Excluding the last two songs - particularly the “rock”’one I think it’s 7, sounded like a demo of a non-descript new wave band - the first 4/5 songs have great grooves

phil is walking along a quiet river path. life is like a river, in some ways, he thinks. mostly made of water. he absent-mindedly starts tapping out a familiar rhythm -- no, no. that time is over now

it was commissioned for a fashion show last year

oh actually from earlier this year
― ufo, Tuesday, 13 July 2021 03:11 (two years ago) link
I thought he was trolling when he played it on that fashion show. It used to be just a slowed down version of the acoustic version of Creep, but he added some synths around the 3 minute mark that almost redeem the “remix”.
Still think he’s trolling with this.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 03:21 (two years ago) link
the synths aren't new to this release, it was like that in the fashion show too
i think they specifically asked for a creep remix as the show was called "creep very" and this is what he came up with
― ufo, Tuesday, 13 July 2021 03:24 (two years ago) link
Yeah you’re probably right. I didn’t really pay attention back then.

High time they released a new album

I'm not really sure where they can go after AMSP, and judging from snippets I've read recently neither are they yet.

― imago, Tuesday, 13 July 2021 10:17 (two years ago) link
actually, they should just go full prog ffs <<<vmic
i was thinking a more down-home approach (with some twists and surprises, naturally) would be a logical step now. They can't have run out of ideas, surely?
― Urbandn hope all ye who enter here (dog latin), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 10:47 (two years ago) link
i don't think they've even started work on a new one yet, but the smile album is probably on its way sometime soonish
― ufo, Tuesday, 13 July 2021 11:19 (two years ago) link
my forbidden opinion is that In Rainbows led them up a creative cul-de-sac that they've been unable to emerge from. rewind to HTTT and relaunch from there, except more fun pls

'Very 2021 Rmx', heh. Definitely a troll.

what about long tunes that aren't proggy like paranoid android? 'these are my twisted words' was an interesting direction for them
― global tetrahedron, Tuesday, 13 July 2021 13:37 (two years ago) link
imago, how is In Rainbows a significant turn/dead end to HTTT? I mean, they're different albums but it's not like they're vastly different
― Urbandn hope all ye who enter here (dog latin), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 15:06 (two years ago) link
"These Are My Twisted Words" is very much in the 'itchy twiggy loops' style of TKOL

I don't know about creative dead end, but the two albums are about as different as Radiohead albums could be - one sprawling, disjointed, a little abrasive, the other focused, concise and dreamy.

Hmmm... The first two songs on In Rainbows would easily fit on HTTT whereas there are loads of dreamy tunes on HTTT that would fit on IR. I don't really hear them as particularly focused through-and-through. They are Radiohead albums with slightly different bents, sure, but I don't understand why IR could be considered a "cul-de-sac", especially since there have been several releases since then.

the smile is their way out.
the band, The Smile, which happened after phil was sacked, along with colin and ed.
it's sort of a joke, but also, that one set was very good and had lots of incredible ideas. that's their way forward. "they" = thom and jonny. they don't need ed there adding his tiddly-doos and his "ahhhhhs". colin is great but who needs bass. and phil, well. he's been sacked. they sounded incredible as a tight 3-piece. i could hear everything jonny was doing so clearly, every little thing. the smile. it's just as bad as "radiohead". it's great. the smile. that's what they're doing now. it's better.

Have been enjoying you so stubbornly sticking to your conspiratorial guns, KM (I'd actually be 100% on board with that posited turn of events, since I was really impressed by the Smile's Glasto video set and think Skinner is a pretty perfect foil for them)

the trick is to fool yourself, too! i mean, to me, that happened
― Z_TBD (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 17:07 (two years ago) link
seriously though, i think they sound great that way, as a 3-piece. i've heard some thom/jonny duets before, of course, including the lovely ones with PT Anderson and a quiet drum machine. those always sounded like what they were - one-offs. with a real drummer (and a really good one, skinner), though, combined with new songs that fit that format? they were LIGHTNING
― Z_TBD (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 17:09 (two years ago) link
(Also would have maybe preferred The Erase as a good bad band name for this new trio, perhaps a passably Spinal Tap stupid-funny thing for them to try and pull, like 'well, the r was just, like, eraaased, man', plus that way it'd fall a bit more closely in line with Atoms For Peace)

Am imagining a scenario where Phil Selway lurks ILX occasionally for Krautrock recs and, in a moment of curiosity, reads this thread and subsequently starts frantically Googling for news sources on his own sacking.😄

So, everything's now on Bandcamp, pretty much. Or at least a lot of it.
https://radiohead.bandcamp.com/music
No singles/B-sides from the first two albums but the expanded OK Computer is up as well as the forthcoming Kid A/Amnesiac reissue with the bonus tracks (but not all the B-sides), plus the King of Limbs remix album and the second disc of In Rainbows.
