1001 Albums Summary

OK Computer by Radiohead

This is one that I've listened to before, of course. There's not much else that can be said about it that hasn't already. Band-defining, genre-defining. Re-invented Radiohead for their foreseeable future and basically created modern progressive rock. It feels sacrilegious to give anything other than a 5/5
