OK Computer (Pt. 2)

The Big Mates discuss technology, Ewoks, the ZX Spectrum, and OK Computer by Radiohead.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their track-by-track deep dive into this blockbuster album by beginning their track-by-track exploration. They offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between.

They discuss the context, recording process, and reception of the songs, as well as exploring the lyrics, themes, and subtext of everything contained within them.

Does this sound like Radiohead? Is Airbag a Christmas song? What is a Mellotron? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?

Our next episode is out on Monday July 4th and will conclude our track-by-track analysis of OK Computer and examine the legacy of this highly praised record.
