My favourite music band: Radiohead

From left to right, Johnny, Ed, Thom, Phil and Colin.


 My favourite music band is Radiohead, they are an English alternative rock band from Abigdon, Oxforshire. They are in activity since 1985, but released their debut single in 1992, this single is "Creep" and is one of most noted song of this band. In 1993 (when i was born!), Radiohead relase their debut album, "Pablo Honey", this album was a worldwide and a influenced to different bands later. 

Radiohead is formed for five members. Thom Yorke is the lead singer and play guitar and piano, Johnny Greenwood is the lead guitarist, Colin Greenwood play bass, Phil Selway is the drumer and Ed O'brien is the second guitarist.

This band have eigth album, Pablo Honey (1993), The Bends (1995), OK Computer (1997), Kid A (2000), Amnesiac (2001), Hail to the Thief (2003), In Rainbows (2007) and The King of Limbs (2011)

My favourite album is "OK, Computer" released in 1997, and my favourite song is "Paranoid android". I liked this song, because is a critical to a system alienated and globalized, that makes people look like androids.
I like them, because, generally, their music is a critical to the system, but also some albums contain songs about love and friends, additionally the music is so varied and funny.
