Description
the radioheads have always turned out to be a very proficuous band. never a project ended in recording an album, on the contrary, the albums were always the starting point for a series of remixes, u live recordings.
the emi proposed to gather all this dispersed material and, often unpublished, in re-editions that will cross the entire catalog of the radiohead. in this second phase are the albums ?kid a,? ?hail to the thief? and amnesiac. the first titles were edited on April 6 of this year.
all titles are presented in two versions: a ?collectors series,? constituted by a double cd in which cd1 reproduces the original album and cd2 contains rarities, unpublished versions and live recordings, and the ?limited edition? in which the previous double cd is complemented with a DVD.
So, in ?kid a - collectors series? cd1 that plays the original album joins the cd2 that contains new recordings and live versions
Artist
Alternative Rock (Modern Rock) band from Oxfordshire, England (United Kingdom).
The name Radiohead comes from the Talking Heads song, "Radio Head", from the "True Stories" album.
Formed by school friends in 1986, Radiohead did not release their first single until 1992's "Drill EP". The cathartic "Creep", from the debut album "Pablo Honey" (1993), became a worldwide hit as grunge music dominated radio airwaves.
Radiohead were initially branded as a one-hit wonder abroad, but caught on at home in the UK with their second album, "The Bends" (1995), earning fans with their dense guitar atmospheres and front man Thom Yorke's expressive singing. The album featured the hits "High & Dry", "Just" and "Fake Plastic Trees".
The band's third album, "OK Computer" (1997), propelled them to greater attention. Popular both for its expansive sound and themes of modern alienation, the album has been acclaimed by critics as a landmark record of the 1990's, some critics go as far to consider it one of the best of all time. "Kid A" (2000) marked further evolution, containing influences from experimental electronic music.
"Hail To The Thief" (2003) was seen as a conventional return to the guitar and piano-led rock sound. After fulfilling their contract with EMI, Radiohead released "In Rainbows" (2007) famously via a pay-what-you-want model. Their latest album, "A Moon Shaped Pool", was released in May 2016.
Radiohead's original influences were cited as alternative rock and post-punk bands like The Smiths, Pixies, Magazine, Joy Division, Siouxsie & The Banshees, who Thom Yorke claims inspired him to become a performer, and R.E.M. (with lead singer of the band, Thom Yorke, refering to himself as an 'R.E.M. groupie').
