Thanks for watching guys as always! If you're a Radiohead fan, I'd love to know which you think is their best album as I've seen different opinions on this.
I think that their first four records are really good at what they were trying to do. Yes I like pablo honey. Most of those song rock hard. But my favourite is probably Ok computer. Even though thats the one everyone likes.
It's not one of their most talked about albums, but I often find myself returning to A Moon Shaped Pool. In terms of their best album though, it's hard to argue that it's not OK Computer imo. In Rainbows isn't too far off. But OK Computer is their masterpiece.
@@coquierik6643 i think its a good record but i just prefer ok computer and the bends tbh. But kid a is also nice everything in its place is a hell of a opener. Like it very much.
Damn, hearing the guitar alone really exposes the grungeness of it. Those complicated layers of beats, psychedelia and noises on top of this is what makes Radiohead sound unlike anything else.
As much as I love pretty much all their material, I'd love if Radiohead released one more big guitar album. I think it'd bring their discography full circle. Anyway, great vid. The tone on Airbag is spot on.
@@S728-u9x Because instrumentally it sounds like a happy lullaby, but with the dark lyrics on top, it becomes a whole new song. Sort of like Girlfriend in a Coma by The Smiths. Super happy and innocent sounding song on the surface but the lyrics are the complete opposite.
My favorite Radiohead riffs are their arpeggios or more subtle ones. In 'In Rainbows', they are so simple but vibrant like reckoner and 15 step. The guitar part from nude feels like a sad hug tho and I love it for that. Most underrates ones are probably from Hail to Thief (I will and Sail To The Moon). Present Tense is also cool
I've been waiting so long for this one! You sent chills down my spine when you played "Airbag" and "My Iron Lung". You nailed the tones on them for sure. Their first two albums have tons of great riffs on them with songs like "You", "Just", and "Planet Telex". I'd love to see you cover those in the future.
Another great video, and it's hard to pull off the essence of Radiohead's songs with one guitar only. But you nailed it as usual. Glad to see The Bends and Optimistic making the cut. Cheers!
Nice one mate, 👏👏. I spent about 50 mins about 11 yrs ago 'writing' Iron Lung, it felt familiar but I pressed on. When my missus came back from shopping I proudly played it her. "Well, what do you think?" "Wow, you worked out how to play Iron Lung, congratulations 🎊 !" I was so disappointed, then chuffed, she was right, I had learnt how to play Iron Lung 😂, I thought that it might have been a Beatles song when I was 'writing' it. 🤣 Like deployed 👍 😎🎸✅
Solid picks and great playing as always! Thom, Jonny and Ed can really come up with some seemingly basic, but surprisingly intricate and memorable guitar lines. Guitar wise, "Let Down" is one of my faves, for the tricky timing and seamless layering of the guitar tracks. Also have a soft spot for "No Surprises" and the haunting "Street Spirit".
I’m subscribed and am pleasantly surprised with your choices like dark entries in one of your recent ones hopefully maybe STP or Siouxsie and the Banshees soon.good job.
props to putting in little by little, go to sleep, and the bends' title track--all killer songs that absolutely need more attention. this video is rad as fuck
Despite the fact that Radiohead doesn’t like this particular song Creep but, still perform it at some points, it is actually a good riff because of how the verse chord progressions is an arpeggio.
wow you absolutely nailed the tone and feel on these! radiohead has so many incredible riffs. as for best album it's an impossible choice but ok computer as a statement album from seemingly out of nowhere was almost unbelievable
Surprised to not see anything from Pablo Honey that album has some pretty decent guitar riffs Oh and yeah as usual I made a playlist on ideas for your videos this time it's guitar riffs from bands with animal names I don't know I thought it was a fun idea
Songs that should’ve been on the list as well: Electioneering Weird Fishes Let Down Just Street Spirit The National Anthem (bass riff) 2+2 = 5 Jigsaw Falling Into Place No Surprises You
@@cornflakesyuh3235 I really do agree. It sounds so beautiful. I would also say (Nice Dream) but I’m not 100% sure if it has a specific riff in it, but the chord progressions are really lovely on that one.
Your tones are somehow freaking accurate.. How tf? Also, I think Pablo Honey have some good riffs... Especially "You" which is pretty sick because it kinda sounds almost metal to me and to this day remain the heaviest guitar sound they did, for me
How have I not seen this one yet? And I completely agree with this list!! Only thing I'd change is the last 2, but I'm not sure which exactly I'd replace them with since there's so many good ones to choose from
I love that more than half of these are post Ok Computer, which is after they allegedly had turned away from guitar driven rock. Even then they never stopped keeping the core matter of coming up with killer guitar riffs alive and well.

I probably favoured some of the 'grungier' ones as that's what I'm into.
raidohead was a grunge band to start
@@drearynonsense203 Yep, they became something uncategorizable
@@numsiskit categorized for me as hipster music.
@@stevefromyellowstone7911 haha can't tell if trolling or not
Knives out is criminally underrated as a Radiohead riff
It's just PA riff but cringier
@@darkjesy7736 cmon bro
@@darkjesy7736the only similarity is that it starts with a c minor
Honestly you're a creator who I always look forward to seeing pop up in my recomended. Your videos are awesome
Oh thanks! Glad you like them.
@@bloxsy_ Oh my god. Thanks so much for the reply, made my day. Keep being you :))
I love how your guitar sounds on Airbag. Airbag is easily my favorite opening song on a Radiohead album
Everything in its right place >>>
15 step is mine but ok computer is a MASTERPIECE, and airbag is the better song easily in my opinion
I agree.
Man, there's like 4 different riffs in Paranoid Android and they're all awesome. My favourite is in the chorus of the first section, the very high one
If you end up doing a part 2 could you include “Just” it’s a really powerful song with a crazy riff
Myxomatosis would be really good as well
would also like electioneering in a pt 2
would love for him to cover the ending riff of Just loool so good
solo*
I love the equipment you use. That Bodysnatchers riff comes out crisp!
As much as I love pretty much all their material, I'd love if Radiohead released one more big guitar album. I think it'd bring their discography full circle.
Anyway, great vid. The tone on Airbag is spot on.
LP10. The self titled Radiohead album. Their magnum opus.
noticed how even on their less guitar based albums (kid a, amnesiac) there's a bunch of awesome guitar riffs?
@@szymondudzinski6661 Radiohead are sneaky like that
I think The Bends is the album you're looking for.
@@juanandresamarilesfranco8767 awesome pfp dude
Man, I will never get tired of that Paranoid Android riff, it just sounds awesome. Great video dude, awesome taste as always!
Your overdrive tone is spot on! Especially on Airbag, pretty uncanny. May I ask what pedals you're using here?
I'm using a Boss Katana with a built in distortion effect.
@@bloxsy_ Damn….no pedal 🤯
And I know what Katana amp your talking about I just saw it in GC a few hours ago
@@azraelfirstofhisname8695 its really an incredible amp and you can't beat the price.
a lot of these sound exactly like the original, its crazy
Glad There, There got love. One of my first songs I learned. I still love the creepy No Surprises riff most!
No surprises is a good one.
how is it creepy
@@S728-u9x Because instrumentally it sounds like a happy lullaby, but with the dark lyrics on top, it becomes a whole new song. Sort of like Girlfriend in a Coma by The Smiths. Super happy and innocent sounding song on the surface but the lyrics are the complete opposite.
@@jessedubay5964 the person i was replying to said the riff itself was creepy though
@@S728-u9x yeah i guess it can be creepy when you know the context it's associated with. but in a vaccum it's not creepy
I found it cool that you featured songs off TKOL and HTTT, less represented yet still very good albums
So glad The Bends made the list. Top 5 Radiohead songs for me
Wow you’ve really outdone yourself here. Absolutely brill esp My Iron Lung. I have a soft spot for the album’ the Bends ‘ one of my faves of all time
My favorite Radiohead riffs are their arpeggios or more subtle ones. In 'In Rainbows', they are so simple but vibrant like reckoner and 15 step.

Thanks man. I'll have to check out more of that stuff. Definitely have become more of a Radiohead fan after doing this vid.
I am glad you included bodysnatchers and there, there. They are one of my favourite Radiohead songs, but at the same time they are very underrated
Damn you got the tone and distortion exactly right EVERY TIME
I love airbag’s riff, it’s such a good way to start an album. You did amazing!!!
Oh thank you!
Another great video, and it's hard to pull off the essence of Radiohead's songs with one guitar only. But you nailed it as usual. Glad to see The Bends and Optimistic making the cut. Cheers!
Thanks!
dude these tones are absolutely nuts. basically spot on to the records.
Thanks mate.
The tone accuracy is impeccable. Phenomenal job
Thank you very much!
I think Radiohead has made the best albums ever.
This deserve a second part for sure! I liked your selection a lot because you didnt choose the biggest hits.
Thanks!
Nice one mate, 👏👏.

Dude your Airbag is PERFECT. Wow.
Well done (as usual.) Jonny Greenwood is a big reason I play a Telecaster
Parabéns Man, adoro seu canal. E tem vídeos das bandas que eu mais curto e construíram minha identidade musical. Um abraço aqui do Brasil, sucesso!
BRASIL PORRA!
BRASILLL
caralho!!
Ihaaaa
e issoo
The musical bridge in Just is absolutely beautiful
I love this channel because the guitars you use aren't like expensive or high end but your tone always sounds fire as hell.
How can Radiohead make so beautiful yet so depresive at same time?
Airbag intro always give me shivers down my spine!
Amazing that you included Little by Little. That's one of my fav riffs and songs by them. TKOL is truly underrated
you nailed every single one in playing and tone damn really well done!!
Thanks man.
rare to see a tkol riff on a list like this, little by little is criminally underrated and is one of their best songs, especially live.
Been waiting for this and I couldn’t be happier
Amazing tone and sustain! Looks like a lot of crazy ass tunings for some of these riffs
Brilliant, faithful renditions of some classics
I’m subscribed and am pleasantly surprised with your choices like dark entries in one of your recent ones hopefully maybe STP or Siouxsie and the Banshees soon.good job.
Bodysnatch, i might be wrong, optimistic, even little by little! Love those riffs and thanks by nailing em especially optimistic!

My Iron Lung is one of the most satisfying riffs I’ve ever learned
I love that you started this Bodysnatchers ugh 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I was hoping to hear Electioneering, my favorite Radiohead riff. Still a really cool selection.
I know it’s one of their bests for sure
love how incredibly nasty that songs tone is. telecaster at the bridge having the ever living christ beaten out of it. lovely.
The upstrokes on beat one! That’s the extra magic.
i’m so glad that my dad got me into radiohead! keep up the good work :)
Airbag riff makes me cry. Masterpiece. Thank you.
Bless you!!! I had a song riff in my head and couldn’t remember a single lyric or title. Found this video and there it was at 20 seconds.
my iron lung goes harddddd
wow you absolutely nailed the tone and feel on these! radiohead has so many incredible riffs. as for best album it's an impossible choice but ok computer as a statement album from seemingly out of nowhere was almost unbelievable
I always found Airbag an interesting song. The way the drums are set, and the inicial guitar riff make it stand out from the rest.
Reminds me of why I love Radiohead
Tone is just bang on. Unreal
Really good tones man! Could almost hear the full band kicking in a few times in my head.
Your choice of artists, of songs, of guitars and of course your attention to the tune, you're the guitarist i always wanted to be.
thank you !!! you always make a video about band that i am listening now
Surprised to not see anything from Pablo Honey that album has some pretty decent guitar riffs
Oh and yeah as usual I made a playlist on ideas for your videos this time it's guitar riffs from bands with animal names I don't know I thought it was a fun idea
"go to sleep" is a radiohead's best songs
You are living the dream, Bloxsy.
Amazing, never got to appreciate the guitar riffs on their own as much as just did.
Little by Little! So overlooked.
Songs that should’ve been on the list as well:
Electioneering
Weird Fishes
Let Down
Just
Street Spirit
The National Anthem (bass riff)
2+2 = 5
Jigsaw Falling Into Place
No Surprises
You
I think Black Star is another good riff.
@@Joelster-og4pf true I like that one a lot and forgot it
@@cornflakesyuh3235 I really do agree. It sounds so beautiful.
I would also say (Nice Dream) but I’m not 100% sure if it has a specific riff in it, but the chord progressions are really lovely on that one.
Man ive seen your channel grow for so long and im glad you are where you are rn, keep it up!
Optimistic is soooo great 🥺
:D didn't know you posted this im so happy you include there there its my favorite
I might be wrong is so underrated it hurts
You always pick the best and underrated riffs of artists I love that
really good video. these riffs are great
Killed it! Great job man!
Your tones are somehow freaking accurate.. How tf? Also, I think Pablo Honey have some good riffs... Especially "You" which is pretty sick because it kinda sounds almost metal to me and to this day remain the heaviest guitar sound they did, for me
I've waited for this day for months
Hope it was worth the wait. I haven't really done much Radiohead before.
@@bloxsy_ It was, thank you very much for making this! If you are planning to make a sequel, I suggest Just, Paranoid Android and The National Anthem!
Thom and Jonny really did make some of the best riffs.
I dont know why I like these videos so much.
My fav is Optimistic. Got Goosebumps!
Glad to see some love for hail to the thief
Just my friend, Just. It should be on the list
How have I not seen this one yet?
And I completely agree with this list!! Only thing I'd change is the last 2, but I'm not sure which exactly I'd replace them with since there's so many good ones to choose from
Thanks Bloxsy 🦊
Thank you!

I really love optimistic.
My iron lung - nice!!! Well done!
i’ve been thinking of joining the jazzmaster club, this may be swaying my decision… nice playing mate! 🤙🏼
That tone is spot on
That tone's *SWEETT* awesome stuff as always
Top 10 bloxy videos next?
Haha why not
This is great. I would love to know the tunnings.
"There, There" is a masterpiece.
I know There There is DBDGBE. I think Bodysnatchers, Optimistic, and I Might Be Wrong are all drop D.
God I love playing I might be wrong, it's a really great riff
You're a beast! Awesome playing!
Thanks!
As a certified radiohead expert (that's a fancy way of saying "virgin") - you did an amazing fucking job
Surprised Optimistic is number one! Always been my favorite Radiohead song, but I don’t hear it talked about much.
Perfect tune in all riffs.. congrats!!!!
OK Computer. Simply for Let Down. Still gives me goosebumps! 👏🏻🎶
Bloxsy is also a radiohead fan? gotta love this dude
Awesome video, appreciate the bit of TKOL love
The 15 step riff is TERRIBLY underrated.
Absolutely awesome brother 💥
you make radiohead sound good
honestly that's not something even radiohead does, so congrats
