It has been 20 years since Radiohead released "OK Computer." The album was a departure in certain ways for the band, and today, it seems like everyone is writing think pieces about both Radiohead and that record. In the New Yorker, Amanda Petrusich wrote that Radiohead essentially saw the future, and the band's songs reflect the loneliness that comes from isolation -- isolation due to political malaise, celebrity culture, and addiction to technology. We talk to Radiohead fans about these ideas, the music, and more. Our guests: Dave Chisholm , educator, composer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and comic artist Matt Witten , director of the University of Rochester Percussion Ensemble, and faculty member at Rowan University Mona Seghatoleslami , host and producer for Classical 91.5
