people who get mad for people standing at a concert are the worst I'm still proud of myself for smoking a joint in the 700 dollar seats at a stones concert. I had to stay sitting the whole show but man were the aristrocrats mad.

I must shamefully admit I also smoked a joint at a Radiohead concert. It belonged to a stranger though.

Thom Yorke’s solo and side projects, up until Anima, are pretty self indulgent releases. Excuses to tinker with beatmaking and minimal techno, but they feel like releases strictly for the fans (although Eraser does have a few standouts.) After AMSP he has treated his solo efforts and side projects like they’re his main focus now, which is cool. Anima is a good album, it is still very much minimal techno but you can tell he put more work into the “texture” of the album.

He’s just making the type of music he likes? What would it mean for it to not be self-indulgent? Also “a release strictly for the fans” - firstly this is directly contradicting your prior statement about it being self-indulgent, and who is it supposed to be for it not “the fans”? I for one cannot tell that he put any more effort into Anima than he did his other albums.

I don't think it's discount Radiohead or anything like it. The only time Radiohead ever really strayed in that direction were a few tracks on Hail to the Thief and Com Lag.

Some really cool songs (some annoying loops though, like the drum loop in “Bloom”) but somehow that album is less than the sum of its parts. Wish they let that project cook a while longer. The “In The Basement” version feels like the kid who turned in his final draft too late, so he was graded on his first draft.

I think a lot of what people ascribe to Thom getting weird with it is actually Nigel getting weird with it while Thom cheers him on and sings over top of it. Thom is a melody man in the end. Whenever Thom strikes out totally on his own, he's always just playing guitar and piano, maybe a loop pedal thrown in there. It's only when he's collaborating with Nigel that he starts with the skittering beats and loops.

Also Jonny loves him some beats and loops too. I thought I read somewhere it was Jonny and Nigel that were the driving forces behind TKOL. Also Jonny is responsible for studio Videotape.

The REAL Goobusters posted:Yeah but those albums are old now and Radiohead's output since Amnesiac has been much more accessible. What does their age have to do with it? My point was that Thom’s solo stuff is quite similar to Kid A/Amnesiac, and therefore I’m not convinced that The Eraser is any less accessible than Kid A/Amnesiac. The Eraser came out before In Rainbows did. The only other Radiohead released in that span was HTTT. I’m not trying to be pedantic here, I just find it so curious how his albums have this reputation for being “out there” when they’re cut from the same cloth as those landmark albums that everyone knows/loves. Like, you can put Pull/Pulk on a Thom album, or you can put Black Swan on a Radiohead album. They are totally interchangeable aesthetics.

Rageaholic posted:https://twitter.com/consequence/status/1638960576322760714 This is really exciting news and maybe a hot take opinion here, but if I knew nothing about The Smile I could easily be convinced it was Radiohead's follow-up to AMSP, so if the others aren't as keen to make new music as Thom & Jonny are then I hope The Smile keep on as they've been going. They reworked some unreleased Radiohead material for the debut so I'll hold out hope (even if it's unlikely) that we get a studio version of Cut a Hole on the next Smile album because it's an incredible track. Automata 10 Pack posted:King of Limbs is the culmination of Thom Yorke’s beatmaking. Slicing up and looping his bandmate’s playing to create awkward and tense polyrhythms. I agree, there was a lot of great songs from that period released shortly after the album that would have fit perfectly and fleshed it out. Staircase & The Daily Mail were brilliant, for example, and they would not have been out of place on such a sonically diverse album. These Are My Twisted Words should have been on there too. There's a beautiful piano performance of Bloom by Thom, by the way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdmL835q9To

Put yourself in the mind of a non fan or not hardcore fan or people who aren't into these weirder albums from both Radiohead and Thom. A lot of my "normie" friends fav radiohead album is In Rainbows for example. But they would never mess with something like Kid A/Amnesiac or any of the solo albums. If that makes sense. They are still out there and weird despite how big the albums are.

These Are My Twisted Words actually came out a couple of years before King of Limbs towards the end of the In Rainbows tour, but I consider it part of the TKOL era just the same. Thom did a cool 12-string acoustic version at his one solo performance last year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K97TkMUiCuY Volte fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Mar 24, 2023 |

On a Radiohead rankings note the band restocked LPs of all the studio albums but Kid A and Amnesiac on their Bandcamp if you are missing one and want to piss away thirty dollars.

That solo performance is fantastic though, and Thom's ability to take songs it's hard to imagine being performed solo (Twisted Words, Bloom) and not only managing to do so to such a high quality but also make it look effortless, is really impressive. I think it's a shame his playing generally gets overlooked as I think he's one of the most talented guitarists around, and it's wild to me that his voice still sounds so good after all this time.
