He did make valid points, Im sick of both sides in this argument personally. One side is calling the entire other side small minded or stupid, while a few on the other side persist on proving them right (with those idiotic reviews). Although i stand by everything i said against radioheads inclusion, i have decided that they do have a place on this website.
Recommended for Radiohead haters, dont listen to individual songs you'll hear them out of context. You need to listen to the entire album, preferably more than once because its hard to judge after just one listen.

If you're waiting for the poll to plead for your return, I suspect that it may not be as forthcoming...maybe we'll throw you the same kind of party once you've earned as many well-wishers as Cert did. 
|
Not as negative a response as i was looking for, but ill use it anyhow.
I have nothing personal against Cert, nor do I agree with the reviewers who obviously never heard the albums they were reviewing or were just bitter about the inclusion of a band they didnt think belonged. But announcing your departure because you dont think some other kids are playing fair. What he did is the equivalent of having a temper tantrum and running up to your room to cry and just be angry in general.
Cert was a very interesting member but I refuse to lament his loss unless he manages to raise himself above the level of the bogus reviewers.
P.S. last post was sarcasm meant to spark a negative reaction.

Cert - I can only quote Daevid Allen at this point:
It's all much too serious to take seriously.
Come back and give those blinkered, narrrow minded peasants the sound spanking they so richly deserve!

amazing opinions on your work! 
Seriously, we can't afford to lose a good guy like you. New

I think a lot of people don't think Cert is prog enough for the site, and are unfortunately using reviews of Cert to express that feeling. So Radiohead got mad and announced that they were leaving, which upset a lot of people who would miss them when they were gone.
No, wait, I'm mixed up. What were we talking about again?

Read the thread "PATHETIC" for an explanation; Cert is angry about the fact that some people have started a zero-star protest against Radiohead, including at least one Prog Reviewer.

I don't know Cert very well, and I respect the stand he's trying to make, but I imagine he'd be missed. So I vote for him to come back.
