Winner: SONIC YOUTH.

Comments:
James Chwi: Sonic Youth. Is this even a real question?

Stephen Ashby: Titanium Expose beats anything radiohead has to offer. Sonic Youth.

Derek M. Ballard: That's easy. Radiohead sucks. (I'm sorry.) I feel bad for saying that.

Karen Tominey: I don't understand this comparison at all. If I had to choose between who to see live again, I'd go with Radiohead, and I've seen them both before. If I was stuck on an island, Radiohead. So Radiohead it is, although I love Sonic Youth, too.

Tracey Gaughran: This isn't a choice. It's a statement of principles. *opts out*

Samantha Dolores: God I hate Radiohead.

Gabriel Fowler: this is a fake question

Ken Mars: is this for which is more over rated because they both are

Jamie Watson: You're just fucking with us on this one right?

Dug Sohn: Now that Thurston and Kim aren't together I just feel like the whole thing was a lie. Pass.

Joe Natoli: I'll take Sonic Youth to Thom Yorke's whiny bullshit any day of the week. Although his band makes great music, his voice makes me want to kill someone. Namely him.

Scott Hedeen: i love how all you all are so into Sonic Youth now... where the F where you in 1988? listening to Faith No More?

Jess Bowers: You know my answer. But to clarify for those who don't, I sold my soul to Radiohead when I was 13.

Elizabeth Hazen: Is this a serious question?

Mitchell W Feldstein: radiohead by a wide margin....one represents most good about british rock the other the not so good about the yanks

Robert Sherwood: "She said she never heard my group, but she really dug the Sonic, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, et al. " Quigley circa 1989. BTW: For all of the crap Scot Hedeen gives me about my high school friends, I don't like Radiohead. That band sucks. Zwan is better than Radiohead.

Sean Carton: oh good grief! This is a contest? Sonic Youth!

Richard Gorelick: Radiohead but if I was on a chat show I'd lie and say Sonic Youth

Joe Kibelbek: Thurston would make his own distortion peddles. I made one from a schematic in guitar magazine.. The only sound it made was a puff of smoke. Sonic youth

Marc Raley: Instead of answering this, I'll turn on all of my appliances at once and step on the cat's tail. And cry.

Mikey Mayhem: this joke yes? sonic youth
