You'd really never listened to Radiohead or Coldplay before this debate? The Bends and Parachutes aren't bad places to start for either band, but they're not either band's best. OK Computer (Radiohead) and Viva La Vida (Coldplay) are both much better imo.
No worries at all, take your time it's not a big issue at all
Yes I truly apologize to pro. It was last minute
@pierree
I've 'heard of one Radiohead song, Creep.
Never really listened to it though.
Coldplay, 'also only ever heard of one song, Viva La Vida.
I 'have listened to that one, like it well enough.
. . .
Radiohead The Bends Album
I don't know, there's something about the soft crooning breathlessness of his voice I don't like. Maybe I just don't connect with the lyrics all 'that much.
The instruments and vocals feel as though they 'mix a bit to the point of just 'noise to me.
Some purely instrumental versions aren't 'bad, peaceful I suppose.
To me, it also seems as though Radiohead in the Bends album repeat some of their lyrics a 'lot.
Some of the guitar also sounds 'murky? To me.
Of the Bends album, I think I preferred Bones and Street Spirit (Fade Out), though some of the others instrumental versions weren't 'bad, just not 'great for 'me.
. . .
Coldplay Parachutes Album,
'Still not really my style, but I find the lyrics easier to understand, they're more separate from the music and spoken quicker, rather than long crooned out.
But, Coldplay 'still croons more than I like.
Just not my genre I guess. Yet, I like Frank Sinatra's music. And some other long drawn out human vocalizations.
Ah, Yellow, heard that one before, never cared for it all that much, don't 'hate it, just don't like it either.
We Never Change wasn't that bad.
. . .
Eh, either band though and the genre, probably fans ears can better pick out differences and qualities they like.
Hm, better at what?
I suppose if two bands had equal depth, but one had a greater range, one might say the band with greater range is better.

'Maybe shouldn't accept or offer debates, if you don't have a strong expectation, you can 'be 'there for them.
