Radiohead

[Liquid football]

Have you heard The Creep ? That is the only good tune they've done and that's only because Sting wrote it.

Pissing on other people's chips is just not cricket, old boy. Start a "Radiohead are shite thread" if you feel so strongly about it.

[Liquid football]

i love Radiohead actually. That was genius by me there.

I presume that's a quote as it's not particularly correct in any way.

Riiiight. Stick to dancing Wenger on the *F, that was funny.

This is one of those things where you need to be in the room with the person. I was joking.

Why would I need that? I knooowwwwww

[Liquid football]

Seriously though, i was joking Thants.

 

Love Sting i do.

[Stu Monty]

I'd agree with that word for word if they weren't absolute dogshite.

 

Are you going to use your indoor voice or am I going to have to send you to your room?

What's that about mate ? New album should be due soon.

[setreal]

Dunno, Frank. Every few weeks I check the "News on LP9" thread on the Mortigi Tempo forum and that photo was posted recently, thought it looks class.

 

I also read a glimpse of an interview where Thom was asked about the status of the new album and he said he'd get into trouble if he gave an answer.

 

He also said something like "Youtube are stealing art and are a bit like the Nazis in that respect", which I hope was a misrepresentation of what he said - however, it reminded me of why I tend to never read any interviews, because it will only make me lose respect for people I genuinely like.

[bossy]

He kind of has a point, although he's over egging it a bit. Google and YouTube are colluding with digital aggregators such as the Orchard to trawl music videos and claim the copyright of many independent artists. Getting them to give up the claim is really difficult and frustrating almost like dealing with a computer virus. Just happened to a mate's music and he's being told they'll allow him to post his video but he doesn't own the copyright. There are thousands of such cases.

[setreal]

Oh yeah, I dislike Google in a lot of ways and they are thieving basterds no doubt - be it via Youtube, Gmail or whatever. But Nazi comparisons never fly for me. Of course it may be a misrepresentation for what its worth.

[Kant]

Good to see Fields of the Nephilim getting a bit of work.

[Total Longo]

Jonny Greenwood must be tired, bless him.

Last year we were asked to write a theme tune for the Bond movie Spectre.
Yes we were. It didn’t work out, but became something of our own, which we love very much.
As the year closes we thought you might like to hear it.
Merry Christmas. May the force be with you.

 

[setreal]

Hmm.

Radiohead have reportedly shot a new music video in Los Angeles with There Will Be Blood director Paul Thomas Anderson.

The band are expected to release their ninth album shortly, having recently announced a UK tour alongside a series of summer festival dates. The upcoming LP will be the follow-up to 2011's 'The King of Limbs'.

As Fact reports, in a new episode of podcast For Crying Out Loud, author and stand-up Stefanie Wilder-Taylor reveals how Anderson filmed part of the alleged new Radiohead clip in her house.

Wilder-Taylor explains: "Oh, this happened, I forgot to tell you! So, I’m at home and there’s a knock at the door… there’s a guy with a clipboard. I come to the door with a scowl on my face and the guy says, ‘Hey, we’re in the neighbourhood, we’re going to be shooting a music video.’ So now, I’m thinking you’re basically telling me – what happens a lot in my neighbourhood, because it’s a very typical suburban looking neighbourhood – I’m gonna be inconvenienced."

"Then the guy goes – ‘it’s Radiohead!’ I can’t tell you anything about it. I’m guessing that’s the non-disclosure part. Between us girls, Radiohead – I don’t give a shit, I don’t get it. I’ve heard one song I don’t care about – ‘Creep’. Yeah, you’re a creep and a loser and you’re putting me to sleep."

She continues: "Here’s the cool part. Then the next day, the guy goes, I wanna bring the director by your house… this guy comes in, says 'Hey, this is the director, Paul'… really normal looking guy. Then I say, 'Hey, you look kind of familiar… Have we met?' Do you make anything apart from music videos?... I was like, ‘Oh shit!'”

A press representative for Radiohead have offered no comment on the reports.

Anderson has previously worked with the band's guitarist Jonny Greenwood on the soundtracks for his films There Will Be Blood, The Master and Inherent Vice.

The band's long-time visual collaborator Stanley Donwood recently confirmed that he has heard the band's new album, although it is not yet finished, describing the LP as "a work of art".

Radiohead will play the following headline dates:

Amsterdam, Heineken Music Hall (May 20-21)
Paris, Le Zenith (May 23-24)
London, Roundhouse (May 26-28)
New York, Madison Square Garden (July 26-27)
Los Angeles, Shrine Auditorium (August 4, 8)
Mexico City, Palacio De Los Deportes (October 3-4)

Can't wait to hear this, the acoustic songs Thom Yorke played in France recently were excellent. 

 

On the other hand I felt that Spectre song was a bit nondescript.

On it's way. This is the best bit of news I've had in a while.

[Frankenhooker]

Didn't they erase all their social media posts and put up a blank page on the site ?

 

Now they're seemingly back online I reckon something, be that a single or an album, will be out by the end of the week.

Yes. I reckon the bird and the witch bits will be part of a video. The song title may or may not be "Burn the Witch", the album may or may not be called "Dawn Chorus"
