Radiohead is a weird band. After cutting their teeth in the '90s britpop scene and crossing over to the US with familiar alt rock sounds, they decided to take things in a slightly... different direction. Since the late '90s, Radiohead has refused to retread musical ground, constantly pushing themselves to explore surprising sounds and experiment with new compositional techniques. No two Radiohead albums are alike, and yet through all that variety they've remained surprisingly recognizable. There's something that makes their work sound inherently Radiohead, and I want to know what.
