The discography of Radiohead, an English alternative rock band from Oxfordshire, consists of seven studio albums, 26 singles, 11 extended plays, and two compilations. Radiohead is composed of Thom Yorke (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano, electronics), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar, other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitar, backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass guitar, synthesizers) and Phil Selway (drums, percussion).
The band's first six studio albums, released via EMI, had sold more than twenty-five million copies by 2007.[1] Radiohead independently released their seventh album, In Rainbows (2007), originally as a digital download for which customers could set their own price, and later in physical form to critical and chart success, selling more than three million copies within one year of release.[2] A figure for Radiohead's current total record sales, inclusive of studio albums, singles, compilations, EPs and DVDs, is not firmly established.
Radiohead's work has appeared in a large number of listener polls and critics' lists.[3][4] For example, in 2005 Radiohead were ranked number 73 in Rolling Stone's list of "the greatest artists of all time".[5]
