Radiohead

In June 1995, Radiohead performed "Fake Plastic Trees" in an acoustic set at the LIQUIDROOM in Tokyo, just a month after releasing their critically acclaimed second album, "The Bends." This album marked a significant turning point for the band, showcasing their evolving sound and deeper lyrical themes, which resonated with fans and critics alike. Notably, "The Bends" featured hits like "High and Dry" and "Fake Plastic Trees," the latter of which is a poignant exploration of existential angst.

The Tokyo concert captured a raw, intimate moment, highlighting the band's ability to connect on a personal level with their audience even in a public setting.
