h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

so what music are you into then? hope yopu've got an interesting collection of Cds anyway.

Glad you asked, umm, well...my favorite band is Sonic Youth, I've got about 10 of their albums including a DVD of their videos. I also like Dead Can Dance, Radiohead, Eels, Kasabian, Godspeed You Black Emperor, The Waterboys, Led Zepplin, Interpol, Muse, Underworld, Chemical Brothers, Aphex twin, Prodigy, Beastie Boys, Nirvana, Soulfly, Sepultura and many many more, I own about 250 cds. I also play bass in a band and play guitar outside it sometimes. I also write my own music using a programme called Strm on my computer, I've written about 125 songs over the past 2 and a half years, it's great fun. That's about it musically, what about you?

That's scary....I have to asdmit that I don't recognise a lot of those band names, and I can't stand Radiohead. Far too depressing.

Think my favourites include the Beatles, Queen and Robbie Williams. But I've an extemely random CD collection. Admittedly I've nowhere near as many as you. But I've a few guitar/rock compilations with things like Meatloaf, Black Sabbath and that sort of thing. I have to admit to indulging in some scaringly cheesy music sometimnes, but only when I'm in the right mood. I've a few sixties compilations.

Right now I'm listening to Queen on my computer.

Cool, what Radioohead stuff have you heard? Some of it isn't deppressing at all. I like the Beatles a lot too.

Think all their albums are kicking round my house. For some randomly unexplained reason, my sister and my dad like them, so I've been subjected to all the albums. Think OK Computer is a bit more tuneful than the rest, but wouldn't chose to listen to them.

I've just bought myself a copy of the Beatles Revolver album this afternoon. Only got to track three so far, but it's good.

Okay, I take it you've heard The Bends then? Odd, OK computer is pretty much their most deppressing album.

Enjoy the album

* Baby's got the Bends.....*

Oh yeah, I've heard it. It's all depressing to me. My sister has the lyrics to the "Fitter, happier, more productiove..." one as her desktop wallpaper on her laptop. Daft.

Yeah, that and the whole album, it's my favorite Radiohead record, possibly my favorite album of all time. It's just something else. Have you heard their newer stuff, Idioteque for example?

I'm not sure. What'sd their most recent album? Think we've got 6 or 7 at home, so might have heard it.

Hail to the Thief or Kid A

Oh, we have them both. Yeah, thinkj it's Kid A that's all synthesisers and noise and stuff. Not good. Goes right through you.
