  1. it says on wikipedia he first had an electric when he was 16 and a half.. a far cry from all those youtube videos you see of those kids who started playing at like 8 and can shred at like 12 years hahaha
  2. 1. Popularity does not equal quality. 2. The songs she writes are pop {censored}. Really awful stuff. 3. Hopefully, time will tell her to give up. 2. really isn't relevant. look at the stuff the beatles were putting out when they were her age--- hell taylor swifts songs actually are more complex structure wise than say stuff like "love me do" which could be interpreted as pop {censored} as well but then again only Time will tell. imagine if somehow in 6 years she got really good at guitar and made a black metal album
  3. Well that's arbitrary as all hell. What about electronica bands? well why wouldnt they be allowed in that as well?
  4. Kid A is both of those things, experimental + good songs with amazing melodies. Sorry if there aren't enough distorted guitars or whatever. i dont really think so... if the bends were recorded just fully acoustic it would be still fine.--- thats kinda like the litmus test of a good album you have to be able to strip down the sound with just the melody/chords and have it be golden kid a on the other hand relies too much on you know experirmental {censored}. sure idiotesque/optimistic are pretty good.... but the other parts meh
  5. The Bends is their best as far as being consistently good all the way through, and a great listen as an album start-to-finish. OK Computer is close, and it had several amazing songs -- in fact, its best songs might be better than the best songs from The Bends -- but "Fitter, Happier" and "Electioneering" both suck so badly I can't stand listening to them: so it can't be better than The Bends, which I don't have to fast-forward through at any point. Pablo Honey is in third place: inconsistent, but overall a very good album. About a third of Kid A and Amnesiac each is good. The rest of those albums blows. And with Hail to the Thief and In Rainbows and since, they've been pretty much dead to me. Apparently they took the {censored}ty parts of Kid A and Amnesiac and decided to evolve in that direction, perhaps owing to the same "waaaah, it sucks writing music that is popular" attitude that was apparent in that execrable Meeting People Is Easy movie.
  6. i hate how people give brownie points to bands for just being "experimental" instead of writing good songs with amazing melodies
  7. Song for song, it has better tunes than everything else they came up with. i feel ok computer---ok--- in rainbows meh--- kid A- meh but The bends is amazing
