Many die-hardBendsandOK Computerfans have been patiently waiting for Radiohead to get their fascination with computer blips and loops out of their system. In the early '90s, U2 (whom many have said Radiohead replaced for 'best band in the ...more

Hail To The Thiefthrows Radiohead’s last two albums into violent perspective; they weren’t, as some have suggested, pissing around for the sake of it. They weren’t leaving behind their previous career; they weren’t heading ...more

When I first heard 'There There', the preview single, I was very underwhelmed. Repeated listening made me love it though. I adore it now. I've kind of been on an intensive listening trip to this album since ( at the time of writing ) it was released ...more
