The B-side "India Rubber Soul" was a stark, dissonant acoustic piece that contrasted sharply with the anthemic "Fake Plastic Trees." It highlighted the band's willingness to explore darker, more challenging sonic textures.
- "Fake Plastic Trees" was released as a single in the UK on May 15, 1995, backed with the non-album track "India Rubber Soul."
- Both tracks were recorded during the sessions for Radiohead's second album, The Bends, at RAK Studios, Rakim, and Abbey Road Studios in London. The album was produced by John Leckie.
- While "Fake Plastic Trees" became a fan favorite and a staple of live shows, "India Rubber Soul" remained an obscure but notable artifact of the band's creative process during this period.
Radiohead is an art rock band from Abingdon, Oxfordshire, UK, known for their experimental sound and introspective lyrics. In 1995, they were establishing their international profile following the success of their debut album Pablo Honey.
