OK Computer is arguably one of the best albums that Radiohead has put out. Among Radiohead fans this is quite a debate. Some think Hail To The Thief is the best album they have put out. Either way Radiohead is amazing in many ways. First, the mixture of art and music has always intrigued me. When I purchased the special edition book + cd for Amnesiac I was, well inspired to say the least. One other thing I love about OK Computer and generally all Radiohead is the fact that it is hard to understand what lead singer Thom Yorke is singing most of the time. You can listen to a song and think he is singing something, yet look up the lyrics and it’s something completely different.
As for OK Computer, I absolutely love this album. Brings back memories of driving around and skating with buddies in summer and listening to this album over and over again. It has soft tracks, like “Exit Music (For A Film)” and then the rock like “Airbag” and “Paranoid Android.” Every so often Ok Computer is the fall back listen to album at any given time. Anybody who loves music must listen to this album, and pretty much all Radiohead. For a grip of information on Radiohead, check out the Wikipedia entry.

OK Computer is obviously the best Radiohead album. There is nobody can argue that.

I would have to agree with Curtis.
OK Computer is one the best rock albums ever recorded, bar none.

I have to agree with both of the people before me. It has such a beautiful sound to it.
By far one of the greatest albums ever recorded.

[…] By now, if you read blogs or even consider yourself a person who likes Radiohead, you know that Thom Yorke has finished his solo album The Eraser. Pretty much I’ve seen a couple of the usual opinions. It sucks, or it’s okay. [read a bunch here] I’m not here with an opion. UHH, yeah actually I am because I started this blog in the first place… but I like the solo stuff. It’s very experiemental, (Did you expect something else?) and reminds me of Amnesiac. Electronic and brooding at times, and you still can’t really understand the lyrics like I said in my review of Radiohead - OK Computer. […]
