RADIOHEAD – pablo honey – VINYL LP (black)

Radiohead’s debut album Pablo Honey is a promising collection that blends U2’s anthemic rock with long, atmospheric instrumental passages and an enthralling triple- guitar attack that is alternately gentle and bracingly noisy. The group has difficulty writing a set of songs that are as compelling as their sound, but when they do hit the mark — such as on « Anyone Can Play Guitar, » « Blow Out, » and the self-loathing breakthrough single Creep — the band achieves a rare power that is both visceral and intelligent.
