Is this one of those ironic threads where we say the opposite of what we mean?

Fair point OP, clearly nobody listens to them aside from this one board with like 50,000 (max) users
>>
>>65493666
What? Just look at how well AMSP did. That said, I've yet to find another radiohead fan in real life.
>>
>>65493666
What? Literally everyone I know has heard of Radiohead. Sure, not many listen outside of stuff like Creep but everyone knowing their name isn't "not that popular"
>>
I can't think of anyone under the age of 20 that listens to Radiohead or even listens to them. Same as Weezer and the Strokes.
>>

That's probably because you are a NEET who doesn't have any IRL friends.

What the fuck is anyone even talking about. Radiohead is so well known. Johnny Greenwood just did the soundtracks to two major motion pictures.

And it dropped like a rock right after. Drake and Beyonce are still sitting in the top 3 while AMSP is like down in the 80's. Extremely front loaded sales because of a dedicated fanbase.

Radiohead is entry level as fuck

They're on par with Arctic Monkeys to post-punk/garage rock revival that is overplayed on underage parties.

their tour sold out within like 30 seconds how are they not popular? A better example is like AnCo or something where only that band's fanbase gives a shit about them as opposed to someone like Kanye where not everyone might like him but at least they know who he is

>Not popular outside of mu

Animal collective is a thousand times more popular than 4chan

>>65496324
What does that even mean
>>
>>65496324
>more popular than 4chan

he was asking if it's popular outside of /mu/, not more popular than /mu/. most bands are more popular than /mu/, shit most PEOPLE are more popular than this board

>>65493757

Arcade Fire. I know this seems wrong, but they exist in a very strange sector of music. They chart number one albums, and are seen as one of the pillars of their genre, but are mostly neglected by entry-level indie/alternative fans, because although they make melodic accesible music, all the songs are long, dramatic/sad, and lack hook-y lines. Meanwhile, serious music fans either see them as normie-core, or respect their work, but dont really go back to it often, which stops them from gaining an animal collective-like popularity.
>>
I once heard Radiohead mentioned on The Big Bang Theory, in the context of something any normie should recognize.

They mentioned Radiohead in a Hannah Montana episode even, if that doesn't invalidate OP's post I don't know what does
>>
>>65497527
>>65497385
Radiohead is mentioned in an Avril Lavigne song too
