Oh please.

They were a generic guitar band who wrote slightly better songs than most of the britpop dross that surrounded them at the time who then decided to rip off anything made by Warp records after they got bored of making generic guitar music. Hell even Noel & Liam Gallagher were doing that with Death In Vegas & The Chemical Brothers at the same time.
Virtually every big name British rock band in the mid 90s went through a phase of experimenting with electronic or dance music and it wasn't Radiohead who started that trend. It was Primal Scream.
