After gaining world wide recognition through `the bends` radiohead attempted to relive that fame via `ok computer`. Another successful album is here with 12 tracks and some great hits. The first track `airbag` immedialty will grip the listener and has a strong relation to the previous album. The second track is the famous `paranoid android` and is a very complex song contains heavy and mellow themes. Its 7/4 time gives the song that progressive feel and has a great video if you get the chance to see it. This album has song after song of quality. `Exit music` is a very dreary but great song and could easily be one of the best tracks on the album. Track 6-`karma police` is one of the best written by the band and has a stunning chorus. There are many other great songs on this album including the sweet `no suprises`. The only bad side to this album is it is very depressing and has a dreary feeling. But they do this well and deserve credit.
