Not that great of a band as some people with horrible taste in music say.
You will like this band if you are...
1. Depressed
2. Fan of noise
3. Into listening to a weird ugly ass dude who can't sing
4. Fan of guitarist who used distorted guitar with no skill
5. Into listening to synthesizers and other varieties of ways to distract the listeners from realizing that the music actually sucks major ass
6. A mindless kid who likes mainstream watches MTV everyday
Radiohead is not musically talented. They just got lucky thanks to MTV.

Named after the Talking Heads song of the same name. Have evolved from angst-fuelled noise/driblings into a kind of a post Floyd sideshow.

Overrated and stale alternative rock band who have made a career off of writing the same album over and over again.

A favorite among whiny pretentious emo kids and hipsters who think they know shit about music.
Radiohead are bland and dull.

A person who works for an audio broadcasting system. Possibly Austrailian in origin. In a documentary starring ABBA (of all bands) an Austrailian man with a mike and a tape recorder (the size of an extra large breadbox) comes up to Bjorn, Sven or Svven or whatever the fuck his name is and says "I'm a radiohead. I was wondering if you can answer a few questions for our broadcast". Radiohead (the band) has nothing to do with Abba. The word was merely used in a documentary, so don't freak the fuck out. This was also long before Talking Heads, so I don't think they were the first to put 'radio' next to 'head' without a space.
I'm a radiohead. My job is to ask you about your inspriation for "Fernando" and what's up with all the white?

1. an overrated chump Britpop band that got great success and critical adulation in the fucking PC 90s and still gets it today. Singer Thom Yorke whines lyrics full of angst and painful references. The other players ain't so hot either. They first hit it big with "The Bends" in 1995 and their 1997 album "O.K. Computer" was declared a "classic", comparable with the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" and Pink Floyd's "The Wall". Yeah, right. 2000's "Kid A" has also been declared a "masterpiece", but that just shows what a wasteland popular music has become. That album is just pompous, pretentious crap. Radiohead is a critical "darling" favorite just like that other Britpop dud, Oasis. Ha ha ha.

2. "Radio Head" is a cool, catchy number found on the 1986 album "True Stories" by the unique American New Wave band Talking Heads. The song title inspired the name of the overrated British band.
1. Radiohead gets compared to U2 and Pink Floyd alot and that is a crock of shit. Their music is just artsy-fartsy tedium with whiny vocals. All their albums are boring rubbish.

2. The song "Radio Head" is pumped up by a guest accordion player. Get the "True Stories" CD and check out this and the other fine cuts on this album.
