Radiohead - The new Pink Floyd?

Whadya mean?

i mean its kind of a jump to say that the end of paranoid android sounds like the end to a saucerful of secrets.

Not really the end of the song, but the part with all the harmony vocals. I know the end of the song returns to the main riff... but the part before that sounds a bit like ASoS.

yeah i knew what you meant. i did type "the end of paranoid android" but i knew what part you were talking about. "rain down, rain down, from a great height..."

Yep. That's the part I'm talking about.

Even if it doesen't sound like ASoS, then it is still a great part.

:santasmil:

Yeah, I know that has nothing to do with Radiohead, but it seems pretty odd.

Nope, I would know by enjoying the products of the creative spirit without any drugs.

BTW, early on in the thread I mentioned which songs give me the chills for resembling (though usually slightly) the Floyd. I forgot one. There's a part at the end of "Climbing up the Walls" that to me is strongly evocative of the Floyd: the "siren" noise reminds me of Welcome to the Machine--and I don't know of any particular song that organ sounds like, but I'm assuming it's Hammond or meant to sound like one, and it's like a creepy echo of the Floyd. Sort of understated in the way it's applied, which is probably what gives it the resemblance...

They have said that they like the Floyd. Or at least Jonny Greenwood has.

then its not really "they" then is it?

I just thought...

...took your time about it



meh

I don't know, I'm just saying that I know he likes them.

then maybe you shouldn't have used they is all i'm saying.

Oh. Stupid me.

there there. cheer up charlie.

The labeling of Radiohead as the new PF has been well documented. But it is unfair for Radiohead. I think they follow the same experimental pattrens of the Floyd (which is great), and Tom has said he is a big fan.

To me a band like Incubus also follows that pattern without being "the new PF".
