I'm pretty surprised that the website didn't fade back in at dawn this morning with some new music/news. Ah well, a little more waiting yet...

It wd be p hilarious if they like created that new company and erased all their shit and then, like, released no music at all and just silently retired

So, they've posted a video of a bird chirping at the crack of dawn on Instagram. Guess the LP actually is called The Dawn Chorus, then.
― Turrican, Tuesday, 3 May 2016 06:50 (eight years ago) link
It's a nice little stop-motion animated chirping bird.
Apparently the otherwise still-blank website sometimes shows the bird video too, but I'm yet to spot it.
― NWOFHM! Overlord (krakow), Tuesday, 3 May 2016 08:46 (eight years ago) link
The website shows the bird video on the hour and half hour - I refreshed at 10am (UK) and it was there.
― NWOFHM! Overlord (krakow), Tuesday, 3 May 2016 09:16 (eight years ago) link
The bird is a teaser for a 'wicker man' sort of video... 'Burn the witch' reference I guess... video will be uploaded probably in the following hours. Jacknife Design is involved https://www.instagram.com/jacknifeprints/
They had previously worked with them for the There There video.

I've not managed to see the rorschach blob image yet myself that's meant to appear at 20 past and 20 to the hour.

I caught it this time, it was actually at 42 minutes past.

Another new video on their website (& elsewhere presumably) with a link to WASTE.

Time for a new thread? Or maybe wait till we know what the thing is called for sure.

We never did a Radiohead ILX Precover, did we?
― Mark G, Tuesday, 3 May 2016 11:34 (eight years ago) link
We would need a tracklist for that.
Although we could just make that up.
― a serious and fascinating fartist (Simon H.), Tuesday, 3 May 2016 11:37 (eight years ago) link
Last time out, it was announced and released within a week.
(Previous time to that, it was basically released without warning)
― Mark G, Tuesday, 3 May 2016 11:41 (eight years ago) link
There's a thread already, been around for years, will find it in a moment...

Radiohead LP9 Anticipation, Fangirling and random Cheesecake Thread (Do not read if you hate Radiohead or us)
I still vote for a new one.

(Previous time to that, it was basically released without warning)I just looked up some old news posts and In Rainbows was announced in a post on their blog 10 days before the album's release.King of Limbs was announced 4 days before the album's release.
― MarkoP, Tuesday, 3 May 2016 12:50 (eight years ago) link
We should expect this one to be announced ~2 days after release then

yorke's voice is good but the song itself is a little plodding
― marcos, Tuesday, 3 May 2016 15:20 (eight years ago) link
anyways i still play in rainbows from time to time, that album is beautiful, king of limbs eh it's okay i guess, it would've been better served with different album art, the cover is complete trash
― marcos, Tuesday, 3 May 2016 15:22 (eight years ago) link
Song sounds nice enough, nothing mindblowing but could be a grower. Great vid.
― the joke should be over once the kid is eaten. (chap), Tuesday, 3 May 2016 15:22 (eight years ago) link
KoL has a good cover! suits the music well.

This sounds a bit more immediate than anything off of TKOL. Bits of it remind me of Climbing Up The Walls. Although yeah, it doesn't seem to have much in the way of dynamics. The line 'low-flying panic attack' is Yorke by numbers. I love the video though. Not sure what I'd think of the song on its own.

yeah
redolent of 'the riverbed' except without a proper development and 1/10 the tension
the chorus is kinda nice-ish
radiohead aren't making interesting music now

xpost to flappy bird: wow no
i like this though, wonder if it'll be like "lotus flower" and it'll slowly develop from sounding interesting if slight to one of my favorite radiohead songs
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Tuesday, 3 May 2016 15:41 (eight years ago) link
it is nowhere near as good as for example 'little by little'

You guys are listening to that album all wrong.
― TARANTINO! (dog latin), Tuesday, 3 May 2016 15:51 (eight years ago) link
The first two tracks on IR should have been consigned to some sort of ltd ed 7" and the rest should have been a really nice mini-album.
really weird opinions about ir itt
"bodysnatchers" is just a great asymmetrical rock jam, every part of it is thrilling imo. imo ir and kol are radiohead becoming a better band i.e. people who respond to each other sensitively and intuitively while playing in a room. that's of course a very rockist interpretive lens but hey it's rock music. kol suffers for not being worked on enough (which is why it's suddenly amazing when you hear the live from the basement versions/the songs they released later)
