Murmur. As much as I like the Dan, Aja isn't in my top 3 of theirs.

REM


In your favor so far.

I voted On the Beach. Doesn't look good for Neil in this one, though.

Surprised at how much REM is running away with it at this point.
Although, they did get my vote, too.

OKC, I love REM and they are a clear influence on Thom Yorke, but I got to go with Radiohead

A couple weeks ago I actually bothered to burn OKC to disc for a long car ride, just to TRY once more, just to give it one more shot, just to attempt to hear whatthefuck people hear in it.

Took about 20 minutes before I threw it out the car. $500 fine for littering? I don't care, JUST GET IT OUTTA MY CAR.

You fucking Floyd fans, man. I cast a pox upon thee.

I've actually been listening to OKC a lot in my car lately. It probably would have gotten my vote anyways but at this stage its a no brainer.

I like Aja, Series of Sneaks, and Murmur, but I chose OK Computer...even though I probably haven't listened to it in about 3 or so years.

Haven't heard that Neil Young yet...
