Martin Clarke – Radiohead: Hysterical & Useless

Radiohead stand unequalled as a band of imagination, originality and popularity. Their hauntng and distinctive sound, revealed in beautifully twisted sounds of paranoia and bleak prophecies, and sung in Thom Yorke’s chilling vocals, has made them one of the most inspirational and important rock bands around today.
From the claustruphobic emotions of 'Creep’, which unleashed Radiohead onto a generation of MTV-watching slackers, through the strained sessions which would eventually unleash the awesome soundscapes of classic album OK Computer, Radiohead evolved into one of the world’s most successful rock bands.
Melancholic, introspective and politically minded, Radiohead have never been a band to take the easy option. They have continued to court controversy and take creative risks, surprising their audience with the electronic albums Kid A and Amnesiac, and emerging victorious with the recent Hail To The Thief.   źródło opisu: Plexus Publishing Limited, 2006 źródło okładki: http://plexusbooks.com/index.php?option=com_virtue…»
