So I might be dreadfully behind the 8 ball on this one, but I was just pointed out this site...

Yeah, I'm excited. He and Spencer Krug should have a cage match for electronic pop wankery supremacy.

Oh man, the most annoying member of an utterly inescapable band making a likely uber pretentious album completely devoid of musical proficiency. I cannot wait.




OK, that was sorta harsh.

Indeed, that'd be quite the sight.  My money would be on Krug, but it'd be a close one to call.

  Anyway, I'm really excited about this.  Maybe not as much as I'd be about a new Radiohead album, but still, this is fairly awesome.

  And speaking of awesome and Spencer Krug, I can't wait for the Swan Lake album.  Spencer Krug, Dan Bejar, and Carey Mercer.  I can't wait.

Yowch. Storm Rider no likey likey Radiohead. Haha.

Hey, I'm a fan. But they are certainly not everybody's cup of English Breakfast, blonde, with one leg.

Okay, how about this.  Can we have one - just one - Radiohead-related thread in this music forum that doesn't turn into a string of "Ohmygod Radiohead sucks so hard" posts?  Can we?  Can we do that?  I think we can if we try really, really hard.  'Cause seriously guys, it got old about a year ago.

I just heard about Thom's album now, and I'm a big Radiohead fan.
I need to pay more attention at internets.


Anyway, excited I am.

As far as I'm concerned, this is just a way of postponing an album already a year overdue. So I don't really give a damn.

I was surprised when I read the email he sent out announcing it.

Quote
this is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that i have not told you about.
its called The Eraser.
nigel produced & arranged it .
i wrote and played it.
the elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished & i have been itching to do something like this for ages.
it was fun and quick to do.
inevitably it is more beats & electronics.
but its songs.
stanley did the cover.
yes its a record!
no its not a radiohead record.
as you know the band are now touring and writing new stuff and getting to a good space so i want no crap about me being a traitor or whatever splitting up blah blah...
this was all done with their blessing. and i don't wanna hear that word solo. doesnt sound right.
ok then thats that.

i think its out in july and im pretty certain XL are going to put it out.
love thom


I guess I was expecting him to a bit more literate. And maybe more sour.

Yes, but what does Jack White have to do with anything?

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

I used to hate Radiohead so much. Then I realized me being a dick about them wasn't helping anyone. Then I listened to Kid A and OK Computer and realized that Hail To The Thief is not a good album to judge them by.

I do not dislike radiohead at all.

I just hate Thom Yorke and his pitiful whiny voice.

So you’re saying that you hadn’t heard anything Radiohead at all before 2 years ago? You missed out on such a fun time in contemporary musical history.
Edit: Man I'm slow, directed at Johnny.

I really do love Radiohead, but I can't imagine Thom Yorkes warbling voice being nearly as appealing without the Greenwood brothers and Ed Whatshisface backing him up.

Wait, what? I've never heard of this. Is it a collaboration of all of them at once or just a compilation with them on it?

Honestly (and this is also directed at makeout hobo's comment), Yorke used to be the reason I didn't like Radiohead. But really it's not all that bad. A little warbly and thin now and again but when he wants power and control then he does usually get it.

I'm defending Thom Yorke's voice. This is ironic.
