Muse vs Radiohead? Why?

[metalheadphysicist]

Quite a sensitive topic for some but each to their own.

Muse

Radiohead

I feel bad voting for Muse because Radiohead got there first but Muse went on to be more than just a Radiohead clone, plus Radiohead's discography is a bit patchy in my opinion.

[metalheadphysicist]

Oh most definitely. Origin of symmetry has my heart always. Muse was definitely inspired by Radiohead but they took that inspiration and made something completely new.

Thanks for MHO!

I have to pick muse because I've actually heard at least one of their songs. I can't say I know any Radiohead.

I mean... Radiohead obviously! I don't own a single Muse record. Radiohead is art. Muse is... some band that had a couple of hits a few years ago. This was not a difficult choice.

(Also, let's take a step-back and look at what a terrible terrible choice for a band-name: "Muse"... think about what a muse is. Now think about what a Radiohead is. You don't even need to listen to the music to know one is cool and one is lame.)

Uh... no contest.

RADIOHEAD.

[Nikki1989]

Radiohead, but both are vastly overrated.

Radiohead, Thom is a genius.
