In what way is this album influential?

Seinfeld Effect

I'm familiar with it, I was alive and listened to it when it released, it didn't sound like anything special to me.

>I can't really think of anything it did that hadn't already been done before
This is not always the measure of influence
OK Computer's influence is due more to its popularity and widespread acclaim than any sort of innovation
It basically popularized a lot of studio techniques that would dominate the following decade, as well as the sort of Internet-age angst that defined 2000s indie rock
It's not that it was extremely ahead-of-its-time, but it essentially spawned a bunch of copycats and laid out the blueprint for the rock music of the coming decade

>>74960578
Yeah, I agree with that I should rephrase, I mean innovate more than influence.

>>74960578
Wt about the strokes

it influenced every single shitty band in the uk like coldplay, muse, etc

>>74960483
Listen to this album then go listen to Coldplay's debut Parachutes and every Muse album.

Nice bait though

Radiohead is the Christopher Nolan of music. It's popular because it makes dumb people feel like they're smart.
