I love this kind of Music. Radiohead is awesome, and Sigur Ros is pretty cool, although I believe I have lost my Sigur Ros tape. Radiohead is definitely one of my favorite bands. My dad introduced me to them, kind of liek a lot of my music. Kinda wierd I guess.

Radiohead- yeah, they are really creative, but nothing sucks me into their music. Just too far out for me I guess. Karma Police and Creep are the only songs I really listen to by them.
Pink Floyd--- Now there is the very definition of AWESOME Art/Space rocks. And it actually rocks. "Dark Side" sucks ya in and doesn't let go. So Does "Animals". "The Wall" and "Wish You Were Here" are more straightforward but are totally awesome too, but I can't get into any of their 60s Syd Barret stuff.

I can't stand Radiohead. Those pretentious douches couldn't sound worse if they tried. Ooh! I can't tune my guitar! Watch me make ambient noise because it's experimental! Who needs music when you can make noise? All of it is bullshit. Don't waste your time.

I don't agree with you 100%, but it seems to me that Radiohead play weird stuff just to be weird. A lot of it is crap in my opinion but there's people who think its so cool just because its weird.
I like weird stuff sometimes, but I don't listen to it just because it's weird.
It's gotta rock too. Take the Talking Heads (my current avatar) for example. Those guys are pretty weird, and they play some quirky music. It totally rocks in a lot of cases though.

Alright, man!! I can dig '80s new wave pop stuff or whatever the Talking Heads are because they still rock out. I love the Cars and even sometimes guys like Duran Duran or Men At Work, and the Police rocked out well. Pink Floyd is about as experimental as I'm willing to go, though, so I guess Thom Yorke is gonna have to whine at sombody else.

as for art rock/post rock/space rock, radiohead is probably one of my favourite bands ever. sigur is great as well. clinic is a great art rock band to check out, and muse and elbow are both impressive radiohead similars. another band that i would almost throw in there is the jim yoshii pile up. check it out, for real.

you guys should check out interpol if you are down with the 80's bit. pretty good joy division/velvet underground/later david bowie sound.

I don't much like interpol. They are just the same stuff that happened in the 80's. They aren't bad, but they are nothing special. I'll buy another Bowie or Duran Duran or Depeche mode album before I buy them.

sigur ros will probably have a new cd coming out in may, i can't wait for that. right now they just released a new ep so i should check that out. and yet another thing, their debut album was finally released to the u.s. before you had to order it from iceland but now you can get it off of amazon. the remixed album of von(their debut which sounds kind of cool, actually) will be released sometime late this winter or early spring i think.
