This is sort of a strange introduction to the band as this is jumping into their most experimental era, but it's still a really great song. You'll likely get a lot of recs for stuff off OK Computer, Kid A, and maybe In Rainbows and A Moon Shaped Pool, but I actually think a really good starting place is the Hail to the Thief album. It's basically a blend of their more guitar-driven 90s sound with the electronic experimentalism they delved into at the turn of the century, so offers a look at the various sides of the band in what I suspect might be an appetite-whetting way.

As someone who was there when Radiohead started, but didn't get into them until later, I find it hard to justify starting out anywhere but _Pablo Honey._ They picked up where Pink Floyd left off and their catalog isn't just a collection of albums, but the evolution of a sonic lifeform and to pick up in it's young adulthood where it gets more complex is to miss out on the journey it took to get there. Sure, we can recommend _DSOTM_ as a start for its accessibility, but Floyd really needs to be listened to from it's early days--If not _Piper,_ then at least _Saucerful of Secrets_ to see the embryonic become a born creature.

Tool and Radiohead are the real legacy of early 90's music. They are the most creative and challenging to listen to; they make great albums, not just great singles, a rarity in the current musical climate. Thom Yorke, MJK, Mike Patton, and Chris Cornell are hands down the best male vocalists from the era. Pyramid Song songs almost like a Bond film opening number.

@@anthonypallen7919 Perhaps as an artist, Patton may be overrated (and I'm not sure I agree with you on that), but the fact that the guy holds the world record for male vocalists in terms of range is rather remarkable. You should see the stuff that Patton does outside of his bands. Trent is one of the eras great producers, and The Fragile is one of my top ten album all time, but he's not the singer on par with an MJK or Thom Yorke. It's like comparing Tu Pac and Dr. Dre; both are GOATs, but Dre will always be known more for his producing while Pac's legacy is his poetry.

I don't know why but both Tool and Radiohead resonates very deeply with me. Radiohead has a very wide range from from very grungy rock with Creep, over this eeryness you just experienced and onto broken electro beats with Idioteque. Personal recommendations though have to be "Exit Music (for a film)" That track brings tears to my eyes every time. If you's like to hear them go bonkers, "A National Anthem" is a must. That track has some of the craziest brass arrangement put into "pop" music

Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead is a legit orchestral composer. This song is amazing in that they took a 'Doors'-style base - I get "The End" vibes - added the string arrangement, and then finished it with the experimental touches such as the relatively unique time signature. Several simple parts, but as a whole it creates a beautiful song. You'll notice this is a trademark of Radiohead...they aren't necessarily coming up with entirely new ideas, but they have a way of molding different ideas together to create songs that popular as well as underground music lovers can enjoy.

I'm digging that your first listen was this track as it is one of my favorites and has been since it's release. The track is evocative of it's title even without any clear reference to that ancient culture within it's lyrics. The melody is pure bliss from time immemorial. The piano accompaninent has an off-kilter quality to it at first but as the other instruments are layered into the song it's beat suddenly becomes so gratifying. For me, the climax comes with the introduction of full strings. If you want something...similar, check out Like Spinning Plates from the I Might Be Wrong Live Recordings release peeanna lover.

When You Were Young and Smile Like You Mean it still make me melancholy because they were the first 2 Killers songs he shared with me to get me liking the band too; I love both songs but Smile Like You Mean It really mirrors so many aspects of my son's life so it gets me emotional, especially the official music video.

Radiohead is right up there with the Beatles to me. They can do no wrong.

I think they are to the early 21st century what the Beatles were to the middle-late 20th century. They both capture and express something essential to their respective times. The Beatles music was full of hope, love and absurdity. Radiohead is full of a sense of awe inspiring loss.

I am a lifelong Beatle maniac and only recently had to force myself to listen harder to radiohead because I wasn’t getting what everyone else was saying about how amazing they are. They are now right up there with the Beatles for me. I felt I’d wasted 25 years of my life not being a fan of Radiohead. They are amazing.

This reaction alone got you a new subscriber, anyone who digs this song, this much on their first listen, deserves it!!! Radiohead is an absolute trip and I suggest backing up and starting with their album Pablo Honey, half of the fun with Radiohead, is the insane evolution over their discography, which you can hear in every album. A few tracks to keep an eye out for based on your love of this song, Street Spirit off of The Bends, No Surprises off of OK Computer and Motion Picture Soundtrack off of Kid A! You can also read about the inspirations for their albums and songs, Thom Yorke and the other members have discussed and written about it. Apologies for the long post, but I have to take a second and highly encourage you to check out some Massive Attack and Portishead, the genre is trip hop, a blend of jazz, r&b, hip hop, lounge, acid jazz and psychedelic rock, combined to create the most chill, laid back and groovy, funky music ever. Massive Attack, try starting with tracks Dissolved Girl, Group Four and Black Milk, off of their Mezzanine Album; and for Portishead, try Roads, Glory Box, Sour Times and Only You, from their Live in Roseland NYC Concert, one of the best live performances you'll see, with full philharmonic accompanying them. Also their studio tracks for Humming and Western eyes, are amazing tracks.

I bought the Bends a year or so after its 1995 release. Still one of my favourites, but Tool are my paramount.

Iconic Radiohead… Creep, Karma Police, Fade Out ( street Spirit). All of OK Computer. Thom York the singer is haunting and weird and perfect.

I absolutely LOVE how you realize that the piano part in the beginning is actually offbeat when the rest of the instruments and drums come in. Even if you don't consciously realize it or are aware of it, it radically changes the feel of the song. It's not just the song being fleshed out; there's some kind of tectonic shift that's difficult to put your finger on. I think this may be one of, if not my favorite Radiohead songs.

I love Radiohead. Tool has been my favorite band since before Ænima came out, but Radiohead is another of my favorites. Radiohead is the only concert that hit me equally as hard as a tool concert even though it was a completely different experience. They are fucking amazing live.

I saw many, many concerts in the 1990's. I was lucky enough to see Radiohead 6 times. Each time a new experience, as the band matured and morphed their sound. They are amazing, keep exploring. I will say OK Computer is a full experience, don't just pick tracks - the entire album flows. Kid - A is much the same. So just turn it on and kick back, and soak it in.

I've listened to thousands of albums I love and admire... many can be pretty unknown or underrated... but in all honesty Radiohead have made the best hit-rate of albums over any other band for me. Amazing such a well-known band went so far off the rails in their music experiments. In that sense they're a little like the Beatles. The weirdness or challenging aspect of their music pays off big-time in the long term. They're the gift that keeps giving once you "click". Of the 20 or so big bands from my youth... this is probably the only one I still listen to on the regular and it still sounds so fresh.

Absolute chills. I agree with those who say you GOTTA submerge yourself in their entire albums. It's almost directly linear, it seems like. Some radiohead faves of mine (besides this entire album )are "2+2=5" , "Everything in its right place" , "National Anthem" and "Morning Bells"..

Hey mate, I know you like songs that have a cinematic quality, Radiohead actually wrote a Bond song called Spectre which is pretty amazing. The song was not selected for the film, but it is exceptional in my opinion, might be worth a spin? 🙂
