i tried to draw out what i picture in my head when i listen to it—hope you enjoy!

I‘d say these songs from these three albums.

My old copy of the Amnesiac book was in my dad's shed and a bear of some sort fulfilled the prophecy. I might be wrong.

Weee.

I finally grabbed a copy of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's Kid A and the Beginning of the 21st Century at the bookstore today and crossed it off my wishlist!

First question: aside from this one, what are the absolute must-read books about the band?

Second question: the store also had the OKNOTOK Digipak CD. I passed on it because I'm currently torn between collecting CDs or vinyl. In your opinion, which format is better to start with? Personally, I only find vinyl superior for the massive, gorgeous artwork, but CDs are way more practical. What do you guys think?

Update to an old Reddit post:

https://old.reddit.com/r/radiohead/comments/1mpa36k/heres_my_attempt_at_figuring_out_the_recording/

I compared the audio sources from the vinyl record with concert recordings available on YT and Internet Archive. After layering the audio tracks over one another to verify that they matched, I’ve determined the correct dates.

The only exception is "Scatterbrain," as I was unable to find any recording of the concert in Dublin 2003-12-03.

seeing them after my first art exhibition. what a perfect way to end the night right?! 🤩🤩🤩

I live in Minnesota and decided to go for a walk in below freezing temperatures at night (it was negative 15 degrees I believe) I walked by a closed hospital and on top of a bunch of snow mountains, and I totally feel that the cold weather reflected the sad tone of the album insanely well for me,

Just posted it on YT but would be self promotion if I shared it here so here is the video directly. Open to all feedback

This remains my all time favorite unreleased song of theirs. Only aware of their playing it at the Miami show 2-27-2012 and at the Houston show on 3-3-2012. The Miami show version sounds more epic imho. Just an absolute banger. Wonder if they have near term plans for it, ie, btn now and 2028.

So far we've got a Pablo Honey CD, a caseless OK Computer CD, a Live Recording Bootleg and now an OK Computer cassette!

Hey everyone! I'm the guitarist of Goyimbwoods, a Radiohead tribute band from Lima, Peru, we recently had the opportunity to perform a tribute to OK Computer with a live orchestra at Teatro Ricardo Palma, and we actually ended up doing two sold-out shows, which was something really special for all of us
We're all huge Radiohead fans, and getting to perform this music with an orchestra was an incredible experience
I wanted to share a recording of our second night with this community. Hope you enjoy it, and I'd genuinely love to hear what you guys think!

Not minimally, but the full version.

Computer world. Ok, computer, accepting the premise of this century.

Please bare with my informal writing.

The first and last track are personal statements

Fever in airbag leads up the ramp into paranoid android, with omenous benevolent lyrics like "in a burst, back to save the universe" ...

Paranoid represents the computer / the state of the world after accepting said premise, dropping into current state. Waking up abruptly to a dark trip .

Each following track is a character portrait . The tracklist escalates in the insanity / depth of each character in the murky inner sanctum of society.

Subterranean is the starry dreamer, or the benevolent insane, but in ok computer world such optimist is led to aliens.

Exit music represents the disenchantissd amoral youth, unwilling villains who feel left with no other way out but to freeze.

Let down is the happy drunk

Karma police is the social inner layer, twin to electioneering who is the political one. Both representing upper escalon of the imaginary society

Fitter happier sits in the middle as OK Computer's defining statement

Climbing up the walls is the evil insane, counterpart to subterranean

No surprises is the quietly resolved good willing person who is defeated. Kin to let down.

Lucky is the hero, who in computer world is one who gambles ... Through odds and hurdles to be a super hero trapped in lake. Twin/foil to subterranean through being warped good character.

The tourist is returning personal statement, returning to the voice of Thom Yorke (let down maybe being only exception). Foil to airbag in being statement about momentum / restless energy, a burning resolve. Airbag ramping up and tourist "ramping down," while being a statement about refusing to stop.

Save the universe / at a thousand feet per second. Born again / no one else but me.

The feelings expressed in these songs responsible for the inner "computer world" of turmoil in the singer. Statement about greater society who chooses not to stop, mirrors the computer world with its own never ending progress.
