The story of Radiohead really goes back as far as 1985, when the group first began rehearsing at Abingdon School in Oxfordshire. True Love Waits (2016) First performed way back in 1995, True Love Waits was an unreleased live favourite for more than two decades before a studio recording finally appeared on A Moon Shaped Pool – at the fourth time of asking.

None more typified the approach than Reckoner, easily a standout track with its gliding melody and communal percussion.īloom (2011) Ensuring fans couldn’t assume the band were mellowing after a fifth No1 album, Radiohead returned with perhaps their most aggressively experimental record to date when they released The King Of Limbs, its opener being Bloom. Reckoner (2007) Some spacious arrangements and light-fingered production benefited a collection of songs that had debuted on a tour leading up to the release of Radiohead's seventh album, In Rainbows. There, There (2003) The lead single from the album Hail To The Thief, in many ways signaling Radiohead's return to a more familiar, guitar-led sound – or at least weaving it in more generously to the sound developed on their previous two records.

I Might Be Wrong (2001) Proof of the band’s ability to be playful with instrumentation and arrangement while still delivering an infectious hook, I Might Be Wrong featured on Amnesiac, released only eight months after Kid A. Its title track here is about as far from the mainstream as the group could imaginably veer. Kid A (2000) The album Kid A was hugely experimental and heavily reliant on electronics, and was not promoted by any singles. The group's trademark dissonance is evident in the pitch-black lyrics set against a cradling lullaby. No Surprises (1997) The first track recorded for OK Computer, and the version used is the very first take. Talk Show Host (1996) Undoubtedly Radiohead’s most famous B-side, Talk Show Host appeared on Street Spirit (Fade Out) and hinted in January 1996 at some of the experimentation and dark minimalism to be expected from OK Computer and beyond. Not stylistically dissimilar from what came before, but a more spacious and careful set of arrangements. My Iron Lung (1994) A first taste of The Bends, a decidedly more accomplished, mature and complete second album. Don't fancy tackling Radiohead's entire catalogue in one go? These ten tracks will introduce you to the band's nine albums.Ĭreep (1992) Preceded only by a 3000 CD run of the Drill EP earlier in 1992, Creep became an anthem for the alienated, peaking at No7 in the UK charts, and in truth still stands out for its combination of complexity and melody among Radiohead’s earliest work.
