Featured Rock Albums
1993
Radiohead
– Pablo Honey (UK)
Pablo Honey, the debut album from Radiohead, serves as the initial spark in what would become one of the most celebrated careers in modern music. The album captures the raw energy and angst of the early ’90s alternative rock scene, while hinting at the innovation and depth the band would later explore. Its sound is rooted in grunge and guitar-driven rock, with an undercurrent of emotional vulnerability that sets it apart from many contemporaries.
