      If you want a new Radiohead album I recommend checking out "The Smile". The band has both Thom Yorke and the guitarist from Radiohead (I forgot his name rn I don't feel like looking it up) and it's basically a new Radiohead.
      It's not quite the same magic as Radiohead, but it's damn close.

    I remember going to my parents attic with my new brand KID A cd and playing this disc for the very first time. The first listening was, WTF are they doing? The second one same, third same. Trying to understand the drawings in the booklet and hoping it sounded more Ok Computerish. I was so wrong and I'm so happy that I was.

    • @TinaHyde
      @TinaHyde Год назад +5

      I had a similar experience. Only I was in my late 20s and married already. I was completely obsessed with OKC for years. When this came out, a young kid at work went with me on our lunch hour to buy the CD the day it was released. Took it back to my office and nervously unwrapped it, popped it into my boom box and closed my office door. Hit play…and then we both just sat there staring at each other, dumbfounded, confused, waiting for crunchy guitar hooks…waiting….waiting…more theremin…waiting….
      To say I was profoundly disappointed would be an understatement. But here’s the genius of Radiohead - it took me years of listening, studying, analyzing every note before I truly got it. That payoff was well worth the work. I love a band who makes you work for it.
      Long live Radiohead.

    • @mrglobemcglobeglobe8318
      @mrglobemcglobeglobe8318 Год назад +1

      Funny to read this comment - I worked REALLY HARD to like this album, playing on repeat the more familiar melodious tunes like 'How to disappear completely', and 'Motion Picture Soundtrack'. I really didn't get it at the time and didn't understand the process behind it or the creative difficulty since Ok Computer. Amnesiac completely threw me and I departed the Radiohead camp until In Rainbows which speaks for itself really. I still love a good few tracks off Amnesiac though.
      Optimistic has since become one of my favourite tracks and listening to this earlier version against the Basement session is astounding - the richness to their music matures over time.

    I remember just barely discovering Radiohead for the first time and really exploring their music and really loved Optimistic for a while.
    Then one day it played on the radio and I was pleasantly surprised; my heart lit up.
    Feels like a great song for anyone who struggles with perfectionism.
    "The best you can is good enough.".
    Really relieves me sometimes when Im pushing too hard.
    Still echoes in my mind when things don't feel right.
