The Profile

Radiohead are an English rock band formed in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. The members are Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O'Brien and Philip Selway. They evolved from guitar-based alternative rock into work that incorporates electronics and orchestration.

Formed as On a Friday in 1985, Radiohead achieved early fame with the song "Creep" and critical breakthroughs with albums such as The Bends (1995) and OK Computer (1997). Kid A (2000) marked a major shift toward electronic experimentation. In Rainbows (2007) was notable for its pay-what-you-want digital release. The band is internationally acclaimed and continues to perform and release music.

DeBaser's reviews celebrate Radiohead's landmark records (OK Computer, Kid A, In Rainbows) and strong live performances while offering mixed reactions to more experimental releases such as The King of Limbs. Reviewers repeatedly highlight Thom Yorke's voice, the band's move into electronics, and moments of melancholic beauty. The coverage mixes nostalgia for the band's peak with critical readings of later work.

Notable Quotes

❝ King Of Limbs is the opposite, a record made by Radiohead for Radiohead, experimental well beyond excess. Fake. Pretentious. Artificial. An exercise in style without spirit.
❝ It has everything: power, sweetness, the difficulty of living, irony, social criticism, harmony, love.
❝ Thom Yorke is undoubtedly capable of evoking forgotten sensations and distant memories.
