    Radiohead are an English rock band from Abingdon, Oxfordshire, formed in 1985. The band consists of Thom Yorke (lead vocals, guitar, piano, keyboards), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar, keyboards, other instruments), Colin Greenwood (bass), Phil Selway (drums, percussion, backing vocals) and Ed O'Brien (guitar, backing vocals).

    Radiohead released their debut single "Creep" in 1992. It became a worldwide hit after the release of the band's debut album, Pablo Honey (1993). Their popularity and critical standing rose in the United Kingdom with the release of their second album, The Bends (1995). Radiohead's third album, OK Computer (1997), propelled them to international fame; with an expansive sound and themes of modern alienation, it is often acclaimed as a landmark record of the 1990s and one of the best albums of all time.

    The group's next album Kid A (2000) marked a dramatic evolution in their style, as they incorporated influences from experimental electronic music, 20th-century classical music, krautrock, and jazz. Despite initially dividing fans and critics, Kid A was later named the best album of the decade by Rolling Stone, Pitchfork and the Times. Amnesiac, recorded during the same sessions as Kid A, was released in 2001.

    Radiohead's sixth album, Hail to the Thief (2003), mixed rock and electronic music with lyrics inspired by the War on Terror, and was the band's final album for their record label, EMI. They released their seventh album, In Rainbows (2007), as a download for which customers could set their own price, to critical and chart success. Their eighth album, The King of Limbs (2011), was an exploration of rhythms and ambient sounds, and was developed using extensive looping and sampling. Their ninth album, A Moon Shaped Pool (2016), prominently featured Jonny Greenwood's orchestral arrangements.

    Radiohead have sold more than 30 million albums worldwide.

    Their work places highly in both listener polls and critics' lists of the best music of the 1990s and 2000s. In 2005, they were ranked 73rd in Rolling Stone's list of "The Greatest Artists of All Time"; Jonny Greenwood (48th) and O'Brien were both included in Rolling Stone's list of greatest guitarists, and Yorke (66th) in their list of greatest singers. In 2009, Rolling Stone readers voted the group the second best artist of the 2000s.

     

    It has just been released their new work "A Moon Shaped Pool"!

     

     

     

    It includes several songs written some years earlier, including "True Love Waits" (which dates to at least 1995), along with strings and choral vocals.

     

    Surely Radiohead are an interesting band, one of my favourites, and not being here is outrageous. For now these songs can be enough, even if there are so many songs to post... how much I love Radiohead! :flutter: :flutter:  :flutter:

     

    See you soon!

    I'm obsessed with The Blackest Day. It's becoming one of my Lana fav songs. When I listen to Honeymoon for the first time I have never thought that one of it can become one of my fav.

    And I think it's stange for me listening to it now: One week ago my niece is born, and now I feel very happy... I think "the blackest day" isn't the better song that I can associate to this moment... I'm little bit confused.

    If you do this, do it in a way that makes sense. Leave out the interlude, you can't compare an interlude with an actual song. Compare the two covers instead of comparing each one with an original Lana song. And comparing Deluxe tracks with standard edition tracks doesn't realyl work out that well aswell.

     

    I know it makes no sense, but I wanted to do it same. :fabcat:
