Reviews
Rose (Confronting Technopoly, 2017), a professor of media studies, considers Radiohead not just an influential English electronic rock outfit but "an important resource for assisting us in the social and psychic navigation of our new technological age." Such lofty regard is typical throughout this mostly academic appreciation of the 34-year-old band helmed by enigmatic frontman Thom Yorke and composer Jonny Greenwood. The author traces Radiohead's long, multifaceted history in the studio and out, charting their early success with the hit single "Creep" and dissecting the seminal 1997 album OK Computer, while contrasting the making of later albums like Kid A, Hail to the Thief, and In Rainbows with the band's political and social activism. . . . it's an ambitious but compact treatise, exploring how Radiohead's esoteric and highly regarded oeuvre aligns with and interrogates the challenges of modernity., "When English rock band Radiohead returned to the studio in 1996 for their third album, lead singer and dominant songwriter Thom Yorke was writing music to deal with his claustrophobic feelings from endless touring. The result was OK Computer, which perfectly summed up pre-millennium jitters in 12 prescient songs about technology and alienation. Over the next two decades, Radiohead continued to use their music and platform as public figures to comment on political, social justice, and environmental issues. Rose (Radiohead and the Global Movement for Change; Roger Waters and Pink Floyd) presents a comprehensive analysis of the band's message by dissecting the individual songs and artwork from all of their albums to date, revealing a group of musicians who both feared their global influence and embraced it. VERDICT Radiohead fans and those interested in media studies will find revelations in Rose's engrossing insights." -- Library Journal "Rose (Confronting Technopoly, 2017), a professor of media studies, considers Radiohead not just an influential English electronic rock outfit but "an important resource for assisting us in the social and psychic navigation of our new technological age."

Rose elegantly and eloquently illuminates what Radiohead's music, and Thom Yorke's lyrics, offer to us as (in the words of Kenneth Burke) a counter-statement against the life of these times in which we live." --Thom Gencarelli, Manhattan College, Phil Rose brilliantly walks us through the vibrant vision of Radiohead.

Synopsis
Since Radiohead's formation in the mid-1980s, the band has celebrated three decades of creative collaboration and achieved critical acclaim across music genres as cultural icons. Recognized not only for their musical talent and daring experimentation, Radiohead is also known for its work's engagement with cultural and political issues. Phil Rose dissects Radiohead's entire catalog to reveal how the music directs our attention toward themes like cyber technology, the environment, terrorism, and the inevitability of the apocalypse. With each new album, Radiohead has sought to reinvent its sound and position in the music industry. Abandoning traditional distribution for their 2007 In Rainbows album, Radiohead experimented with a pay-what-you-want model that embraced the crowd-sourced commerce that has continued to gain prominence in modern consumer culture. In addition to chronicling the band members' various solo projects, Rose outlines Radiohead's political and civic activism. As the most up-to-date and thorough discussion of this landmark body of musical multimedia, Radiohead: Music for a Global Future recounts the band's triumphs and tragedies along with their role at the forefront of adaptation both to a changing music industry and a rapidly changing world., Phil Rose delves into Radiohead's work and its cultural context, drawing out how the music addresses political, environmental, and social crises. This book reveals the true depth and musical genius that has solidified Radiohead's place in rock history and pop culture.
