I think what we have here is completely different tastes in music. I like things that go outside the realms of normality.

I respect your opinion, though.

Paranoid Android is on Lithium right now. Making myself listen. Not sure how it's even considered a song. It has no song elements.

So you must not consider "jazz" music then, huh?

Jazz is terrible. Steely Dan is awesome.

I think an appreciation for Jazz requires drugs I have yet to try.

Here is an issue I have with Radiohead, and this applies to other bands as well.

When people talk about Radiohead they mention these great albums, but they can't mention any great songs. I actually love love love Karma Police and I like jigsaw falling into place. Some people like Creep but I think that song blows. Anyway, just generally speaking, when people refer to a band by albums instead of by tracks, my first inclination is that the band in question probably isn't worth their weight in dogshit.

Oasis, on the other hand, has tracks that one can quickly rattle off: wonderwall, champagne supernova, don't look back in anger, stop crying your heart out, little by little, etc. These are songs that you don't have to listen to 12 times before you realize they're good.

There are a few ways this can be interpreted. Can you help me out and maybe write a complete sentence for me?

That is a complete sentence.

If you dont "get" a bands music, then fine. Trying to discredit a band because you dont get it is just dumb. Just move on.

And just so that we're clear, you listing out their entire catalog song by song doesn't change the fact that Radiohead is always always discussed on an album-by-album basis.

You could multiply that list by just shy of 3. That is not their catalogue. It´s off the top of the head.

Well, your reasoning here is absolutely retarded, but yes, you tried to use the fact that Radiohead has great, whole albums to discredit the quality of the songs on each album.

Like I said, don't think. You aren't very good at at it in this context.
