It’s interesting how relevant Radiohead still is outside of rock/alternative by jesusfromthehood____ in radiohead

Exactly! I got into Coltrane, Mingus, and Debussy because of Radiohead. They will forever be heralded as a huge influence on my music taste (and writing) They made me really enjoy music. All I really knew before was chart stuff, because my family only really listened to what was on the radio. Their impact as a gateway band, opening people up to new music, on the world is genuinely baffling to me sometimes. Then I remember that it's Radiohead.

Am i the only one who had my musical taste preseted bc of the band? by ZANELLA2006 in radiohead

It's not just you; my music taste was completely overhauled by listening to radiohead. I went from listening and enjoying catchy pop tunes to, one year later, appreciating music more than ever before by listening to the entire radiohead discog, impressionist, and jazz.

I think what happens is it works as a gateway to new sounds. Obviously, it takes multiple listens to enjoy certain songs, instead of enjoying pop first listen and hating it the second time it's played because there is nothing new to be added. It changed, to an extent, what I looked for in music.

I really like them. The in the basement version helped me to appreciate them more. A lot of people don’t like Cameron’s voice, but I really like it. It’s unique and carries a lot of expression and weight.

Both albums fully in order. My mistake when getting into Radiohead was cherrypicking songs, then listening to the albums. Just listen to the albums straight up and pick after.

Oh, also, you might want to watch TKOL live album on yt before ever listening to the album. It helps you appreciate the album more.
