Radiohead

• SamRobertsND +1 — I do not care for Radiohead. It insists upon itself, Lois. It insists upon itself. But this really fits the theme.
• Brad Stalcup +1 — Yep.
• fionmul 0 — Good one -- I wish someone had submitted Teenage Dirtbag haha, but maybe this is better than that would have been (too redemptive of an ending)
• Claire 0 — A generational track and definitely partakes of bindlecore but not as much as other submissions
• judd.baker 0 — Loser and bindle have overlap, but I don’t think they are interchangeable
• Edward James -1 — Nah
• Regina Scime -1 — I think this one had the weakest correlation in my mind.

Joseph Harvey: The last week of senior year, your high school sweetheart broke up with you. Heartbroken, you set out with your best friend from your childhood home in the suburbs of LA on a summer-long roadtrip to nowhere in particular in the family wagon. As the dying sun sets the canyon walls ablaze and you settle in for a long night on the road, this song comes on on the radio.

• judd.baker +1
• fionmul +1 — Compelling story here but Radiohead just isn’t a thing for my fam until more recently.
• Claire +1 — Is it really a road trip if you don’t sink into a melancholy reverie at some point?
• shea nowicki +1 — This is everything hahaha
• Sam Ary +1
• SamRobertsND 0 — Nice story, not a fan of the band.
• Edward James 0 — This was actually good, which I was sad to learn. Never been a big Radiohead guy, but props to Thom Yorke and whatnot
• Corey -1 — This may just be me, but when I hear Radiohead, I think more of a cold urban hallway than a road trip.

Joseph Harvey: Beautiful aching ennui

• Sam Ary +1
• fionmul 0 — a wee bit boring innit
• judd.baker 0 — Joseph’s submission for this category is also the exact intersection point of our music tastes
• Claire 0 — Beautiful song. If I had a fourth vote I’d give it to this one
• Edward James 0 — Don’t like Radiohead, simple as
• SamRobertsND 0 — The Catholic communists at Hillsdale told me to like Radiohead but idk it never worked

• Sam Ary +1
• Brad Stalcup +1
• fionmul 0 — Nice one Joey. This was a borderline boring to me but Judd would probably like it. It got bumped in the end.
• Claire 0 — I do feel like he’d like this. I also feel like he most likely already knows this song?
• Edward James 0 — Hate Radiohead, simple as. Sorry y’all. I know this is for Judd but I hope he doesn’t like it.
• judd.baker 0 — This was a great shout from Joseph, who knows exactly which Radiohead records I have and haven’t heard. It was narrowly beaten by other songs that I liked more through the whole runtime, but I do love Radiohead instrumentation and the breakdown around 3:57 is fantastic.
• Corey -1 — Unfortunately someone had to take the hit, and that someone is Radiohead.
