Phil needs more attention as a drummer, he's not the flashiest type who can rock your socks off with a superhuman solo but he knows whats best for a song and keeps a tempo like a machine
Ed has a strong presence on stage. Phil and Ed are probably the most articulate and well spoken members of Radiohead. They seem the most comfortable with being in the limelight. Although, recent interviews show Thom appearing very comfortable in his skin these days, which is nice to see.
As much as I love Johnny and Thom, it's a bit like getting two teenagers to do a presentation at school. They are not well known for being confident in front of a crowd.
@@user-iz9co4qf6z high school and college were horrific experience for me but Radiohead got me through the storm. they're also the soundtracks of me growing up.
Met Phil one evening after they played the Palladium. He was so soft spoken and kind. I thanked him for a great show and he said something to the effect of “the pleasure was all mine, thank you for coming to see us”.
Seriously two lovely acceptance speeches. Radiohead has gotten a lot of flack over the years for how they're perceived in the media and in public, but this induction and their acceptance shows just how genuine and humble they really are. The fact they've been doing this for over 30 years without a change in their lineup is a testament to their character. Would have been great to see the whole band up on stage to accept the honor, but Phil and Ed did splendidly on their own.
Phil Selway is a "drummer's drummer". Non-drummers are often impressed by obnoxious showy solos. But Phil is absolutely surgical with his rhythms. He's from the school of drummers like Jaki Leibezeit of Can, or Aidan Girt of Godspeed You Black Emperor. Drummers known for machine-like precision that is actually harder to do than a big sloppy egoic solo.
I second this. I listened to a lot of Radiohead at the beginning of this year and Phil really inspired me to be more comfortable as a pocket drummer and not feel the need to develop mind-blowing chops
I picked up a guitar for the first time around when Kid A came out. I'll admit, as a kid, Thom and Johnny took all of my attention. But over the years, especially after seeing them live, Phil and Colin are the main drivers of the sound that is Radiohead. Thom and Johnny just don't sound as good to me without them. And then Ed is like this wonderful glue that fills in everywhere where he's needed.
Absolutely true. As a drummer and a recent Radiohead fan, I love listening to Phil's work (Jigsaw being a particular favourite). He reminds me a lot of Larry Mullen in terms of how he serves the music, and not his own ego.
@@pepitofuentes7017 In whose world is Oasis better than Radiohead. How the fuck can you compare Oasis to Radiohead... Makes me wanna fade away from earth smh... The only band that I'd compare Radiohead to is Pink Floyd.
It's impossible to summarize in a few words how much Radiohead has contributed to the music industry and the people that listen to them. They're beyond extraordinary, and their legend keeps growing up by each day that passes.
These people are scientists of music. And they take it very seriously, as should. I don't know anyone like them today. After them it's all dead. They are the last ones.
Simply the best band of them all...!!!! No if's, ands or buts. Thanks Radiohead for All your beautiful music you have given us, that has moved, touched and most of all soothed us all!!!
The individuals in this band have created something much larger then the whole. I will always attribute this band with saving my life. They pulled me out of the darkness with golden ropes of sound and reset my chakra 💚
When Ed shared the importance of their love for one another, you could perhaps see a glimmer in David's eye that this is something missing from his career. Maybe he felt the love with Brian Eno, but certainly not so much with Talking Heads.
Such a shame to be honest. But aside from that, just imagine the way Ed and Phillip felt when they were introduced by one of the members of the very band that they took their name from, amazing.
Thank God Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine is on the board of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame now, all the bands that actually deserve to be in there are getting in.
I didn’t know that but def couldn’t agree more. Hasn’t RATM been nominated? Seems unlikely they’ll get in with only a few albums…but Morello is particularly influential
@@sleedeal8010 Morello showed that you don’t need to shred to be a great guitarist, he was amazing at creating new sounds and effects with his playing (same as EOB)
Radiohead are huge snubs! Love Nirvana but I would argue that Radiohead is even bigger! They are still relevant today and they STILL have the SAME original lineup! They are one of the most important rock bands in history!
They did it the right way. Perhaps they didn't want to 100% endorse it but neither did they want to deal with the controversy of a 'snub'. Very English response you might say
I watched the Grammys this year (2023) and most of the music was missing the integrity, exploration, inventiveness, intelligence, depth and brilliance of this band.
The tide will come in again. Currently we're in the middle of the culmination of the social media era. Filters on photos, autotune, capitalism at its nadir. When the house of cards collapses and the epidemic of mental health issues kicks in. When the economies contract after Covid/Ukraine etc. When young people get sick of the boomer generation pulling up the ladder. When people tire of the Kardashians facade and the rich ignoring climate change. When the woke backlash fades and people just see the sadness and anger that propells it. Then, the tide will come in and it will be a wave of art not seen since the 60s with undeniable meaning at its core. It's going to be awesome.
It’s not often I say this but I’m blown away by this band. They are so talented and I never get bored of there sound. Lucky enough to see them live and somehow they are even better live. Great great great band
They're lovely guys, and I'm glad they acknowledge the induction as a big fucking deal! I was rooting hard for them to get in, so it's nice to see them also happy about it.
I remember listening to John being interviewed on Pete Holmes podcast, and the impression I got from a few of his comments on music, made him out to be somewhat of a Radiohead fan.
"A big fucking deal." No doubt. Their humility and love for each other make them what they are; it's not JUST the music. There are plenty of bands who create amazing tunes, but sans that quantifiable authenticity, those bands simply don't compare. And to those putting Oasis in the same league........POPPYCOCK.
As much as I Love radiohead I love even more that ed and phil get to be the only ones there and have their moment. Always overshadowed by thom and jonny and yet here they Are, =) Enjoy it boys.
It's adorable how nervous they both are lol. One of the greatest bands in history, a level of credibility that would entitle them to never get stage fright again, but at the end of the day, human beings. I'm glad it was Ed and Phil who were there to accept the award, since they are the most by humble and kind out of the five of them. Probably the only two you could invite and expect them to accept the award with grace rather than to somehow find a way to be put out by it and/or put down everyone in the room lol.
Phil Selway, what a drummer. Radiohead are my all-time favourite band, tbh they're a lot more than that for me. They're a representation of a desperate generation, desperate to exist harmoniously with all around, environment, each other, flora and fauna... Pointing out that more often than not, we're more human than human, to pinch a phrase. It's a messed up world, the clock feels like it's running down. Then Radiohead release another album, harmony is restored, or a empathy relating with us all, one consciousness crying out for humility and change.
I would also put Is This It by The Strokes and Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not by Arctic Monkeys. Those two albums were a revolution in their own aspects, maybe the first one wasn't a "Masterpiece", but the influence that had on a new wave of bands (Arctic Monkeys included) is undeniable. But in the case of Arctic Monkeys, I would definitely put it in the Masterpiece territory, and being a debut album just makes it more outstanding, just my opinion...
@@Nerokennedy99 As well as some outkast albums, kanye west, kendrick lamar, great hip hop albums and some arcade fire I think it was the last 20 years but less than ok computer
@@brianrocks2087 My favourite band is Muse, but putting one album on the Masterpiece territory would be too much, even when talking about Origin of Symmetry and Absolution, extraordinary albums but wouldn't be categorized as a Masterpiece. The one I missed on my previous comment is Songs for the Dead by Queens of the Stone Age, a Masterpiece in my opinion, maybe not too influential, but damn is so good.
@@stephendoran2690 I think that they can't be compared, because their focus was a lot diferent than Radiohead's. It's like comparing a drama movie vs a horror film, they could be outstanding, but really can't be compared, even when both are movies.
Originally, when they just heard about the possibility of being inducted, Thom expressed the lack of interest in this kind of "society" events, it was even rumored that the only attendant would be Colin.

Hugely deserved. By the way, I can't think of many bands that never changed their lineup in almost 35 years.
Not many, it's true! a-ha, 39 years... U2, 45 years... ZZ Top, 51 years

Well deserved of course. This band is one of the all time greats and probably one of the most influential bands of the last 25 years.
