1. Radiohead in the Archives:

RADIOHEAD were a conterversial issue when they first appeared to the Archives, However this seems to have blown away and has finally but slowly have an acceptance here, and I certainly do not mind them being here, but not everyone will be amazed, enough of the talk and on with the album.

2. The OK COMPUTER review:

OK Computer is a Post Progressive record with background pulsating spacey synths and weird and dark atmosphere.

The Tracks I like the most:

- Airbag is the opener here and will strike you as a typical indie rock track, but there are strange sounds and dark and eerie vocals here.

- Paranoid Android has a great acoustic guitar riff as an opener, not exacly prog but an excellent indie rock track and has a very strange animation video though. - Karma Police is my favourite OK COMPUTER track of all time and is a great acoustic pop rock track and has a killer guitar solo at the end that just blows me.

- Fitter Happier very strange track, computerised voice that sounds like Homer Simpson and the piano playing is weird and a lot of strange composions in the music, a dark atmosphere with a futuristic industrial feel.

- No Suprises is another favourite of mine with lovely instrumentation and nice vocals, and is a light uplifting track compared to the others, the specey synths in the background are also a good addition too, mainly acoustic.

Recommendation:

I recommend this album if you like modern rock music AND recommended if you like modern Art Rock, not necessarily Prog but is enough to be placed here as a experimental indie post Prog album, final verdict 9 out of 10.
