from an artistic point of view radiohead is definitely better. despite their commercial success they have musical ambitions (they have really developed from the alternative rock-background they came from), they are pretty innovative and a source of inspiration for many other bands (although maybe "kid a" was not as revolutionary as some people think, consider late talk talk or bark psychosis). also they have great lyrics and the melodies thom yorke comes up with can hardly be beaten. probably they are also better musicians, technically.
personally i like radiohead's more melancholic style and have always found coldplay kind of boring. coldplay have a slight "indie" attitude but fail to make really serious and deep music.

I agree. This is not a comparison worth arguing about because there is nothing really to compare.
What I was saying is that from the stereotypical standpoint of what is considered to be a footnote is whiny vocals. I find that Chris Martin whines on a lot of Coldplay songs. I know what emo is. I'm a fan of Husker Du, Fugazi, Jimmy Eat World, Cap'n Jazz, American Football, Weezer, some Dashboard, and Death Cab. Not to mention that I used to work at an alternative radio station
A lot of people don't know it, but Kid A and Amnesiac is/are one album. They just couldn't fit (or didn't) feel they all fit together.
Also, the last song on Kid A, "Motion Picture Soundtrack" was recorded during the OK Computer sessions. They also didn't feel that that track fit on OK Computer. What a dope song.
Anyway, it looks like good news from the Radiohead camp:
NEW ALBUM
While no new Radiohead album is in sight, the band has been road testing new songs during their 2006 tour in Europe and North America. Since completing 2003's Hail to the Thief, Radiohead fulfilled their contract with EMI Records and where under no obligation to release another album.
Various members of the band have stated that there will be a new album, though just when it will be out is unknown. Ed O'Brien told Green Plastic that the band plans on doing some sessions with Nigel Godrich after the tour is over.
If we had to guess when the album will come out, it would be Summer/Fall 2007. Don't hold us to that.
SOURCE
Hope that shit is dope. Everything else that comes out nowadays is LAME. I just don't buy shit anymore.
Your'e not gonna like it. I like Amnesiac and I don't really like his solo joint. There are some nice tracks on there i.e. "Black Swan," and "the Eraser." The latter of which Kanye West just took the whole beat/song/chorus and rapped over it on his latest mixtape.
Then again, I hated everything else since Kid A when those came out and now I love them so....
But you said you hated Amnesiac, so I'll bet you hate his solo.
:2 cents:
You want to hear snippets of TY's solo? Here:

yes, i know.
I agree, I would take sonic youth over both any day:2 cents:. But I just like really trippy music
I agree but between the 2 - RadioHead.. :thumbsup:
Coldplay is a talented band, but just another Brit-rock band following in the footsteps of U2 (Irish I know), Oasis and Blur...
It had to come down to it- The Velvet Underground takes it all...
hmm, that's like asking is it more fun to watch paint dry or grass grow.
They're both about as boring as lukewarm bath water.

Oh Lou Reed and The Velvet Underground easily win
I really don't see any big difference between the two bands, but I hate them both
