A change of location needed?

^ OK Computer (and Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief) are Crossover Prog. Please read the current Crossover Prog definition (http://www.progarchives.com/subgenre.asp?style=3) - everything there can be applied to Radiohead.

Thanks Dean, for answering the question I was asking.

I don't think that fits Radiohead's music at all Because if that what you say is right, then what's Britpop, Alternative Rock?? let me remember during the 90's that's how they were seen, and that's how they should remain, just don't pretend Radiohead are something that they are not, because if Radiohead are Prog, Coldplay and Oasis are Prog too and everything will be fine...

Be carefully before taking things like an extremist; you can't compare Oasis or Coldplay music to Radiohead stuff at least after OKputer. You say they're kinda pretentious; how so? They undenaiably have true prog influences, and that's the main difference with the rest of the alternative bands.

Do call britpop to Pablo Honey or The Bends, but somewhere in this site I read once: One album from a band is enough to call 'em prog, and just Kid A is deserver to place Radiohead in PA, dunno if in prog related or in crossover, but they're here anyway.

Well yeah, I had to exaggerate like that to make to see one point...

Why do you guys still pretend Radiohead to be the ultimate Prog band??

When we know that's something that's simply not true, and some of you still say that Radiohead are "100% progressive" just like as this new "crossover" states, give me a break.

The band "environment" and the "area" on people they have are evidently out of any Prog circle approach, the "scene" where their belong has nothing to do with Prog, you just are making them look like a real Prog band when they are factually not, that's what I say, not only because if you guys like them, you guys have to make them look Prog.

The only controversial thing you posted that I (and others) doubted is that weird comparison you did BUT...... Who did pretend Radiohead to be the ultimate prog band?????????? Again with the exaggerations

Well, yes I did that to make it sound more direct, and also because maybe some people could really think like that, and that would be very bad.

well, no, if you mean by "modern", bands that don't have too much to say about their Prog Rock roots, and instead have all the alternative, depressive, annoying, noisy, even punky rooted stuff, well probably they're simply not Prog Rock then.

I must admit, they could be the ultimate alternative rock band of the 90's, not Prog, hahah.
