Radiohead

In July 2003, when Radiohead performed live at the Eurockéennes de Belfort, they were in the midst of promoting their sixth studio album, "Hail to the Thief," which was released earlier that year. This album marked a significant moment in the band's career as it was a response to the political climate following the events of September 11, showcasing their characteristic experimental sound and politically charged lyrics. During this performance, they opened with "There There," a track that encapsulates the album's themes of turmoil and introspection. Notably, this era also highlighted Radiohead's transition into a band that could seamlessly blend radio-friendly tracks with more avant-garde elements, further solidifying their reputation as innovators in the alternative rock genre. The Belfort concert is a testament to their ability to captivate audiences with emotionally charged performances rooted in contemporary issues.
