Oh noes, Radiohead is problematic now.

I think his comments about the dangers of division were pretty spot-on, actually. The closing paragraph hits the nail on the head.

If they think there should be a dialog then they should probably start by offering their actual opinion on the situation instead of taking personal offense that people would dare ask them what their opinion is

Part of what they're taking offense to is that these jackasses did this instead of trying to talk to them about this personally.

You're saying the problem is that the NO APARTHEID banners at his shows didn't have a question mark on the end? They're well aware of the substantial questions at hand and have deliberately still not addressed them

"It's deeply distressing that they chose to, rather than engage with us personally, throw poo poo at us in public" I don't know how that's unclear.

Thom may be right, but he's also being super naive.

You're right, he's offended that a few of his friends didn't call him about it, and that's fine I guess. I was reading it in part about his relationship with the band's fans, but that's not actually what's concerning him at all.

Thom is a multi millionaire rockstar who has been famous and wealthy since his early 20s. That's why he, as a grown-rear end 50 year old man, can be quoted saying things like:quote:His hatred of cars was tied into his general disdain for a society where, he once said, "people get up too early to leave houses where they don't want to live, to drive to jobs where they don't want to be, in one of the most dangerous forms of transport on Earth. I've never gotten used to that."

Maybe this whole thing would be resolved if we just introduce Colin Greenwood to a nice Palestinian girl

The song's nice enough. The video's great though. I'm surprised to see them bothering to produce a video considering they barely ever do anymore.

Should we expect rich, famous, possibly drug-addled, developmentally arrested rock stars to be paragons of virtue and champions of social and political justice? Yes.

Some very lovely quality leaks of Man O War and Lift are going around. Both songs are quite disappointing. They sound exactly like live version with little innovation in the studio outside of some synth strings. Overall I'd give all 3 previously unreleased songs 6/10 or so. Really actually hoping these are really well done fakes. AARO fucked around with this message at 00:37 on Jun 19, 2017 |

Actually, there is a guy who use to create "studio" versions of unreleased songs such as Follow Me Around, Morning Mr. Magpie, and Big Boots. And he use to do it by taking live versions of the songs and overlaying his own instrumentation so... Maybe they're just his?

They're still way ahead of Nine Inch Nails; we NIN fans are still waiting for the vinyls we ordered in December.

I miss the "what a nasty surprise" lyric. And I seem to recall the early version also had a glockenspiel.

The hook reminds me a lot of "Just." I dunno; I think it would've been out of place on OKC, but that's the case for a lot of the B-sides for me, too

lelandjs posted:I don't know if I'm happy or disappointed that it's exactly what I expected it to sound like. Neither of these songs are really all that different from how they were performed live at the time, and I suspect Lift will be more of the same. Having said that, there's a reason Big Boots and Lift have been fan favorites for 20 years, and the Big Boots video captures it perfectly. It actually makes me a little angry the band didn't think this was good enough for release in 98, because it's such a solid performance. I might've missed it, but I didn't see anyone post a link to the video they also did for I Promise. It's peak Radiohead.
