from the bbc:

World War I veteran Harry Patch will be buried tomorrow. The former plumber, who fought at the battle of Passchendaele in 1917, gave a memorable interview to Today reporter Mike Thomson in 2005.

Thom Yorke, lead singer of the band Radiohead, was moved by the interview to write a tribute to the veteran, inspired by Harry Patch's words.

kind of ambiguous, either way even if they quoted him verbatim, he was speaking in an interview, they then use those words as a lyric.

OK, I've now played the original interview - Patch comes in at 1:47 - and Yorke's lyrics aren't verbatim quotes. He takes some of Patch's words and adds to them.

The Radiohead frontman says his band have no intention to release another album and will instead focus on download-only singles and EPs

Didn't he say something like that a few years back?

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 11 August 2009 11:22 (fourteen years ago) link

Also that's one of the funniest photos of him I've seen, photoshop do-overs plz.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 11 August 2009 11:22 (fourteen years ago) link

I'd rather have semi-regular EPs than an album every four years, but I bet they end up going back on this anyway.

Matt DC, Tuesday, 11 August 2009 11:26 (fourteen years ago) link

No talk of the new track floating around (newer than "Harry Patch," I mean)? Leaked mysteriously, no comment from band or management yet, but it sure as hell sounds like them. It's not bad, actually, I like it better than HP probably.

oh it's called "These Are My Twisted Words" btw.

I love this song.

Turangalila, Thursday, 13 August 2009 06:17 (fourteen years ago) link

Definitely a Radiohead song. Are they trying to channel Sonic Youth? It sounds like a b-side from the bends era.

Moka, Thursday, 13 August 2009 06:20 (fourteen years ago) link

Does that text at the bottom say "Hall of Vice"?

James Mitchell, Thursday, 13 August 2009 06:23 (fourteen years ago) link

"Hall of Ice", even?

James Mitchell, Thursday, 13 August 2009 06:23 (fourteen years ago) link

i like the guitars in 5 over the beat in 4. i think.

Ømår Littel (Jordan), Thursday, 13 August 2009 16:55 (fourteen years ago) link

Ha, style: 'difficult.'

Feels like it should be a few minutes longer.

Simon H., Thursday, 13 August 2009 17:17 (fourteen years ago) link

i think that NO MORE RADIOHEAD ALBUMS EVER OUT OF SPITE thing is a little overcooked; there's some believer interviewer where he says it would fry their brains to do that again right now. and uh huh, seem to recall it was the plan after kid a maybe

how do i know this

yorke says that after every album''aaauuuhhhhh could never imagine getting in the studio again it was such a hellish process'

mark cl, Thursday, 13 August 2009 18:04 (fourteen years ago) link

It says "Wall of Ice," I believe. I guess we can expect more on Monday.

Simon H., Friday, 14 August 2009 09:08 (fourteen years ago) link

wallofice.com redirects to Radiohead's online store. So, that could be something.

Jouster, Friday, 14 August 2009 21:47 (fourteen years ago) link

great song there, something i didn´t expect anymore. him not singing was an atout, definitely.

alex in mainhattan, Friday, 14 August 2009 22:02 (fourteen years ago) link

If you do a whois lookup for wallofice.com, it looks like Radiohead didn't register the domain name. Probably just someone random wanting to feed the rumor mill.

kshighway, Friday, 14 August 2009 22:05 (fourteen years ago) link

he did sing later on, but it was kind of superfluous, wasn't it?

alex in mainhattan, Friday, 14 August 2009 22:07 (fourteen years ago) link

lol this isn't the track that thom yorke is allegedly writing for the Twilight movie right?

Roz, Friday, 14 August 2009 22:17 (fourteen years ago) link

You're right, kshighway. Damn overzealous fans. Twilight thing seems the most likely to me.

Jouster, Saturday, 15 August 2009 00:20 (fourteen years ago) link

I like this new one about 100 times better than the Harry Patch song.

Tom Pagnozzi (Z S), Saturday, 15 August 2009 00:39 (fourteen years ago) link

here is some stuff i found on the internet, so how much is true is anyone's guess:

It appears that Radiohead are even more sneaky and ingenious than we thought. Based on the MP3 that surfaced earlier this week, the Internet has been swarming with forethought into the possibility of a new Radiohead EP, Wall of Ice, dropping next week.

The .NFO file that was packaged with the original torrent for "These Are My Twisted Words" included a bunch of cryptic information, much of which suggested the EP would be out on Monday (August 18). However, it was impossible to know how legitimate the information was.

Then, the good folks at The Quietus left us kicking ourselves when they cracked the code and entered "http://www.wallofice.com"; into their web browser. The URL leads to the same online store where users could buy In Rainbows with the pay-what-you-want model. Seriously, try it out.

Also worth noting is that the title Wall of Ice is likely taken from the popular web-comic XKCD, which shows an unstoppable wall of ice set to demolish the corporate interests of the music industry. So don't be surprised when Chris Martin, following his mentors, drops a new Coldplay release based on Dinosaur Comics next year.

If all goes as planned, the Wall of Ice EP could be out this Monday, so keep those eyes peeled!

Bee OK, Saturday, 15 August 2009 01:54 (fourteen years ago) link

so here is what pitchfork is saying, either way we have new Radiohead,YEAH!:

Friday, August 14

So what's the deal with this (alleged) new song? Radiohead Rumor Mill Steaming Ahead, Threatening to Devour Entire Internet

A couple days have passed since a (possibly) new Radiohead song (seemingly) titled "These Are My Twisted Words" popped up on the message board of the Radiohead fan site At Ease (apparently via torrent tracker site what.cd), but we still have no official word on the track.

Of course, that's not stopping obsessives from hitting message boards and blogs with their own theories, some more believable than others. Panic, vomit, and some clues as to what this new song means for the future of the planet, after the jump:

The most popular (and optimistic) theory at the moment puts forth the idea that "Twisted Words" is from a new Radiohead EP called Wall of Ice that will hit the internet super hard on Monday. (Via At Ease.) According to an anonymous tipster, the original leaked track was bundled with a geeked-out info file (check it out here) filled with ASCII art, nonsensical jargon, and a possible release date of August 17. The message ends with the words "Wall of Ice" made up of all "@" symbols. This could be a reference to an anti-entertainment industry cartoon that likened the digital revolution to an unstoppable wall of ice set to crush any and all corporate interests (via CNET). Or it could not be.

While the whole "fuck the man" wall of ice thing seems a bit on-the-nose for Radiohead, the new EP theory is supported by recent cryptic quotes from members of the band, too. In a recent Believer interview, Thom Yorke said, "We've got this great idea for putting things out but I can't tell you what it is, because someone will rip it off."

And in a story from today's Australian, guitarist Jonny Greenwood floated this nugget: "Traditionally we'd be looking for 10 or 11 songs and putting them together, but that doesn't feel as natural as it used to, so I don't know what we'll do. Maybe we'll find four songs that work together and we'll call that a release. I don't know."

We do know the band were in their studio with producer Nigel Godrich earlier this year. And they're clearly not against springing new music on an unsuspecting public. Monday is only a weekend away, folks.

Another theory pushes the notion that "Twisted Words" might be the rumored-about Thom Yorke track written for the new Twilight movie, New Moon, and leaked by an overzealous fan associated with the movie. An admirably nerdy MTV report even tells us that the song's lyrical themes seemingly jive with the themes of New Moon. So, like so many other things nowadays, this could all just be much ado about Twilight.

No matter what the outcome, we have to imagine the playfully mysterious group are tickled by the online hubbub-- somewhere, Thom Yorke is refreshing his RSS and laughing. But the deafening churn of the rumor mill covers up one tiny detail: If this really is a new Radiohead song ushering in some sort of new era for the band, isn't the song itself a little-- dare I say-- slight?

Bee OK, Saturday, 15 August 2009 02:01 (fourteen years ago) link

scottpl, if you're reading this, PLEASE have Dombal put some note next to this item in your news post: "UPDATE: Ooh! If you go to wallofice.com, it directs you to Radiohead's online store! (Thanks to Peter James Dering for the tip!)"

As I said:

If you do a whois lookup for wallofice.com, it looks like Radiohead didn't register the domain name. Probably just someone random wanting to feed the rumor mill.

i got this song a couple of days ago from motel de moka. and i asked myself is this an old song i don't know or an old unreleased song? in any case it is a great song. it sounds a little bit like radar love in the beginning but then it becomes quite cosmic-spacey in a relaxed way. not so damn depressive and sad as usual. thom yorke's voice which comes in pretty late on the other hand sounds almost more tired than before.

alex in mainhattan, Monday, 17 August 2009 12:15 (fourteen years ago) link

what's your point, djh? could you elaborate without linking somewhere else? have you got something to say?

The domain belongs to a fan who has nothing to do with the band.

some dude, Monday, 17 August 2009 20:24 (fourteen years ago) link

...the fan also wrote that message, as he still owns the domain and Radiohead haven't recently acquired hacking skills.

Melissa W, Monday, 17 August 2009 20:26 (fourteen years ago) link

that was what i meant -- what was the point of the fan making the site other than to lead people to jump to the conclusion they're now scolding them for?

Quite like it. It reminds me of Dollars & Cents.

chap, Monday, 17 August 2009 20:33 (fourteen years ago) link

Jonny didn't even address the leak in his post announcing the release of the new single.

I have a hard time believing that someone on the band's team would waste their time making it so that when wallofice.com tried to redirect to the Waste store there'd be a dumb, pissy message there instead.
