"The Greatest Ablums of The '90s"
[09] RADIOHEAD
OK Computer
(Capital, 1997)
By the end of 1995, Radiohead was a one-hit wonder(thanks to 1993's
self-loathing "Creep") whose second album, THE BENDS, sold half as well
in the U.S. as their first. But as they toured the world for a bleary-eyed
year and a half to try to cultivate an audience for their increasingly
experimental music, they came up with their great theme: In the future
that's two minutes away, everywhere looks the same and no place is home.
But to tell the world that postmodern like is rubish, Radiohead had
to take themeselves out of it--at least for a while. So the band repaired
to a 15th cetury estate outside of the Bath, England, and brought in
producer Nigel Godrich. and some mellotron tapes that once belonged to
Krautrockers Tangerine Dream. the music they made could have been a
Teutonic bomb, but Thom Yorke's piercing voice always highlighted the
desperation at the core of the songs. For all its sonic layers, "Airbag"
is driven by a propulsive drums track, and "Electioneering" is a
streamlined guitar rave-up. Thanks to the bucolic setting, the mood
never got too heavy--even when they were singing about paranoia and
technologiccal overload. "It' was like at home with your friends one
day after school or doing a record," guitarist Jonny Greenwood syas,
"We set out no knowing how we were going to do what wewanted to do.
[OK Computer] is what recults when you're struggling and thrashing about"
