Interchangable bands of the month/minute
« on: April 28, 2006, 11:25:00 am »
It seems that each month/minute a new Radiohead-esque band emerges from the slime...with cover art that could win the blue ribbon at any eighth grade art fair.
 
 Clap Your Belle & Say Sebastian
 Black Arctic Motorcycle Cuties
 Death Cab For Monkey
 The Interstrokes
 The Decemberhives
 
 any more..?

well BRMC, Death Cab for Cutie and Artic Monkeys have little if anything to do with Radiohead... and quite frankly the whole radioheadesque bandwagon has simmered down.
 
 a more valid argument can be made for the emo/screamo clones or the bands ripping on joy division.

For me most new shit is just that: shit.  What comes out today just seems oh so very derivative as to be almost a complete ripoff of the past.  Radiohead is an unknown quantity, but I read somewhere that their sound was rather derivative of XTC.  So, because of that they are Band-X...as in Band-X sound just like Radiohead/emo wannabees.
 
 BTW, XTC WAS orignial, at least the first two albums...until they fired Barry Andrews.  Then they went and got all Beatle-y.

Belle & Sebastian doesn't sound like Radiohead, and they are not a "flavor of the month" band as you were suggesting in your post. They formed in 1996, around the same time Radiohead was just recording OK Computer. I suggest you take your crap elsewhere.

Rob,
 
 You forgot to correct "Your right"...It should be "You're right". But I'm glad you corrected
 your other error.
