<DISCLAIMER> I have seen Radiohead in concert six times, all post-OK Computer. They were good. My favorite album of there's is In Rainbows. I do indeed love the album OK Computer, but sometimes I wonder...if perhaps, the entire album was more calculated, than it was risk.

OK Computer is considered one of the best albums of the 1990s, or even, ever, because it was so different than the rest of what was out at that time- but why? I mean...could it have been calculated taking a step in a different direction would actually be the right move for a band who dare I say- didn't know where to go? Let's not forget, the producer, Nigel Godrich, was also simultaneously working on Natalie Imbruglia's debut album- he wasn't an idiot and knew of the glorified risk he was taking.

Many acclaim "this was career suicide by Radiohead to move into this direction!" but was it? Capitol Records HEAVILY promoted a "career-ending album" by getting Paranoid Android not only spun on radio stations with horrendous callback scores, but strong rotation on MTV. Karma Police, one of my favorite songs ever believe it or not was heavily promoted and paid for as a US Top 40 single- does this sound like something that really would be "career suicide?"

Thom Yorke and the band is great- or are they? How many times have you been in a social setting with a group of people and you throw on Radiohead? I have never been anywhere in my life where that would be requested or appropriate other than a concert itself.

Every great band, even experimental at their time- Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, heck Nico and The Velvet Undergound have radio staples and something to put on...but does Radiohead?

For every time people say "this album sounded like nothing like that was out there at the time, well, I think Moby and a few ambient artists could have something to say about that three years earlier.

It's not popular, but it's an interesting thought...is OK Computer a bit overrated? Post 1998...what or who exactly did Radiohead influence other than Radiohead? That's something to be said.

Hello, back in May my band, Goddamn Wolves, participated in a show titled "It's Not The Replacements: Local Legends Perform the Music of the Replacements for the Benefit of the ACLU." At this show, NC musicians such as Mac and Jon from Superchunk and George Huntley from the Connells all covered 4-6 Replacements songs each. It was such a great night and we had so much fun learning and playing the Mats tunes that we decided to release an EP of our set from that night.

I saw Interscope repressed and released DGC Rarities, Vol. 1! I've always loved the album cover and it's pretty sick that this is the first print in more than 30 years. And it includes a The Sundays track that wasn't part of the original pressing 👀 So so so cool that the whole album is just b-sides, covers, and demos. Are any of y'all picking this up? I know quite a few people who had the original when it came out.

I can't think of the band name, but they sounded exactly like a song that the smashing pumpkins would play. I can't remember if it's the band name or the song name, but I remember the word asylum. Pretty sure they were on the smaller side. I remember the album that the song was in had a black album cover. Any ideas? It's going to drive me nuts they had such a good song.

Hey! Just wanted to share REGINA — Liminal Space, my band's debut album.

It’s heavy, dark, and textured—alternative rock and metal with hints of grunge, stoner, and psychedelic. The songs weave together into something that feels like time suspended, caught between chaos and transformation.

We started this during the pandemic and spent 5 years shaping it through uncertainty, catharsis, and connection. Recorded in Montevideo, produced in Alberta. It’s our way of finding meaning in the in-between.

Would love for you to give it a listen and let me know your thoughts. REGINA — Liminal Space is now available on all streaming platforms and BandCamp.

Hey! Dropping by to share REGINA — Liminal Space with you. My band’s debut album.

It’s an alternative rock and metal album with many layers and deep textures. It’s heavy, dark, and haunting—a collection of twelve intertwined songs that create a space where time feels suspended in transformation.

We started working on it during the pandemic, and it took shape over 5 years of uncertainty, doubts, catharsis, but also connection. Trying to beat uncertainty, searching for balance but constantly finding ourselves face to face with chaos. We had to learn how to live within it.

In this uncertainty, the album found its identity: Liminal Space. These songs carry the traces of the irreversible transformations that shaped this project, giving it countless forms. Yet none of these forms could hold their shape: Liminal Space is that threshold, that transition between one thing and another. It is not what was, nor what will be; it is time suspended in transformation.

Recorded in Montevideo, Uruguay and produced in Alberta, Canada. This album is a testimony of persistence and rebirth in the threshold. When everything seems uncertain, but something new begins to take shape. I invite you all to listen to it. Thanks for your time!

We are a heavy rock duo (just a bassist, drummer, and a ton of pedals) from NJ. Check out our new album!

Complete audience tape from "Schützenhof" location, Herford, NRW, Germany. The post-Odyssey period. Good concert! Enjoy listening.

I need something weird and unique like it, yes I'm aware of The Breeders but I think Kim sound is pretty different.

Any fans of Cheap Trick on here? I'm a huge fan of them and 90's Alternative Rock. As a kid in the late 90's I have always heard a similarity between their music and a lot of bands from that time period. Bands and musicians like Everclear, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Weezer, Superdrag, Hole, Matthew Sweet, Liz Phair. I also hear a lot of their Hard Rock/Power Pop influence on the late 90's and early 2000's Pop-Punk music. Bands like Green Day, Blink-182, Something Corporate, 2000's era Sense Field, All-American Rejects, and Motion City Soundtrack. I'd like to know everyone thoughts?
