Radiohead

In the summer of 2009, Radiohead delivered an electrifying performance at the Reading Festival, where they showcased their single '2+2=5.' This song comes from their critically acclaimed album 'Hail to the Thief,' released in 2003. By this point in their career, Radiohead had firmly established themselves as sonic innovators, blending rock with experimental sounds and introspective lyrics. The band's evolution from mainstream success to a more avant-garde approach is evident in their live shows, and this performance is a testament to their ability to captivate audiences with thought-provoking music. Interestingly, 'Hail to the Thief' was seen by many as a reaction to the political climate of the early 2000s, capturing the band's ongoing engagement with social issues. As they took the stage in Bramham Park, it was clear that Radiohead had not just remained relevant but were also pushing the boundaries of music further than ever.
