- Sparkster185, on 10/11/2007, -2/+28O.K. Computer, the best album of the 90's. Nice article.
- N080dy, on 10/11/2007, -3/+22Unfortunately and ironically, the stereogum computers are now not...oh god, I can't go through with such a bad joke.
- dramaDodger, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Is your computer OK?
Sorry, I had to. - Backdrifts, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14Ambition makes you look pretty? Pretty ugly...?

err...i mean when the sites back up :P - jpb0104, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Somebody get a torrent going.
- lardlung, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9I liked ok computer. it was a good album.
these covers.. are.. crap. i mean, wow. they're art student music jerkoffs making ***** covers. puke. - techweenie1, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Granted I did like the Bends, I thought OK Computer was stellar, I think I pretty much listened to it every night my first year of high school...crazy to think that was almost 10 years ago, where does time go?
- ilikevag, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8If you like this listen to Radiodread by the Easy Star All-Stars. It is a dub reggae cover of OK Computer. They also made an album called Dub Side of the Moon, which as you can guess, is a dub reggae version of Darkside of the Moon.
- dicklipkphil, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5they're definitely downloads- there's a zip file and they're all mp3s. right click, save as, etc.
- huckdunsany, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5This is a good case for always having a complete torrent ready to go, huh?
- S1L3NTC, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6If you don't like Radiohead, then why are you commenting in a Radiohead-related post, you tool?
Go back to listening to your ClearChannel top 40 payola rotation and leave us the ***** alone. - jsbarone, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5if Radiohead is overrated, then what's better? I've listened to a lot of music in my time here, and I'm hard pressed to think of many bands better than them.
- theysayjump, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Here it is on MegaUpload if anyone has a problem getting it from StereoGum: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7BO0BDGS
- nickmv, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4I'm gonna have to agree with you there. These are terrible covers....I almost feel like I've let Radiohead down by listening to these
- z3nbrain, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4To really appreciate Ok Computer beyond just the musical awesomeness of it, I really do suggest reading the lyrics while listening. You'd be surprised at how much you learn just from reading the words, as opposed to just listening to them (as Thom's voice can distort a lot of the words, etc).
Also, and excellent reading source if you want to understand the meaning behind the album:
It's called Radiohead Unpackt (a now defunct site): http://web.archive.org/web/20050206103427/http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~adrivera/ - bjs3171, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4great. now, when's a new album coming out for christ's sake?
- Jejune43, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Do you ever wonder who those "similar bands" are influenced by?
- ragnar0kk, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Kid A is hands down my favorite album (followed by Amnesiac). I really like the old stuff too, but Kid A takes you into another world!
- AM6278, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Off with his head, man.
- DopeWeasel, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Ask and you shall receive...

- dcpar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3thank the flying spaghetti monster for S3!
- ragnar0kk, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Dugg for being awesome, more radiohead!
- bendedavis, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I've seen Control compared to OK Computer many times. Bazan is great, I've been listening to Headphones alot lately.
- gootecks, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Sure wanted to like this, but Easy Star All-Stars' Radiodread is just 10000x better.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Awesome covers. Well done Stereogum.
- Renuvian, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3http://www.hypeful.com/2007/06/22/ok-computer-turns-10/
Heres a similar project by Hypeful.

Fixed for accuracy. - diggNewton, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Stereogum's servers have been hit hard from this download - Digg is going to kill it in a few minutes I'm sure.
- Caerbannog, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Overall this is a mixed bag, but it's definitely worth a listen on novelty alone. The one track that really took me by surprise was #7, Fitter Happier--a great (and hilarious) spin on the original.
- simpletim, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I really love David Bazan, and OK Computer. Sadly this is all college radio wankings...
- victorycig, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2...ugly. Ambition makes you look pretty ugly.
- lasko, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I don't even have to listen to it yet to agree with you that david bazan's track is probably the best. Between pedro the lion and his solo stuff, i think it's impossible for him to write a bad song.
- sandig, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Also worth a listen is Dread Zeppelin which as you can guess is Led Zeppelin (and other classic rock) done in the same reggae style.
- cresswga, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I preferred the Bends. I love Karma Police but never really got into the rest of the album.
- grandwazzoo, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2If you're into Radiohead covers, google for Rodeohead by Hard'n Phirm. It's hilarious.
- gr8whitesavage, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2The system is down!!! Please post a mirror.
- DopeWeasel, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Just wait until I get my copy OK.
This server is already getting slower... haven't they heard of torrents? - mntalkase, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1hell yeah. Kid A is by far the best Radiohead album
- electioneering, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1it sounded like Tim Meadows doing fitter happier.
- sandig, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1The version of Subterranean Homesick Alien on this is shocking compared to the original. Radiohead's version is so atmospheric and beautiful, all of which is stripped out in this one and replaced with generic guitar noise.
- marcusbrutus, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Thank you.

- kirtap, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2its down :( :(
any mirrors? - str3ama, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1definately a classic, wish I could access not even getting a 404 or 505 or bandwidth error ...duggmirror didn't cache it either...
