    The start of their Glastonbury set is a tough listen. It has to improve.

    I'd love to be turned on them tonight but I can't see it. As a fan of almost every genre of music I just don't get them at all.

    Their music is depressing.

    Awful depressing music, had a mate who liked them at uni and it was honestly painful to listen to

    Love Radiohead - sensational stuff from Glastonbury at the moment. A proper original band with real musicians who know their art.

    If you don't like it, fair enough - I know all the songs. We're all different & there's a fair chance I'd hate your stuff, but I don't feel the need to start a thread to slag it off. If you don't like it you should try locating the off button - it's normally red.

    I can safely say, for any neutral, this is not sensational stuff. By any stretch.

    I agree with your sentiment music is subjective though and if you hate it that much switch over. Conversely if I loved them that much I wouldn't be on here during their headline Glastonbury set trying to stick up for them.

    Jonny Greenwood is peerless. His level of musicianship is bordering on godlike and he also doesn't seem to age!

    Don't understand why all these rock bad feel the need to put out techno *, canny class yourself as a rock band if there's no one * playing a guitar

    Good yin :50: I'm not speaking as a neutral.

    This is what I'm into & it's easy to slag some band off if you you don't say what you like.

    What are you watching it for?

    I'm a music lover that's fallen in love with bands I had zero interest in within festival settings such as Arcade Fire, Sigur Ros and Muse. That's why I'm watching.

    I'm speaking as a neutral, the crowd aren't into it and whilst I appreciate the musical talent it sounds like a cat being strangled.

    That's why folk find them pretentious, it's as if their fans can hear something beyond the music. On face value it's depressing, downbeat and doesn't sound good.

    * love them.. if that's a contradiction in terms..

    Life isn't all sunshine and happiness... they capture the futility and apathy of man.

    They're the most important band of our generation.

    Would rather they played Fake Plastic Trees or Karma Police but it's no on the set list, hopefully on the encore

    I haven't heard some of the more new songs. But they sound pretty good to me. Think York looks stoned off his coconuts.

    He looks like Fran Healy has found crystal meth.
