No doubt about it: OK Computer is a progressive album.

When I bought this album, I could not imagine that it could be (once again) so different from the previous one. At first listen, I was quite surprised by the raise of electronic sounds, and I was not really keen on that. But after several listens, I considered this album as a masterpiece.

This album succeeds to combine so well rock tracks (Airbag, Electionnering), ballads (Karma Police, No Surprises, The Tourist) and progresive tracks like the HUGE "Paranoid Android".

Radiohead reached with this album the peak of its career. Unfortunately, starting from Kid A, Radiohead decided to previlegiate electro, and the creativity of the band started to decline...

OK Computer is a real masterpiece that (with The Bends) inspired many brittish bands like Coldplay or Muse.

4,5 stars
