“Huh huh huh, music that doesn’t suck?”
Surely, looking back, Thom Yorke would shudder at the actions of the Capitol Records marketing department, which described Radiohead as “Better Than Butt-Head” for this 1993 Spin magazine advertisement promoting the release of the band’s debut album. Modern listeners would also probably be surprised to learn that Radiohead was once “Oxford England’s rowdiest new band.”
Best part: The care of notation for correspondence to Radiohead is “I Wanna Be A Creep.” Please stand up if you wrote that on your envelope seventeen years ago.
