Ok ok but I'm been thinking for awhile and this is the first time I've had an excuse to say it * flamesuit on *:

If you start at Violent Femmes and draw a straight line to Coldplay, you have to pass through Radiohead.

Been saying that for years. Same for Muse, although they took after different parts of Radiohead's ouvre. Never really felt anyone huge corresponded to the Kid A/Amnesiac stuff though. Nobody jumps out there.

That reminds me of a funny interview moment where some music journalist in the 2000’s asked Thom York, “So how to you respond to newer bands like Muse who are capitalizing on your sound?” And Thom goes, “Good luck with Kid A.”

Thom Yorke's media shenanigans in the 90s/early 00s are on par with Dylan in the 60s. Just clowning on them constantly.

Coldplay - radiohead lite.

Muse - radiohead heavy.

I know someone that would feel insulted by this

[-] Jarix@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Oh? Is that chris marten by chance or maybe matt bellamy?

Do you know why they would feel insulted?

Snow patrol - Coldplay light but also better strangely

Absolutely. Coldplay has always been a "poor man's" Radiohead.
