Radiohead played Melbourne tonight for the first time in a decade with one brand new song and a mix of the albums (1997) Ok Computer to the current album The King of Limbs (2011).
Ten years on the sound remains the same but the technology has improved. Radio can now give the big light show that a decade ago was impossible to achieve.
From the start of ‘Lotus Flower’, the Radiohead show becomes an event. Thom Yorke still very much drives the band but that combination of Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O’Brien and Philip Selway, the always and original Radiohead, creates the unique sound.
