Radiohead's Epic Return: 10 Years Later, Still Spellbinding
22 Nov
Summary
- Radiohead has ended a 10-year drought of new music.
- The band last performed in the UK nearly 100 months ago.
- The concert featured songs spanning their entire discography.
After a 10-year hiatus from new material and 99 months since their last UK concert, Radiohead has made a triumphant return to the stage. Their recent performance at London's O2 Arena was met with immense anticipation, fulfilling fan expectations ignited by their September tour announcement.
The band delivered a comprehensive setlist, drawing from their extensive discography. This included beloved tracks from 'The Bends,' revisited the electronic soundscapes of 'Kid A' (celebrating its 25th anniversary), and featured celestial ballads from 'A Moon Shaped Pool.' Their ability to traverse such a diverse musical landscape remains a testament to their artistry.
While minor timing and tuning issues suggested a slight rustiness, potentially due to the first night in a new venue, these were overshadowed by moments of sheer brilliance. When the band coalesced, the performance was a spell-binding and rapturous experience for the sold-out crowd.
