OK Computer — Radiohead

OK Computer remains the most prescient rock album of the 1990s, foretelling a future of digital isolation with layered, haunting soundscapes. Its 1997 release earned near-universal acclaim and has sold over 4.5 million copies worldwide. The album's influence extends far beyond its era, outperforming #2's Revolver in its thematic cohesion and modern relevance. But it's the raw precision of tracks like 'Paranoid Android' – clocking in at 6:23 – that solidifies its legacy as a genre-defining masterpiece.
