Travis discuss being compared to Radiohead
In an interview with MSN, Travis are asked about being compared to Radiohead:

It seems like ever since Radiohead has gotten huge, British bands can’t escape the comparisons to them. Does this bother you?
Fran: Listen, man, I’m telling you now, in fifty years time it won’t matter. People just compare you with what’s out there. I mean it’s really flattering to be compared to an amazing band like Radiohead.
