The Greatest Music
OK Computer
by Radiohead
The 75th greatest album of all time
OK Computer is Radiohead's 1997 album that expands their alternative rock roots into art rock and electronic-influenced territory, pairing layered guitars and dense textures with electronic touches and Thom Yorke's expressive vocals. The record emphasizes atmospheric arrangements, unconventional song structures, and lyrics concerned with alienation, technology, and modern life, marking a turning point toward a more experimental and expansive sound for the band.
