Just a primitive and thoughtless debate indicated by the title.
Looking at the top ranked bands on BEA, I realised that Arcade Fire and Radiohead are sadly the only two bands from the top 20 who (arguably) have released relevant music since the new millenium. And as I'm sitting here listening to The Suburbs, I've just realised how much more I enjoy Arcade Fire than Radiohead. So the simple question is: who do you prefer?

Arcade Fire get my vote as well, as much as it goes against the grain on BEA, I don't particularly like Radiohead.
I seen Arcade Fire live at Edinburgh Castle last year, they were fantastic! _________________ ____________________________

Most bands are more enjoyable than Radiohead, and Arcade Fire are pretty good so...easy choice.

Neither have released relevant music at all.

Easy pick for me: Radiohead.
I liked Arcade Fire a lot when I first started listening to them, but they kind of annoy me now. I hate his vocal delivery. And Radiohead has done nothing but grow on me from day 1.

Oh god, I just realised that my statement is completely wrong according to you. Bruce Springsteen is ranked at #18, and you have a 2002 album by him as your second favorite album of all time! I guess my statement both corresponded to my own opinion as well as the site's general. It's not like the newest releases Springsteen, Dylan, Oasis, R.E.M. and U2 ranks anywhere near their material from the past millenium.

I have a question:
What exactly is "irrelevant" music?
