Radiohead - OK Computer

incredible album.

Posted by Nautilus on Mar-20-2004 09:38:

Karma Police rocks.

Truly their transitional album, from purely rock to the electronic alternative band we know and love today! Most of my friends insist that "The Bends" was their best work, but I keep telling them it was this album that put them on the legend map, so to speak. Dynamic and complex, this album undoubtedly is influenced by the EMD crazy that swept Britain in the 1990s. My fav from Radiohead.

my favorite track is probably Let Down, my favorite lyrics being on Subterranean Homesick Alien, but the whole cd is an experience and each track fits this experience.

I think Radio Head's "OK Computer" is like Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of The Moon". Each track just mind fucks you...so original, so much feeling.

granted, the bends has street spirit, but ok computer is just immense.

great album but prefer the bends

The Bends had Bulletproof, my all time favorite Radiohead song but OK Computer has No Surprises. The song instantly turned me into a fan.

my fave song is no surprises. gets me down sometimes.

Kid A is my favourite, though they didn't really miss with this one either.

Yeah, this a brilliant album... I actually bought it only after it was voted the best album ever by the readers of Q magazine. Just wanted to hear myself what was so great about this... and after that it was my most played cd for like a year and half. Apart from Electioneering I loved all the tracks, can't even pick a favourite although Let Down was the first track that sent shivers down my spine...

Anyway, all Radiohead fans should do a favour to themselves and download their Amnesty International liveset from Paris in 1998. It's a fucking amazing set... I still listen to it every now and then. Here's the tracklist for those who are interested.

Lucky
Karma Police
Exit Music
Talk Show Host
My Iron Lung
No Surprises
Fake Plastic Trees
Bones
Paranoid Android
Street Spirit

that album is amazing.

Posted by TRanCE643 on Mar-21-2004 21:18:

can never be topped - and its pretty old now too.

thom yorke sounds like he is singing his heart out on every track- like it's just sooo raw and real.

i highly recommend checking out the acoustic version of radiohead - there there.

u can check it out by launching winamp and holding ctrl + L . then paste in this address http://205.188.234.33:8042/;stream.nsv

[the acoustic version of 'there there' may not be playing right away because the stream is a rotation of radiohead music videos... but it plays about every 30 mins or so.]

definately my fave band, and their best work. Love every track especially Subteranian Homesick Alie, The Tourist. Only let down is Electioneering.

Posted by Sand Leaper on Mar-22-2004 08:18:

I'd much rather listen to Kid A simply cos it sounds different and fresh, but that's probably cos I've been hit over the head so many times with Karma Police left right and centre by all the indie ignoramuses here in Kristiansand. Fitter Happier however is probably one of the most disturbing things I've heard in my life.

truth hurts

"No surprises" just puts things into perspective for me..

This album is just massive.Radiohead was one of my infuences for EDM genre actually.

Better than Nirvana or even the beatles in my IMHO.

Posted by CarlosM on Mar-22-2004 17:09:

great album.. my fav track of it is Climbing up The Walls

Posted by hooknife on Mar-22-2004 18:36:

I think BT said it best about 4 years ago in Mixmag when he said he thought it was the best rock album since Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album.

Posted by extepan on Mar-23-2004 04:30:

No Surprises is the track to listen to!
Itis realy a era defining album!
