Radiohead LP9 Anticipation, Fangirling and random Cheesecake Thread (Do not read if you hate Radiohead or us)

Yeah Corgan does say he would piss on Radiohead but the way I read it, it wasn't a direct jab at them, more like they were in the way of him pissing on these sort of rankings and he needed an example of guitarists who get ranked over Blackmore when they shouldn't. (His opinion, not mine.)

I do like Identikit but I feel they need to wrap it up a little bit more. This isn't the studio version tho so anything could happen before I give a final verdict on that one.

(How would you mutate Thom anyway? Would you mutate it like a normal T sound, or would you mutate it like it was a "dh" (which is Cornish for the Th sound)?)

((It's Tommas in Cornish so I guess it would mutate Dommas and Dhommas))

(((no, wait - Thommas. Tommas Evrek. Easily amused)))

Yeah, anyway, I've learned not to judge the songs you aren't feeling live until they pop up as studio versions with Nigel noises on them. Haven't we had this conversation upthread? ;-)

Thom has made a nice progression:

Find it funny how 'britpop' he looked circa The Bends. Probably my least favorite look of his, maybe because it reminds me of Chris Martin.

he has THOSE LINES. he has THOSE LINES THAT HAVE RUINED MANY A GOOD WOMAN.

Oh god kill me now.

Those lines that lead down from his abdomen to his groin. Oh god.

::dies::

In case you were wondering how they're called:

aka iliac furrow, aka athlete's girdle, aka Adonis belt.

I know you don't understand, WCC.

He's so damned WEIRD looking.

But in that photo, you can actually see the ring of green around the outside of his eyes, so, um, I approve.

What can I say, I like men who look like E.T.

Yma dewlagas gwerdh dhe Jowanny.

Jowanny Koesgwerdh sounds better as a name than Tommas Evrek to be honest.

Present day Thom is the most WCC-friendly. Haha. Virtually designed for you, tbh.

The most designed-for-me version since Pablo Honey, at least. When I was really, really into eyeliner-wearing boys with bleached hair. Sigh. LOL, the 90s. The slow metamorphasis into Can-loving DDB took a while, but he got there in the end. Phew.

i would pay money to see ritchie blackmore rip up some super fast neoclassical metal solo on "there there"

i want to make a reality show where the original lineup of deep purple and radiohead are forced to swap some members.

i think "the unwritten law" off of house of blue light is the most radiohead sounding deep purple song:

and "the spanish archer" off that album would make a good radiohead song title imo

If you're not going to post fangirl pictures of Yorkes or Greenwoods, I believe you have the wrong Radiohead thread.

Has anyone else heard the rumour that Thom & Ed said the Atoms for Peace album wasnt happening until next year? It was on twitter but I'm scared to look elsewhere to confirm.

Ack. That would suck.

It's all over The Other Place. Thom said Atoms for Peace is coming next year.

How am I going to anticipate for that long?

there are going to be a lot of pictures of thom's belly, aren't there?

And that's a wonderful thing to remind us of, Z S.

HURRAH!!!!

Oh god yes!

On the downside: Flea will probably be involved. But on the upside, as much as I hate hate hate Flea's bass-playing he does make Thom wiggle in a way that reveals large amounts of his belly and even go fhirtless on occasion.

ugh fucking Flea though
why

Is it cool if at some point I photoshop in someone else's belly in place of Thom's belly?

flea is a good bass player and def capable of not doing slap funk workout stuff, you'd never know it was him on the mars volta stuff he's done

i want to make a mash up called "In Rainbow"

Apparently Emika has done a cover of Exit Music for some OK Computer tribute album. I love Emika.

ZS I'm sure you could come up with the most excellent of photoshops regarding Thom's belly.

(I just had a vision of recursive Thom-belly to infinity and it both scared and aroused me.)

I just hate RHCP so much and I hate Flea's bass-playing (perhaps even worse when he's being "tasteful") that it just disappoints me so much that Thom is such a fan. When I found out his girlfriend's favourite band is RHCP I just cried a little, it's just... everything about that band, everything about their fanbase just revolts me and encapsulates everything I hate about music and about American Bro-culture and California and they have been, for my entire life, the music listening of choice for the people who beat me up in high school and assholes who shout out of cars calling me a dyke and just awfulness on every level that goes far beyond their awful tedious horrible music.

I guess I've just accepted long ago that Thom's taste in rock music and mine are never going to overlap, ever and though he seems really quite sensible when it comes to electronic music, I just try to blot that side of his music taste out of my mind.

Apparently Emika has done a cover of Exit Music for some OK Computer tribute album. I love Emika.

!!!!!!! OK this is awesome and I wonder if it's related to SVIIB's cover of Subterranean Homesick Alien?

I also love Emika. I also know that Thom really rates Emika. Why oh why can't he just stick to his decent taste in electronic music, and stay away from RHCP and Flea and the awfulness that entails?

!!!!!!! OK this is awesome and I wonder if it's related to SVIIB's cover of Subterranean Homesick Alien?

It is, it's on the same album.

Where did you read about it? This sounds like a thing of awesomeness I need in my life.

(And maybe it will be out sooner than AfP. And also have no Flea on it.)

Oh! Look what I found by googling!!!

Emika posted on her tumblr about it and then I did some googling.

ANIKA IS ON IT TOO!!!!

::twirls::

AND AUSTRA AS WELL, WTF DID THEY JUST GO THROUGH THE POST-KNIFE THREAD LOOKING FOR BANDS I REALLY LOVE?!?!?!?!??!?!/

Austra doing Paranoid Android?

::head explodes::

I'm just waiting for Ikonika's version of Fitter Happier. That would be the clincher.

Austra doing Paranoia Android sounds *exactly* like you would expect Austra doing Paranoid Android to sound like:

DOES ANYONE SPEAK GERMAN?

HOW THE HELL DO I GET A COPY OF THIS?!?!?/

Is it one of those things where you can only get the CD with a magazine?

Seems like it ;_;

ich spreche ein kleines deutsche.

Flea can do good basslines eg. 'Soul to squeeze'.

Also iirc he will only be involved in a couple of tracks not the whole album.

Yes, my current sexual orientation is Thomosexual. That tongue is fucking obscene.

holy shit re: that OK Computer tribute album

I had this as my cellphone wallpaper for a while. Guess it belongs here:

http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/_/25998897/Esos+Weyes+esosweyes.png

It's also the artwork i have for the nude single in my ipof.

That is so disturbing because that is just so completely *not* what Thom's chest and forearms actually look like.

I've worryingly started to find his widdle widdle T. Rex arms adorably cute.
