RADIOHEAD//Nice Dream
sounds like.
Morning walks in the park.
it's here because.
Might as well get started on Radiohead - a band I sometimes lie awake thinking about. Beyond the fanboy choice of Depeche Mode and even beyond the official answer - the importance choice of The Beatles - these five unassuming lads from Oxford probably have the best band ever to walk the earth. Go on then, whose better. They change, challenge destroy and rebuild rocknroll all at once with a wry smile as if y'know ... they're just messing about with a children's toy.
The Bends have all their first important moments and this one is a corker. It's got that Radiohead hallmark of going from a quite blissed out sound to suddenly turning on you as if you poked it too much by daring to continue listening. A ripe fruit that bears endless repeat listening and an early career highlight.
