Iconoclastic British rock quintet Radiohead will soon be the subject of a greatest hits package. If that seems like a very un-Radiohead-like thing to do, that's because it is. In truth, the band's former label, Capitol/EMI, is behind the release, which happens to coincide with a Radiohead world tour. The band seems less than thrilled. As guitarist Ed O'Brien recently said during a radio interview with Canada's "The Strombo Show," "we won't be promoting that, obviously."

EMI still owns the band's recorded material prior to the latest, "In Rainbows."

There are track listings for the best-of floating around the Internet, but we can come up with our own. Fans already have the albums, anyway, so just craft your own mix CD. It's sure to be better than EMI's version.

Here are our picks for the 10 must-have Radiohead tracks — and yes, the omission of "Creep" is deliberate. Haven't we heard that song enough for one lifetime? You don't have to stop at 10 (you can include "Creep" that way), but we're partial to those nice round numbers:

1. "Paranoid Android"

2. "Just"

3. "The National Anthem"

4. "Everything in Its Right Place"

5. "Karma Police"

6. "No Surprises"

7. "Fake Plastic Trees"

8. "My Iron Lung"

9. "2+2 = 5 (The Lukewarm)"

10. "Pyramid Song"
