Y HALO THAR




Posted by ad_man63

I'm Adam. I'm 19 and from Newfoundland.

Some of the things I like: Radiohead (plus many other bands), video games (Nintendo franchise being my favorite), most sports (I cheer for all the Boston teams), and 4chan (I just signed up and am seeing a lot of stuff from /b/ already :o)

I'll probably be sticking around for a while :)

Welcome to VGC, Adam. I think I like you already. (not in "that" way, though; don't get your hopes up)

You like Nintendo games; that's great. I'm assuming you're also a fan of the Red Sox, too? Yet another reason to like you.

Other than that, welcome!

This. That said, you -will- fit right in. Just please, have a personality. :P

On the subject of your liking Radiohead... are you at all a fan of Muse or Porcupine Tree? From what I gather both of those share common threads with Radiohead, and they're two of my favorite bands. :)

Not as of now, but Muse is the next band I'm going to try. allmusic.com says they sound a lot like Radiohead. I would buy/download some of their stuff, but where I live makes it quite hard to get music. I live about an hour drive from the closest record store, and the best internet connection we can get in our small town of about 150 is 28.8k dial up. :(

I'll be buying a bunch of albums this summer, what one would would you suggest?

Go for Origin of Symmetry or Absolution. Absolution's commonly cited as a masterpiece, and is generally the favorite, but you can't go wrong with OoS, either. I'd probably rank Absolution higher. The main similarity with Radiohead is in vocal style. Musically they're quite different, but it should be easy for any RH fan to enjoy Muse. :D

They have a new album coming out in... about a week now, which I'm really looking forwards to. I'm expecting to like it even more than Absolution, apparently it's a bit more experimental.
