Biography Radiohead emerged from the fading '90s Brit-pop invasion with a sound that was moody, melodic, and explosive, with roots planted firmly in both alternative culture and the art-rock legacy of such classic rockers as Pink Floyd. With the release of 1997's OK Computer, Radiohead was among the most closely watched bands of the decade, drawing on influences as varied as Queen, R.E.M., and Miles Davis. The Oxford musicians were embraced as saviors of modern guitar rock, only to resurface in 2000 with a new sound heavy with electronics, minimal vocals, and few guitars.

Most dance acts should be so lucky if their second single becomes half as popular as their first, and putting together an entire album is way out of reach for most. I think CB have a sort of rock approach towards the music: They have a distinct style, but th…
