America. Not everyone gets to see their top two favorites on the same bill. Loved it the several times I saw them open for The Beach Boys.

Agreed. Unfairly dismissed because of their early image (where have I heard that before?) even though their first 2 albums were pop masterpieces in themselves. And Foot of the Mountain may well be the finest album I've heard from the last decade, plus it gets me real emotional since it's their final album. Top band, top band.

God must’ve smiled the day Brian Wilson was born!
"ragegasm" - /rāj • ga-zəm/ : a logical mental response produced when your favorite band becomes remotely associated with the bro-country genre.
Ever want to hear some Beach Boys songs mashed up together like The Beatles' 'LOVE' album? Check out my mix!

I f*cking hate Queen. Love Elliott Smith, though
:O what's wrong with Queen?! Great lyrics, vocals, interesting arrangements and electrifying live shows - what's not to love?! That being said, I have to cut a little slack as you are an Elliott Smith fan!

OH man have you read that quote by Thom about his song Street Spirit? You'd think that he'd written the greatest, most saddest song of all time and you're a puppy if you don't "get" it.

The Misfits, T. Rex, Modest Mouse, Bright Eyes, Animal Collective, Sunset Rubdown, Broken Social Scene, and yes, Radiohead. and if you don't listen to a band because people in the band say stupid things you shouldn't listen to any band ever. Especially the Beach Boys.

gah! I am by no means a Radiohead-head but "Exit Music for a Film" is one of the most beautiful songs ever! And pretty much all of In Rainbows! Come on!
There is some music that I love and connect with so much that I can't help but learn everything I possibly can about it and the people that produced it. Radiohead is absolutely not one of those, but the music speaks for itself, imo.
And yeah a lot of their fans are drippy deebees but that can be ignored, right?

I used to really like Radiohead up until Amnesiac, which was their first record that I thought was a little boring. Didn't pay much attention to what came afterwards...
Still I have to say that when Kid A came out in 2000 it was an incredibly exciting record for its time and it probably still holds up today.
For some reason my favorite album of theirs has always been The Bends.

NRBQ
atta boy!
There are some really interesting bands listed here, great responses guys.
For me: NRBQ, Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead.
The band that I've probably spent even more time and money on than the beach boys would be.......Widespread Panic. Saw them for the first time when I was 17 in the summer of '93 and saw them another 70 or so times up to 2002 when Michael Houser died. Probably seen them 6 or 7 times since.

it feels great to see how many of you enjoy radiohead
it took me quite a while to understand their music but once i did i became extremely addicted to everything by them...let's just say their music isn't for everyone.

My top three bands (in no particular order) are The Beatles, The Searchers, and The Hollies. Being a (somewhat) recent BB/BW fanatic, I'm not sure where I would place them. Probably Top Five though

It took me a while to understand it too but once I did I had the opposite reaction and I've virtually never listened to them again.

Because there really is no substance to their music, which is fine usually but not when it masquerades as being something that does have substance. I find Radiohead to be empty, cold, emotionless, trifling, and silly and all of this is exacerbated by the fact that they take it so seriously.
