I doubt it will have any sort of OKC type of resonance, I don't think that's even realistic at this point in the game.?
.
well it's certainly not a bad benchmark to strive towards
I think the similarities probably begin and end with the melting pot of influences and the infusion of classic elements with modern, cutting edge sounds

well theres a difference with CD and OKC, OKC was thier breakthrough album, CD wont be for GN'R. they already had a breakthrough with AFD.

You're right to a degree, some would say "The Bends" was their breakthrough and OK Computer was the solidification or confirmation of them becoming a major force

Absolutely, the standard should be set high.
It's just that GNR have never been exactly "cutting edge", ?never groundbreaking by any stretch of the imagination.

Ugh, something awesome like Guns N' Roses compared with arguably the most overated, dullest and generally pretentious band in music history.
Radiohead is great music for when you have a boner, and you need it to go down.

Without disrespect tom yorke, I think Axl is an another dimension artist and knows better than yorke how to make a great record. I don't remember "ok computer" supposed success in 1997. In 1997, I spent my time in nighclubs dancing on house music, stardust, modjo, armand van halden, bob sinclar to name a few, that was all over the place in Paris and Cannes!
I used to like the backstreets boys also, and I'm not ashamed to say it.

Radiohead isn't just Yorke and some guys playing their instruments. 1 through 5 they are one of the most solid bands around.
Nesquick, just because you were too busy dropping E and dancing in foam and bubbles and all that shit to realize that OKC was big means it didn't happen? That's like Bush revisionist history.
