Radiohead were formed in Abingdon, Oxfordshire by Thom Yorke (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano, electronic instruments), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar and other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitar and backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass guitar and synthesisers) and Phil Selway (drums and percussion). Initially known as On a Friday, in 1991 they signed with EMI and renamed themselves Radiohead.

Radiohead released their debut studio album Pablo Honey in February 1993. It peaked at number 22 in the United Kingdom, receiving platinum certifications from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album contained the band's debut single "Creep", which became the band's most successful single, becoming a top ten hit in several countries. Radiohead's second studio album, The Bends, was released in March 1995. It peaked at number four in the UK and was certified three-times platinum by the BPI.

OK Computer, Radiohead's third studio album, was released in June 1997. It became their most successful album, peaking at number one in the United Kingdom and Ireland as well as reaching the top ten in several other countries. It received a triple-platinum certification from the BPI and produced the UK top ten hits "Paranoid Android", "Karma Police" and "No Surprises". Kid A followed in October 2000, topping the charts in the UK and becoming the band's first number-one album on the United States Billboard 200. Amnesiac, Radiohead's fifth studio album, was released in June 2001, topping the UK charts and producing successful singles including "Pyramid Song" and "Knives Out".

Radiohead released their seventh studio album In Rainbows in October 2007 as a digital download for which customers could set their own price; a physical release soon followed. The album gained critical and chart success, selling more than three million copies within one year of release. Four singles were released from In Rainbows, including "Nude", the band's first top forty hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 since "Creep". Radiohead self-released their eighth studio album The King of Limbs in February 2011. It peaked at number seven in the UK, ending the group's streak of number-one albums in the country. In April 2016 Radiohead's back catalogue re-appeared on iTunes with "℗ 2016 XL Recordings", as the first confirmed transferral of rights from Warner Music Group to an independent label, as part of WMG's deal with IMPALA.
