A Brief History of Radiohead
"A six and a half minute long song about a sad robot"
Couldn't have described it better myself
Jay birb I read this as the video said it, CREEPY
Poor Marvin.
Summary: Radiohead is really good. Also their fans are really annoying. And we know, but it's ok, because Radiohead is really good. No, we won't shut up about it. Yes, we know we're annoying. Listen to Radiohead.
Btw they're the greatest band of all time.
@@andremartinez4411 *laughs in pink floyd*
people like you are the reason it took me so long to finally listen to them
@@_paperasonica_1050 Don't kill me, but I think that Radiohead and Pink Floyd are equally as good tbh.
@@_paperasonica_1050 *laughs in Beatles*
Greatest part of Radiohead is being a fan and worst part are Radiohead fans
idk why would people even refer to fandom. Maybe, only if you want to be annoyed.
more like "the best thing about radiohead is that they are a band, the worst part are radioahead fans"
I agree.
2nd worst fandom behind Rick and Morty. Why can't they just simply say "yeah i listen to radiohead" instead of lecturing me on how airbag uses an Eaddsus9 chord
Rayyan Khan airbag is one of their most visceral and ethereal songs of their entire discography thou... (sorry)
That muffled voice makes me want to die
That muffled voice makes me want the creator of this video to die
Agreed. Video would have been much better without the gimmick. Unnecessary, unfunny and detracts from otherwise good content.
ugh same. I have really bad trouble focusing and fuckin mumbling doesn’t help
Haha I thought it was funny!
I find it really fucking hilarious
"Your a sky, your a sky full of stars" Thom Yorke.
Coldplay. The band that wanted to be Radiohead
SaydbossOMG opposite way round
BiggestHexBugFan, "your," really?
"you're a kid, you're a kid who doesn't know the difference between you're and your" me
"Despacito"
- Jonny greenwood
My favorite song from them is Wonderwall
Nah, Oasis didn't rip off Radiohead. They ripped off The Beatles.
Empatheia Universalis nah dude their best song is viva la vida from their album origin of symmetry
Plug In Baby is one of their best guitar based anthems too
Mine is Song 2.
You guys make me feel ashamed to be a Radiohead fan
Love how this video celebrates the legacy of Radiohead and make fun of his annoying, pretentious fanbase at the same time.
Mario Sánchez THIS should be top comment
Simple minded people just can't understand their genius, can they? Sigh. If only people were able to see they're objectively the best band ever.
In addition to making fun of unimpressed douche bags at the same time.
I didn't know just how pretentious i was......until now
Its not my fault the 5 greatest bands of all time are.
1.Radiohead
2.Radiohead
3.Radiohead
4.Radiohead
and
5.Radiohead
My favorite song from them is Knights of Cydonia from their album Dark Side of the Moon
Empatheia Universalis mine is in bloom from the album blood sugar sex magic
Personally i prefer Heart Shaped Box from the album Origin of Symmetry, but that's a great one too.
Let's not forget Yellow and Wonderwall
And what about the album Hypnotize and Mesmerize? My favourite song was Time is Running out, My Chemical Peppers still being a great band even after dying Kurt Van Ghol. (Zorry5badEnglish)
What about "My Plugin Baby"?
completely skipped pablo honey
Max Roskilly what is that?
Honestly my favorite album from them
No one wants to hear about it anyway
Because it's the non-greatest album of all time! #stopwhispering
and Hail to the Thief to an extent
thom yorke and the radioheads
actually it's tom york and the radioheads
Angus Wilson no it's.. it's Thom Yorke
Bliss who's that? I thought we were taking about the taking heads song.
"HYUCK HYUCK HYUCK" (Thom's laughter)
Just like Jim Morrison and the Doors :P
My favorite Radiohead song is Yellow
I thought that was Oasis
I thought that was Blur
Naw man, pretty sure it was Muse
Sudev Sen Coldplay?
You're forgetting Shiver!
Radiohead: The only band to have 8 "the greatest albums of all-time."
Radiohead: Still the only band to have 8 “the greatest albums of all-time.”
@@jacoblyons79 It's 9 now
@@ofekshtain8246 I think they left out PH on purpose
My favorite song from them is Lithium
You and whose army ☺
Mines 1979
Man don't forget Jeremy
What? Lithium is by Coldplay not Radiohead
Lithium is good, but nowhere near as magnificent as their magnum opus, Wonderwall.
This was Anthony Fantano in high school
he actually listend to cringe nu metal, like papa roach and limp bizkit
LMAO
and he listened to the strokes in college
My favorite song from them is their cover of a Leonard Cohen song called Hallelujah from their album Meat is Murder
Starlight from The Queen Is Dead is way better
Sound of Silver off The Smiths self titled is my fav.
lmao
Average Radiohead fan

+JHLFFC i wanted to comment the same thing but you beat me to it :(
empty sky same though 😂
HA BECAUSE THE LINES KEEP MOVING! I GET YOU!
'In 2011 Radiohead pulled the greatest prank of all time and released TKOL'
dead
This is basically me when I try to explain to my friends Radiohead is amazing.
0 response.
same or anything else i like
My friends make fun of me for it. I do too.
Nabeel Zulkifli same. Sigh.
Nabeel Zulkifli same
jesus christ, pitchfork. I get that he has a wonky eye but you sure made thom look like one ghoulish slimedog. yikes man.
The animators aren't good enough to draw people how they actually look so they rely on tracing and over exaggerating noticeable facial features on people. This can be ok at times but over exaggerating a lazy eye like how they did in this video is in poor taste imo.
All of Radiohead's albums are the greatest of all time.
Carlos Ramirez O F A L L T I M E
their only non greatest album of all time is pablo honey
Adé rye And king of the limbs
Petit The King of Limbs Live From the Basement is on the same level as OKC though
(In my opinion of course)
People who always talk about art like their opinion is a fact.
I love how they say that every album is the best except for king of limbs.
And they said king of limbs was the greatest prank of all time
two door-to-door Mormon style blokes
::knock knock::
"good morning, sir. do you have a moment to talk about Radiohead?"
credit to the internet.
I had a dream last night that Radiohead showed up at this small festival and there were only like 5 people in the crowd. It was great because I was right up by them playing, but then Thom Yorke started twerking on me..
Had the same dream
@@mooduwu007 I believe you
My uncle had that dream too
Hey my buddy Eric had that dream
@@oli7642 dude I don't remember commenting this lmao. It must have been at a strange time in my life..
Only Radiohead fans have the IQ to get Rick and Morty.
mysterywhiteboy72 leave us the fuck out of this. Please.
mysterywhiteboy72 I'm not sure if that's an insult or a compliment, but I'll take it!!
Lmao yes!
i'm both radiohead and rick&morty trash and i should feel offended but nah this is hilarious lmao
If only
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Radiohead's main singer Chris Martin. Soo CUTE
You mean Thom Yorke?
In rainbows, hail to the thief, amnesiac, OK computer, Kid A, A Moon shaped pool, the bends and pablo honey are the greatest albums of all time. Like, so far
Paul Portuondo did you say....Pablo Honey?
NO!
Pablo Honey is a lie
U know king of limbs is bad when it gets excluded on a list that even Pablo honey made it on to
Jahan Kassah That album isn't one of the "masterpieces" ,but i prefer that album rather than pablo honey
Sudev Sen Dude, it was a joke, everybody knows that pablo honey sucks
This was fucking dope it should be a series with varying art styles and scenarios for displaying a musical acts' talent.
My favorite song from Coldplay is " Creep ".
This video can get a flan in the face
this video is when you fucked, don`t you did?
A flan in the face
a flan in the face
don't you dare
a. F L A N in the face
Dance you fucker dance you fucker
Radiohead is the best band of all time. Period. I'm not being arrogant or thick headed. Its a fact written somewhere. In the Bible or the Dead sea scrolls, perhaps. But there is no denying this is objective truth.
not even close
Gandhar Kulkarni it's a persuasive argument.
Gandhar Kulkarni me trying 2 convince myself of smthing that isn't true
Gandhar Kulkarni The Beatles
Lol. You must be genuinely depressed.
After watching this, and deepcuts guide, and Fantano’s worst to best, and Micdrops 107 facts
I think I’m starting to understand
me slowly they unfurl... Like lotus flowers
me you're me, except I agree with Scaruffi's position on Radiohead after all that.
......that’s all bullshit
or you could just listen to the music
Don't listen to what fantano says, he's a fucking Melon
My favorite song from them is 'The Man Who Sold the World' from their album 'Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.' Apparently, David Bowie really liked this song too because he covered it.
their best song is street spirit
Every Radiohead fan knows their greatest song is pop is dead closely followed by both anyone can play guitar and creep...........
I have no idea why I wrote this comment.
Do Smashing Pumpkins and Primus
projecticeman365 nah man primus sucks
young 50stacks hahaha nice one!
sp sucks
projecticeman365 YES
I mean DO primus, would love to know why every bassist on the planet idolizes them, besides the obvious
Radiohead: *plays one note*
Their fans: *OMG THIS IS THE GREATEST THING EVER !!!1!!!!111!!!!*
Lmao Pablo Honey sounds more like nirvana than oasis
3:52 "they pulled the greatest prank of all time by releasing king of limbs digitally a day early"
death grips fans like wtf
strange, malnourished and sad
fuckin' FOX lol
Me in a nutshell
Phthalo Purp why are you taking about me :|
A poor man's Coldplay
No, its the shit version.
No music has ever given me chills and an intense visceral, emotional reaction like Radiohead’s music. Contradictory to lots of music, it’s best listened to alone, not with friends or distractions. Although I believe they’ve been a bit under-appreciated in their time, I believe an over-appreciation would have led them to end things. Sort of like what nirvana was seemingly on the path to doing.
Omg i totally agree with everything you just said lol
To be fair, you have to have a pretty high IQ to enjoy Radiohead.
This better be a joke or you're gonna get roasted for being pretentious jussayin
ZXQaos Don't worry, it is.
Rick and Morty and Radiohead fanbases are pretty similar tbqh (I love both but I wouldn't consider myself a "fan")
Fuck this hahhaahah wtf
Typical Radiohead fan (including the "joke" part).
This is just beautiful. I can't believe there's people whom could get bothered with this. The fandom needs this.
THE YORKIES HURRA
Based on real experiences of p4k writers
I love the video and Radiohead but where's Pablo Honey?
Isak not a true fan :o
Pablo what???
What's Pablo honey lol
Who's Pablo, how should I know where he is, and why are you calling me honey?
What’s a Pablo Honey ?
That picture of Yorke with the half-closed eye just kills me.
AWESOME! Do Shoegaze! lots of comedy in them noise rock.
Guys im looking for some good shoegaze music, wanna help me out? :)
Yeah ive been listening to that for ages too :) anything similar sounding ? Cheers m8.

You guys are awesome, thank you :)
Pitchfork please I beg of you make this a show. Idk how but I’ve gotten attached to all of these characters.
I BEG
I love In Rainbows so much man I can't even describe how much love that album
One of my friends got so down listening to OK Computer that he had to go on antidepressants...seriously! He hated any mention of the band, especially Paranoid Android, a song I still adore.
You can tell they are real fans because they skipped Pablo Honey
Do post punk
what about pop punk
fool it was a joke I know pop punk sucks ass
The fall, best band ever
Салам постпанкерам ебать
go even further and do post rock. scratch that, do post music
Awesome video, guys. Loved that every album is the greatest album of all time
trying to parody the fact that pitchfork has had a constant hard on for radio for the past year or so. Nice double down.
This video :
99.9999% THE GREATEST ALBUM OF ALL TIM
The rest is random stuff
So almost all of there albums are the greatest album of all time? Well...
You're right
Hilarious at times, but mostly just cringeworthy
N Zhng
It points out the fellow cringy fans in the base. I love Radiohead, but our fan base is extremely annoying often times
There're plenty memes about annoying Radiohead fans out there that are actually fun and nice and are welcomed by the fans, so it's not the content here that is cringeworthy, but rather how they present it. The script is just bad.
N Zhng it only was cringeworthy for me, like, we get that radiohead fans r all like this, but this video tried to make fun of it in a "cool way" that was more cringeworthy than anything and now i am embarrassed of whoever did this video
Go watch the emo one. It’s cringeworthy but not as pretentious as this
That drawing of Thom Yorke though...😂
Fun fact that you probably knew: A Moon Shaped Pool came out a few months after the death of Rachel Owen, Thom Yorke's spouse, and a lot of the music in A Moon Shaped Pool revolves around his mental stress after the passing of Rachel Owen.
I really didn't think I'd see more of this series, truly I have been blessed
This is funny and awesome... like self-conscious and satirical but also informative.
the kids just sitting there not moving. cracking up.
2:11 BARRETT!! YAAAS! one of my favourite albums ever! Did not expect to see it!
Drink a shot every time you hear "the greatest album of all time"
So basically rick and morty but music
and its actually good
what the fuck are you on about
My fav song is Wonderwall
It would be funnier if you picked a band that actually ripped off Radiohead, like Coldplay. Oasis ripped off The Beatles.
Agree. But i don't know any Coldplay's song and the video was mentionenting Oasis haha
C mamo :v
danman6669
Not sure about Coldplay. Stylistically they don't have much in common
Giorgi Nemsitsveridze Well, but it's truth that Chris Martin said Radiohead inspired Coldplay a lot. And you can even hear the influence in some of their songs. I mean, before Coldplay became a shitty pop band, of course. I love their older stuff.
I actually think that the bends was their best album
@@__Aiden__ It's just his opinion...😕
Get him boys
I totally understand your love for Radiohead. I haven’t stopped listening to them since the 90s.
"This led to their 9th greatest album of all time, A moon shaped pool"
Not TRUE Radiohead fans if they ignore Pablo Honey while mentioning the singles off that album; especially while praising singles like Creep that the band hated when songs like "You" and "Blow Out" were the true gems of that era of Radiohead's awkward hair and scraggly striped, long-sleeve shirts >:( lolololl
I prefer prove yourself and I can't
Lurgee
those Smiths pastiche songs are trash, Radiohead is just radio friendly plagiarism of the band Can
Honestly a real gem off a less than stellar album. Lurgee is so many things right when it comes to the emotion of it.
This is such a cool and beautiful way to make a brief history, i loved it!
YOU GUYS SHOULD DO HISTORY OF PUNK
I'm surprised you didn't bring up that the dance moves in lotus flower is Thom pantomiming the lyrics
Best bend evah.
I mean band.
Best (the) bend(s) ever
Saint BOOGNISH? Ween reference in a video about Radiohead? Cool stuff.
Seeing Radiohead fans saying that they didn't like the video just make this even funnier.
This squiggle vision type animation reminds of cartoons in the late 90s.
This is pure 100% raw, unrefined, concentrated cringe.
Ethan Aguilar go fuck yourself edgelord millennial
Sid R. You feel better, bitch?
awww cringe culture is so fascinating
I hate everything about this video except the facts.* I legit couldn't even finish it.*
@@DroneCorpse i mean he's right, its annoying as fuck
as a radiohead fan, this is my exact mindset when talking to someone about radiohead for the first time
* 5:19 paranoid android intensifies*
A brief history of green day next please
I wish I was smart enough to like Radiohead...😢
Coldplay = Algebra
Radiohead = Advanced Calculus
Jesus i got this as an ad and it felt like it went on for ages.
00:45 It's Kenny
Thom’s eyeball is correct
"Jigsaw Falling Into Place" is the road to awe.
Please do oasis
My favorite Radiohead song is Time Is Running Out
irotinmyskin u just didn't reference muse
holy fuck i hate muse
Y'all Supersonic is a BOP. Thom Yorke outdid himself on that one.
Amazing illustrations and animation work! Love it!
I love “talk show host”
Want to show this to my friends who tease me for liking Radiohead so much but don't want them to have to deal with that muffled mascot talking bullshit
these joren cull animations are so good, please don't stop. shoegaze next?
BEST THING I'VE EVER WATCH THIS WEEK
You don't watch much do ya?
Alan Wilson No lol I was just exaggerated. I mean I really like Radiohead, and this animation is great
Wait, why no mention of Pablo Honey? That was their first album. edit: oh I see, that was on purpose to reflect how their fans are jackasses who pretend it doesn't exist.
as a radiohead fan i find this annoying
as a radiohead fan (fairly new fan, as a matter of fact), i find this horrible, as well as somewhat educational and funny
We - Want - These - Animations - Back. Pitchfork, make it happen.
"The worlds most aesthetically challenging rockstar"
Jesus 😂
The muffled voice ruined this video
What were they thinking..?
Leave Kenny alone, he likes Radiohead.
Well I thought it was funny
Agreed, it's unwatchable
I thought it was hilarious 😂😂😂
that was very uncomfortable to watch
At 2:23 i thought
JAAAAAILPUP!
but on Thom Yorke's voice
This looks like something I'd watch on IFC at like 2 in the morning.
I think thom or johnny must to see this lol
I watched it with Phil at an interview once - his reaction definitely implied he'd seen it before, so I'd bet they have
