There aren’t really any standout tracks from this album. “The King of Limbs ” 2011 is a more dreary take on electronic music with a lot of sampling and repetition of itself from earlier in the songs, which makes them all blend together.

They have sold over thirty million albums worldwide and are one known for hits such as “Creep” “Karma Police” and “Fake Plastic Trees.” These songs are emblematic of the most influential alt-rock and electronic bands of all time, re-defining genres with almost all of their releases. Radiohead is an English alt-rock band formed in 1985 after all of the members met at Abingdon School for boys.
