that's a close second]
3. Muse  

[Maggoty Anne]

Radiohead put my knickers in a twist. I'm addicted to this song right now, it isn't a B-side or album release but an obscure collaboration. The B-sides are awesome, who doesn't have them yet?

Hahaha... Muse? Innovative? When their lyrics sound like this?

Follow through
Make your dreams come true
Don't give up the fight
You will be alright

I mean, Radiohead's best song lyrically has the amazing chorus of

Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around

but they pull it off perfectly. 'Cus they're Radiohead.
