Download or read book Radiohead's OK Computer written by Dai Griffiths and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-08-11 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seemingly granted 'classic album' status within days of its release in 1997, OK Computer transformed Radiohead from a highly promising rock act into The Most Important Band in the World – a label the band has been burdened by (and has fooled around with) ever since. Through close musical analysis of each song, Dai Griffiths explores the themes and ideas that have made this album resonate so deeply with its audience, and argues that OK Computer is one of the most successfully realized CD albums so far created.
