Easy Star All-Stars
Together again at last: the songs of Radiohead, the sounds of reggae and dub. I can't say there was a glaring need for this album, but so what? It works. I missed out on the similar Dark Side of the Moon cover album, but on Radiodread, the Easy Star All-Stars (Easy Star Records being the culprits behind this release) take the imminently cheerful tunes from OK Computer and give them a reverb-soaked workout.
Easy Star All-Stars - Airbag (feat. Horace Andy)
Easy Star All-Stars - Paranoid Android (feat. Kirsty Rock)
Easy Star All-Stars - Climbing Up The Walls (feat. Tamar-kali)
Recently on Comfort Radio:
Princess Superstar - Welcome To My World
Death From Above 1979 - Black History Month (Josh Homme Remix)
Garmarna - Euchari (Eucharius)

Probably the only paranoid android cover I've heard that works.

Dub Side of the Moon is not to be missed if y'all are at all a Floyd &/or dub fan (especially their cover of "Money" - f*n brilliant)
truly it's all enough to make you think that the Easy Stars were the originators & Floyd the cover-come-lately's
