Plastic was included in the Belgian magazine, Humo, a long with some
other Radiohead sites in December 1999.
Translation:
"The way Radiohead adjusted the laws of rock music on Ok Computer,
that way Grant Gee apparently adjusted the rules of the 'rockumentary'.
On account of his portrait of Radiohead (Meeting People Is Easy),
the press reports exult about 'a schizophrenic montage'. Fortunately
there is music: fragments of concerts, clips and demo's. ARTE airs
this rockumentary on Saturdaynight. Radiohead-sites to keep you warm:
The Official Site (bizarre), The Panic Button, Green Plastic and Follow
Me Around." Thanks to Leen Smet |

Ultimate Bulletin Board "Site of the Week".
Every once in a while, I come across a site that really blows my socks
off. This is one of them. Green Plastic Radiohead is an absolute tour
de force of a fan site, with smashing design, easy navigation, and
a hip but not obnoxious sensibility.
Memo to Radiohead
.sign
this webmaster on as your official designer now!!! The content is
spiffy, too; theres band info, tour dates, lyrics, photos, shopping
resources, a guide to Oxford (where the band originated), and in addition
to the usual Discography
a "gigography," a compilation
of every gig the band has ever played! Of course, there is also a
spanking new UBB forum, so feel free to drop by and say hello.

With Radiohead's recent release, Kid A, and their upcoming album Amnesiac,
the buzz on the band is frantic. Because of this, all the major Radiohead
sites are working overtime to keep there content fresh, and their
news updated. Since they are all basically getting the same news,
greenplastic separates itself from the crowd by its wonderful interface
and original artwork. The kid who keeps this thing up (solo) must
have no trace of a social life whatsoever... bad for him, good for
us, enjoy. |
