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.

Kid A and Amnesiac are ripped from Zooropa / Pop / Passengers. OK Computer is a pastiche of the entirety of U2's discography up to that point.

this. its like they took U2´s b sides and ran with it

Edge isn't Greenwood and you have no one in U2 that's comparable besides U2 is too accessible to be compared to Radiohead's post bends albums

Radiohead "experimentalness" is fairly digestible. its why they are popular.

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

>>129575373
I see where your coming from but Pop sounds like a dance/house inspired album

Maybe Thom was friends with Bono and they use to communicate with each other about the need to progress rock music in the mainstream

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.

If anything it's MBV

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

>>129575456
O'Brien owes his style to Edge. Greenwood's idiosyncratic style is also a ripoff, but that's another conversation.

U2 is viewed as "uncool" because they're popular and emotionally sincere, which makes them persona non grata with hipster hacks like Radiohead

The U2 song on the Batman Forever soundtrack mogs Radiohead's entire discography.

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.
