Radiohead 的"The Bends"和"OK Computer"
被Rolling Stone特刊選入90年代"Alternative"類最重要的專輯之一:
(奇怪.....Pablo Honey真的這麼慘嗎?)
RADIOHEAD
The Bends
capitol, april 1995
According to the script, Radiohead were supposed to disappear
after their flucky 1993 smash "Creep," leaving only fond memories
of Thom Yorke's Martin-Short-after-electroshock yodel and that
wukka-wukka guitar hook. But The Bends shocked everyone with its wide-screen
psychedelic glory, raising Radiohead to a very Seventies kind of U.K,
art-rock godhead. The depreeseive ballad "Fake Plastic Trees" turned up in
"Clueless, in which Alicia Silverstone memorably tags the bend as
"complaint rock"; in big-bang dystopian epics like "High and Dry,"
Yorke's choirboy whimper runs laps around Jonny Greenwood;s machinehead
guitar heroics. U2 would have sild crack to nuns to make this record.
RADIOHEAD
OK Computer
capital, july 1997
Progress is a bitch, but don't let the machines, or their masters,
grind you down; That is the simple message encoded in the art-rock
razzle-dazzle of OK Computer. Hailed as The Dark Side of the Moon for
the Information Age, Computer is too brittle in its timesignature twists
and hairpin guitar turns, too claustrophonic in mood, to qualify as space
rock. Instead, Radioheadshatter the soul-sucking echo of isolation and
enforced routine with the vilolient mood swing of "Paranoid Android" and
Thom Yorke's arcing vocal anguish in the gaunt, yearning ballads "Let Down"
and "Lucky." Somehow, OK computer went platinum a year its release--
a welcome testment that smart still sells.
