This British buzz band’s single ”Creep” is the ultimate neurotic teen anthem. It mates Smiths-type self-consciousness (”I don’t belong here”) with dramatic U2-like vocals and guitar, with Cure-style heavy but crunchy pop.
A promising collection that blends U2's anthemic rock with long, atmospheric instrumental passages and an enthralling triple-guitar attack that is alternately gentle and bracingly noisy.
More by accident, perhaps, than design, Oxford's Radiohead have forged a link between today's grunge sound and that unjustly neglected West Coast classic, Spirit's The Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus.
Pablo Honey is most often defined by what it’s not. But every band has to start somewhere, and there’s nothing particularly embarrassing on Pablo Honey, despite the way that Radiohead have almost completely erased its existence.
Certainly nothing else on Pablo Honey hinted at things to come.
this is not that bad
but comparing with other
radiohead recs
it is kinda tame
every song kinda sounds same
still a good listen

I feel like it’s kinda a norm to dislike Pablo honey, but it’s not even that bad. It’s just good 90’s Britpop, very simple but still fun and a nice listen. Thom’s vocals are good, Johnny is very subdued i feel which kinda sucks but it’s not bad. It doesn’t feel like Radiohead much, but I don’t give a shit. It’s a ok record.
