That album has some of the best production...

I remember the first time I heard it on a good set of headphones and just having my mind blown.

Yeah, don't tell Radiohead fans though - they're still under the impression they changed music.

Recently voted most influential band by some online poll...

That also excluded most of the really influential bands.

I enjoy Radiohead, and whilst I don't think OK Computer is their best album I still like listening to it, my ears aren't overly precious. I think Thom Yorke achieves a unique tonal register that draws in the listener, in the same way that most obsess over MJK (albeit vastly different). Radiohead have provided me with lots of really good listening, and when I saw them for the first time in 2012 (Brisbane), it was one on the best gigs I have been too....

They didn't?

Otherwise.....

It's arthouse rock for people who are uninitiated with arthouse rock in general.

Mopey, emo rock with some studio effects thrown in for good measure.
There is nothing 'arthouse' about OK Computer at all.

Gee.

Wizz.

Great show. 8 of these 13 songs have been played on recent tours. What was it about the set list being "so" much better back then?

I just love listening to this woman sing. Such an amazing voice. She can make the most mundane songs enchanting.

I try to avoid listening to her, for some reason I always get something stuck in my eyes.

nah, didn't change music, but made the mainstream music a notch better ... and you're all crazy ... songwriting/production/etc, OK Computer is almost a perfect record

R-Head is soooo boring. The most overrated band in modern times.

That would be cold play.

Ok computer is a beautiful album.

1. Nope. There is a fair percentage of people who recognize C-play's lameness.

2. It's beautiful for putting me to sleep.

Radiohead aren't exactly "boring" per se - but neither are they the uber transcendental wunderkind that many make them out to be.

Still, I'll take em any day over what the kids of today are listening to...

I can't believe this "OK COMPUTER" bashing.

I have no love for RADIOHEAD, but that album is sublime. It didn't reinvent the wheel, nor did it intend to. It was just a solidly great album.

Saying it's worth a 5 or 6/10 is just ignorant. I know (God, how I know) taste in music is subjective, but honestly, this is blowing my mind. It's one of the most respected records of all time.

I just don't get you people sometimes.

And yes, YOB. Fucking fucking YOB.

Owned into oblivion. NP: "Nothing To Win". I imagine this is the song you hear on the escalator down to the gates of Hell.
