Radiohead: Hysterical & Useless - Softcover
With their third album, OK Computer, Radiohead are emerging as one of the most popular and influential bands of the 1990s. The distinctive sound of lead singer Thom Yorke's folky voice and dark lyrics set against heavy guitars has gained them fans around the world and already spawned a host of imitators and cover versions. Radiohead is the first book to delve deeply into the history of the band - its origins in Oxford where the band were childhood friends, the breakthrough single 'Creep', the second multi-platinum album The Bends, and the unusual recording sessions for OK Computer. It also examines the psyche and personal demons of the enigmatic Thom Yorke.
