Radiohead

The pioneers of alternative rock

Radiohead are one of the most influential bands in modern music history. Formed in 1985 in Abingdon, England, Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Ed O'Brien, Colin Greenwood and Phil Selway first made a name for themselves with their global hit "Creep" (1992) attracted international attention. But instead of resting on their laurels, they continued to develop their sound and consciously broke with classic rock structures.

Albums like "OK Computer" (1997) or "Kid A" (2000) are considered milestones that not only delighted critics, but also redefined the boundaries of rock, electronic and experimental music. With their mixture of dark soundscapes, profound lyrics and innovative production methods, the band shaped entire generations and influenced countless musicians worldwide.

Radiohead are also known for their special relationship with their fans. With unconventional release strategies such as the "pay-what-you-want" model for "In Rainbows" they set new standards in the music industry. To this day, they remain a band that interweaves art, politics and emotion - and shows that pop music can always be rethought.
