yeah, tis true that the music media/industry is one nasty incestual mess.. But you are way off base.
True, I forgot about Weezer by the time I was 17. But RAdiohead? Hello? They're about the last voice in mainstream music that isn't afraid of dabbling at the extremes and voicing a subversive message. Rolling Stone bombed KID A and I vowed never to buy another mag by them.
Sorry, I's gotst to stand by the blokes from Oxford. I think you need to unplug your indie ears and experience some music while muting the media's cries. Ok Computer is one of the greatest albums ever, and their last two aren't far behind.
