Radiohead Discussion Thread Part II

[martha]

The cover is creepy. Phil is the best drummer evar.

 

[PhilsFan]

The second half of A Wolf at the Door is one of my favorite drum pieces ever.

 

[cobl04]

i can hardly wait for the day LMJ decides he's had enough of Bono's shit and puts out his own album.

Taylor Hawkins, the Foo Fighters drummer

my brother keeps insisting i listen to that, but he likes a lot of shit music. is it any good?

 

[PhilsFan]

I'm not sure Larry has any skills aside from drumming and grimacing.

 

[cobl04]

yeah that's what i was getting at

i listened to Kid A to and from work today... it's really a very good album indeed.

 

[lazarus]

He's better at the grimacing.

 

[nielsgov]

I just want a new Radiohead album.

So Cuttooth was on the 'pod this afternoon as I was flying home from Denver after NOT seeing U2 there.

The song had just started and I happened to look out the window. I could see the Colorado River through Marble Canyon, just as the Little Colorado comes in to start the Grand Canyon. The entire Grand Canyon was all right there for me to see, close enough to touch, but 35,000 feet down, and all the while Cuttooth was playing in my ears. It was a lovely gift.

I knew the Canyon was going to be on my side, but I could only hope the clouds would clear away. They did, and oh my Lord, was it incredible.

 

[djerdap]

Cuttooth is their best B-side, and they have plenty of amazing B-sides.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Gagging Order is my favorite of their B-sides. That guitar is so beautiful and so un-Radiohead. And then Thom comes in and it becomes very Radiohead. Strangely.

Damn, I'm going to have to go listen to that right now.

This is beyond true. It's one of the most heartbreaking things I've listened to, in fact, it's what I listen to when I am also heartbroken. Fun stuff.

 

[FitzChivalry]

As you all know, I've always preferred the studio version of 'Fog' as my favorite RH b-side. To me, it's just as emotional as 'Gagging Order', but so Radiohead in a creepy, atmospheric, ethereal way.

'Gagging Order' is probably my 2nd fave though.


Oh, and Martha. I had a similar experience like that in a plane with the gleaming ocean, white, fluffy clouds and Underworld's 'Cups (Salt City Orchestra remix)'.

 

[lazarus]

Gagging Order FTW.

And Underworld's Cups FTW as well, though I haven't heard that remix.

 

[the tourist]

I think my favourite Radiohead b-side is Lewis Mistreated. Or maybe Permanent Daylight.

Some new Radiohead album news:

Ed O’Brien: New Radiohead album may be out “sometime this year” ? Consequence of Sound

“I’m really excited… I feel like this is the best record we ever made. It really is genuinely exciting. It’s very different from what we did last time.”

Time to get excited everyone.

 

[joyfulgirl]

“Ideally, it’d be great if it came out sometime this year. It’s got to. I hope so,” O’Brien answered

There have also been rumors that the album may feature some orchestral elements.

Yes, please.

 

[Lancemc]

Excellent news.

Also, guess which album I'm finally coming around to.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Heh.

Indeed.

And btw, does anyone here have the promo cd Radiohead... Before Computers ? I've been looking for this but it's kinda hard to find outside selling sites that are pricing it for a really expensive price.

 

[U2Fanatic4ever]

x infinity!! Can't wait to hear this new album which means A TOUR!!!

 

[PhilsFan]

Excellent news.

I don't think you'll ever live that one down. In Lamebows is too much of a meme now.

 

[Lancemc]

I'm proud of it still, in a sad kind of way. I'll just love this album in secret then, so all can remain unchanged.

You're a fucking snob, Lance.

 

[Lancemc]

You're a fucking snob, Lance.

Thank you.

 

[Lancemc]

'Nude' still sucks though.

 

[LMP]

Stop it.

The album cut of "Videotape" still does nothing for me. It's officially the third thing I like in basements, behind arcade games and deep wells to fit my victims.

 

[Lancemc]

Nou.

 

[PhilsFan]

The secret's out: the 'B' in YLB actually stands for Bundy.

 

[purpleoscar]

I feel like this is the best record we ever made.

That would have to be better than Ok Computer.

No need to add, Sicy.
