Radiohead - OK Computer [2 LP] (180 Gram Vinyl in Gatefold Jacket)

OK Computer is the third studio album by the English alternative rock band Radiohead, released in 1997. OK Computer was the first self-produced Radiohead album, with assistance from Nigel Godrich. The band made a deliberate attempt to distance themselves from the guitar-oriented, lyrically introspective style of their previous album, The Bends. OK Computer's abstract lyrics, densely layered sound and wide range of influences laid the groundwork for Radiohead's later, more experimental work. The album initiated a shift away from the popular Britpop genre of the time to the more melancholic and atmospheric style of alternative rock that would be prevalent in the next decade. The album themes emphasis Radiohead's views on rampant consumerism, social alienation, emotional isolation, and political malaise. OK Computer is often interpreted as having prescient insight into the mood of 21st-century life, and critics have described it as one of the greatest albums ever released.
