guitarded_chuck: More Influential: Pink Floyd or Radiohead?

onionbubs 06.02.16	pink floyd is probably the more influential band i guess, but radiohead is easily the better group, for me at least.
SCREAM! 06.02.16	pink Floyd, how is this even a debate?
AmericanFlagAsh 06.02.16	Obviously PF has been around longer, but I feel like so much modern music is clearly influenced by Radiohead
parksungjoon 06.02.16	putting meddle over the wall and piper over saucerful smh
parksungjoon 06.02.16	pink Floyd, how is this even a debate? [2]
SCREAM! 06.02.16	more influential led zeppelin or foo fighters?
SCREAM! 06.02.16	more influential black sabbath or opeth?
SCREAM! 06.02.16	more influential Beethoven or brokencyde?
AmericanFlagAsh 06.02.16	Radiohead is the better group [2]
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	more influential Beethoven or brokencyde? [2]
parksungjoon 06.02.16	putting meddle over the wall and piper over saucerful smh [2]
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	thought about saucerful over piper but fuck the wall tbh
parksungjoon 06.02.16	fuck you tbh
SCREAM! 06.02.16	meddle is better than the wall
SCREAM! 06.02.16	tbh*
parksungjoon 06.02.16	smh
zakalwe 06.02.16	People don't seem to comprehend the magnitude of how integral to people's lives music was. Radiohead have always been a big band who make great music and have released some of the best albums of all time. Pink Floyd were a necessity and a part of life. They're fucking part of the universe man and their influence holds no bounds.
bloc 06.02.16	Pre-70s Pink Floyd is awful tbh
parksungjoon 06.02.16	you're awful tbh
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	z knows
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	"Pre-70s Pink Floyd is awful tbh" nah, more dated perhaps, but go jam interstellar overdrive with a good set of headphones right now and tell me it isn't great
onionbubs 06.02.16	kid a>all floyd i like floyd, but ive never loved them nearly as much as everyone else. wheras radiohead is one of my all time favorite bands. but floyds more influential
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	have you listened to more than the 2 albums you rated tho
StarlessCore 06.02.16	animals>every album of all time
DinosaurJones 06.02.16	Personally, I prefer Pink Floyd, and there is also no doubt in my mind that they are/were more influential.
AlexKzillion 06.02.16	Pink Floyd, because they have been a band for like 50 years.
PlasticRadioBand 06.02.16	Pink Floyd like is this even a question Edit: sorry didnt read the list summary Flag is just being an edgy hipster to think that
AmericanFlagAsh 06.02.16	Shhhhh
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	so yeah whos laughing now
PlasticRadioBand 06.02.16	People seem to forget that a far superior version of The Wall in the form of the Is there Anybody Out There? live album exists smh. If you hate the album check that out, everything from more guitar solos, equal musical input from all members, and overall more superior musicianship
parksungjoon 06.02.16	if you hate the wall you should just quit music forever tbh
PlasticRadioBand 06.02.16	if you hate the wall you should just quit music forever tbh [2] hard. It always confused me that their reason for hating it is that Roger had way too much songeriting input and hardly any from the other band members yet Animals (everyone's fav PF album) has, technically speaking, way less songwriting creds from all the other members than on The Wall. It's just everyone joining the bandwagon
macman76 06.02.16	Influence is one of those poorly operationalized terms, like an athlete with "grit" or a team with "momentum". It means whatever you want it to, and one band could have more of it because you say so.
parksungjoon 06.02.16	the wall has many of gilmour's best solos so that alone is enough to enjoy it nevermind that it's their most experimental 70s album (but people who think experimental = random noodling and noise would never understand) nevermind that it's their darkest album nevermind that it's to this day one of the most shining examples of how to tell a compelling and complex story through a concept album (and not a "girl left me boohoo" kinda story)
Jots 06.02.16	some of Radiohead's most influential music was pretty clearly influenced by Pink Floyd (especially some later-era material of PF), so... I mean, for every "influence point" you give Radiohead, you're basically giving royalty points to PF anyway.
parksungjoon 06.02.16	^ [2]
AmericanFlagAsh 06.02.16	Ugh fine
PlasticRadioBand 06.02.16	Aside from music reading books is almost as big a love in my freetime and I love how the complexity of The Wall's story from not just lyrical motifs but musical motifs hidden in songs especially key to changing the Pink's character make me think of an especially intricate novella or play
SCREAM! 06.02.16	"nevermind that it's their most experimental 70s album (but people who think experimental = random noodling and noise would never understand) nevermind that it's their darkest album nevermind that it's to this day one of the most shining examples of how to tell a compelling and complex story through a concept album (and not a "girl left me boohoo" kinda story)" Nevermind that it's overblown and could have been trimmed down to a single lp :3
PlasticRadioBand 06.02.16	@SCREAM or you should probably check out the live album Is There Anybody Out There? because it's so much better than the album I thought that it would be common knowledge that album exists I mean I've seen a lot of people who hate The Wall say they love that much more because it fleshes out the songs with longer solos and the audience adding to the overall theatre vibe of the album's concept
parksungjoon 06.02.16	if you don't understand waters' vision and what he was trying to accomplish by it then yeah you could say that about most albums
MO 06.02.16	pink floyd hard
ShadowRemains 06.02.16	floyd ainec like seriously their 70s run might be the greatest decade for any band ever
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	was jk when i said fuck the wall its a great album but floyds creative peak as a whole ended with animals and yeah i like meddle quite a bit more, it's a brilliant record with their best song
SCREAM! 06.02.16	"@SCREAM or you should probably check out the live album Is There Anybody Out There? because it's so much better than the album" Will do. For the record, I do like The Wall, I just don't think it's worth the mounds of hype it gets.
PlasticRadioBand 06.02.16	Live at Pompeii = Psychedelic Pink Floyd at their peak. Meddle is a pretty cool inclusion even if it's placed above much better albums gj m8
LotusFlower 06.02.16	how anyone can actually try to say 'radiohead' with a straight face is beyond me
theBoneyKing 06.02.16	I mean I love both and Radiohead are better imo but in terms of straight up influence Pink Floyd are definitely more influential (though this is in many ways a product of the time in which they flourished versus when Radiohead entered the scene).
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	yeah pompeii is their peak didn't want to include a live album tho
TheGreatQ 06.02.16	pink Floyd, how is this even a debate? [3]
torts 06.02.16	both are p shit
RoundOnEndHiInMiddle 06.02.16	regardless of how you feel about either band, it's hard to argue that radiohead is more influential. just the fact that floyd has been around for 25 more years gives them a huge advantage in this regard
LotusFlower 06.02.16	and you have a lot of horrible modern prog rock bands saying theyre inspired by PF
MO 06.02.16	"like seriously their 70s run might be the greatest decade for any band ever" agreed hard, one of the best. but I'd say the best is the beatles bro. did all they did in 10 short years. that's monumental
SCREAM! 06.02.16	pretty much any rock band that does drugs (so all of them) are influenced by PF in one way or another this is objective fact
MO 06.02.16	yea no doubt. also the fact that floyd started what like a 2 decades before radiohead? it's obvious they influenced more bands in the long run
JamieTwort 06.02.16	"putting meddle over the wall" Meddle is WAY better than The Wall though. It's not even a debate, just like the question posed by this list.
parksungjoon 06.02.16	wow you're so edgy
JamieTwort 06.02.16	How is that edgy? It's a common opinion amongst Sput's regular users to prefer Meddle over The Wall. I'd even say The Wall gets too much hate from some people around here.
parksungjoon 06.02.16	" It's a common opinion amongst Sput's regular users to prefer Meddle over The Wall. " so basically it is edgy, yeah.
parksungjoon 06.02.16	sorry but these kids don't know what they're talking about when it comes to pink floyd and a few other 60s/70s rock as well
parksungjoon 06.02.16	the fact that dsotm is the most rated and discussed pf album on this site goes to show that
SCREAM! 06.02.16	k there gramps, simmer down you might pull something
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	ye its not edgy at all id say itd be about 50/50 people who would prefer one of the wall or meddle if not more people preferring meddle
parksungjoon 06.02.16	:]
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	dsotm deserves every bit of the credit its ever received
parksungjoon 06.02.16	"ye its not edgy at all id say itd be about 50/50 people who would prefer one of the wall or meddle if not more people preferring meddle" just because it's common on this site doesn't mean it's not edgy, let alone that it's corect
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	let me also say im speaking about real life human beings too the wall is entry level floyd
parksungjoon 06.02.16	"dsotm deserves every bit of the credit its ever received" true but the three following it are on the exact same level and deserve the same credit the fact that most people here only 5 dsotm and dont even listen to the others proves that they have no idea what theyre talking about when it comes to this band
adr 06.02.16	you're retarded
parksungjoon 06.02.16	thanks adr that means a lot coming from you
SCREAM! 06.02.16	Most real life humans only care about the DSOTM to The Wall run unfortunately so Meddle falls outside their grasp
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	yeah i mean obviously i mean the people that have actually heard both the wall and meddle clearly meddle isnt as popular as a whole but that doesnt mean its better
parksungjoon 06.02.16	" the wall is entry level floyd" this is so misguided i can't even
zakalwe 06.02.16	When I was a kid but old enough to be into me tunes I thought Floyd were shite. Absolute dinosaurs. That was 25 fucking years ago. I was a brat.
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	"this is so misguided i can't even" the 80% of the population whose only floyd song theyve ever heard was abitw pt 2 and or "omg i got sooooo stondededt in college and watched the waLL IT BLEW MY MIND LMAO" disagree
parksungjoon 06.02.16	"Most real life humans only care about the DSOTM to The Wall run unfortunately so Meddle falls outside their grasp" as opposed to most sputnikers and rymers who have only heard dsotm and maybe piper if they're trying to be hipsters. so two albums total
SCREAM! 06.02.16	"" the wall is entry level floyd" this is so misguided i can't even" Ask your average joe to name a Floyd song and they're likely to tell you either Another Brick or Comfortably Numb so I get where he's coming from
parksungjoon 06.02.16	"the 80% of the population whose only floyd song theyve ever heard was abitw pt 2 disagree " i can see where you're coming from but surely they don't count for this discussion if they haven't even heard one album in full?
SCREAM! 06.02.16	"as opposed to most sputnikers and rymers who have only heard dsotm and maybe piper if they're trying to be hipsters. so two albums total" right..
parksungjoon 06.02.16	"Ask your average joe to name a Floyd song and they're likely to tell you either Another Brick or Comfortably Numb so I get where he's coming from" i can see where you're coming from but surely they don't count for this discussion if they haven't even heard one album in full?
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	yeh exactly and like i said i think of the people that have actually heard their discography it would be about 50/50 whether they preferred the wall or meddle i guarantee the vast majority would rank at least dsotm and wywh above it though the walls great though
Muisc4Life26 06.02.16	Pink Floyd of course
claygurnz 06.02.16	Pink Floyd are more influential, although I probably prefer Radiohead by a little bit.
DominionMM1 06.02.16	well, the wall was the first floyd record i heard. thought it was the best thing ever until i heard dsotm, wywh, and animals.
adr 06.02.16	i'd prob take Atom Heat Mother and Ummagumma over The Wall tbh
parksungjoon 06.02.16	thanks adr that means a lot coming from you atom heart mother is super underrated though, even by the band itself
adr 06.02.16	yea keep posting the same thing bud, but it's universally known fact that anything coming from you is some of the dumbest things anyone would read on this site
parksungjoon 06.02.16	tell me how you really feel
H61 06.02.16	he's right you're a shit user
parksungjoon 06.02.16	hmm apparently you've been around as long as i have but i don't remember seeing you post before
adr 06.02.16	i'm feeling pretty tired haven't slept much today, prob gonna take a nap rn thanks for asking fuck off
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	id take the wall just over ahm or obc but its close
parksungjoon 06.02.16	you might feel better. although it depends sometimes you can feel like trash after a nap
guitarded_chuck 06.02.16	sometimes i feel like thrash after a nap ok that wasnt v funny
parksungjoon 06.02.16	even i wouldn't advise thrash when you have that kind of headache
trve 06.02.16	i vote five finger death punch
LotusFlower 06.02.16	honestly just rename the list on Pink Floyd's side to 'Sputnikmusic'
Rik VII 06.02.16	there are only like 3 bands in the history of rock and pop more influential than Pink Floyd, and Radiohead are not one of them.
AmericanFlagAsh 06.02.16	Just checking in
Rik VII 06.02.16	well hello there
SitruK6 06.02.16	Pink floyd ofc
ArsMoriendi 06.02.16	Radiohead is super influential, but Pink Floyd still manages to destroy them in that category.
CamiloG 06.02.16	Pink Floyd by a mile...
AmericanFlagAsh 06.02.16	I feel special
ArsMoriendi 06.02.16	Yes FlagAsh, very "special"
DikkoZinner 06.02.16	Floyd
FullOfSounds 06.03.16	I'd say Pink Floyd by a lot. Both bands have influenced many bands and genres, but Pink Floyd has done more to influence prog and psychedelia.
Ryus 06.03.16	pink floyd
