Radiohead is at its best when it's someone else covering Radiohead. OK Computer is a brilliant album and I haven't listened to the original in years. It has songs that Brad Mehldau can turn into 19 minute jazz piano solos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD-b1j_huxY) and that a cello octet can reinterpret (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF99S5Y8mV4). The original has all that complexity held back by generic 1990s alt-rock instrumentation. Radiohead is the most boring Radiohead cover band.
