Radiohead

Radiohead are an English rock band who redefined alternative rock for the digital age. Formed in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, in 1985, the quintet initially gained global fame with their 1992 hit 'Creep'. They quickly evolved beyond grunge with the layered, atmospheric rock of 'The Bends' and achieved landmark status with 1997's 'OK Computer', an album that presciently explored themes of technological alienation. The band dramatically shifted styles with 'Kid A', embracing electronic, jazz, and classical influences. This constant reinvention, coupled with innovative release strategies like the pay-what-you-want model for 'In Rainbows', has cemented their legacy as one of modern music's most influential and critically revered acts.
