20世纪末摇滚乐传世预言
★1998葛莱美最佳另类音乐专辑、Pitchfork九零年代百大专辑第一名。
★探讨人类集体内在世界，将「另类音乐」艺术化的指标专辑。
「摇滚乐在《OK Computer》里完结与重生，20年后，它仍像一则魔幻的预言。」――陈德政
《OK Computer》在1997年发行后，引起全球一片轰动，一举夺下1998葛莱美最佳另类音乐专辑，Pitchfork九零年代百大专辑更列为第一名。这张专辑将当年的「另类音乐」推向更艺术化的层次，谱写出20世纪人类集体的内在世界，如消费主义、社会疏离感，虽然乐团本身只是想再任性地制作一张新专辑，甚至完全没有想到这是否是一张「概念专辑」。
这张专辑产出了〈Paranoid Android〉、〈Karma Police〉、〈No Surprises〉等传世名曲，然而这些歌曲不是长度太长、就是气氛过于晦暗，唱片公司完全不认为具有商业潜力，结果这些歌曲不但成功打入排行榜，每一支在电视台强力放送的MV，也成为音乐与影像结合的经典范本。
二十周年纪念版除了原专辑的12首歌曲重新后制，还包括8首B-side歌曲、3首未发表歌曲。《OK Computer》不只是代表一个「另类音乐」世代，整张专辑唱出了整个世纪人们的心声，即使2017年的今天，人类还是同样地孤寂。
Featuring Remastered OK COMPUTER, B-Sides and Three Never Before Released Tracks: “I Promise,” “Lift,” “Man Of War” Rescued from defunc t formats, prized from dark cupboards and brought to light after two decades in cold storage… OKNOTOK will be issued June 23 on XL Recordings, coinciding (roughly) with the original 1997 release date(s) of Radiohead’s landmark third album OK COMPUTER. OKNOTOK features the original OK COMPUTER twelve track album, eight B-sides, and the Radiohead completist’s dream: “I Promise,” “Lift,” and “Man Of War.” The original studio recordings of these three previously unreleased and long sought after OK COMPUTER era tracks finally receive their first official issue on OKNOTOK. All material on OKNOTOK is newly remastered from the original analogue tapes. Digital formats, double CD, and triple 180g LP versions of the 23 track album will be released widely on June 23rd. OK COMPUTER was originally released on various dates ranging from May to July 1997. Produced by the band and Nigel Godrich, the album is widely cited as one of the greatest works of Radiohead’s--or any artist’s--catalogue and was the first Radiohead record to reach #1 in the UK and to be be nominated for the Album of the Year GRAMMY. The album features singles “Paranoid Android,” “Karma Police,” “Lucky” and “No Surprises.” In 2015, The National Recording Registry selected OK COMPUTER to be preserved in the Library of Congress as a recording that has proven “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”
