Radiohead is among the few bands in contemporary popular music that have combined considerable commercial success with widely recognized artistic significance. In an epoch in which reflection on technological change is paramount in every discipline and field of research, its connection to music stands out as particularly intriguing. It is precisely this capacity to establish a stimulating and creative relationship with technology that has defined Radiohead's unique aesthetics, unlike other pop-rock bands of the same period.
