How come they never admitted to being influenced by U2 even though it's one of the most blatant style jackings in music history?

This is U2 doing Street Spirit, Talk Show Host, all the worthwhile bits of early Radiohead ten times better whilst Thom and co. were still dribbling out dookie like Pablo Honey. The only reason Radiohead isn't doing Creep on the nostalgia festival circuit next to Weezer right now is because they started copying U2 with the Bends.

Remember, Kids. if you want to truly annoy Radiohead fans, dont tell them they are depressive.
Just tell em that they sound like U2.

I have contacts in British intelligence circles and it's essentially an open secret that Radiohead were recieving massive backing from the government to be the "U2 killer." We're talking mountains of payola and star studded ghostwriting sessions (Sir Paul was there). The whole reason was politicians were shitting themselves scared over rumors that U2 were diverting tour profits to the provisional IRA.

the Passengers album is more experimental than anything Radiohead ever did lol

O'Brien owes his style to Edge. Greenwood's idiosyncratic style is also a ripoff, but that's another conversation.

It’s always beautiful day for a U2 thread every day!

This would work wonders considering they probably get little hard ons when someone says they’re depressive.
