Summary: Radiohead: no band has so entranced mainstream and alternative music markets like this five-man English rock band from Abingdon, Oxfordshire, formed in 1985. The band consists of Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Phil Selway, and Ed O'Brien, and released their debut single "Creep" in 1992 to international acclaim. With much of the band's private life shrouded in mystery, Radiohead: Homework uncovers the making of this legendary act and what it took for them to become one of the biggest rock acts on the planet. Using interviews with the group and those who've known them along the way, this documentary takes you where the cameras haven't previously preyed to produce an uncensored look at a truly legendary band. Thanks to Thom York's breathtaking vocals and the band's constant pushing of musical boundaries, Radiohead have ensured that their songs will remain strong examples of the most groundbreaking music of our time.
