The so called Radiohead In Rainbows model has been praised, criticized, analyzed, turned over and regurgitated so many times I’ve lost count myself. Their act of musical revolt against the major labels and conventionality for that matter, has lead to a wave of enlightenment among similar bands, who’ve since then released albums under the same [...]
When one of my favorite DJs, Diplo, and one of my favorite contemporary rock bands, Radiohead, mix together, there can only be goodness getting out of the whole business. Diplo first posted a remix of Reckoner a while back, for the Radiohead Remix contest, now he just posted a final version of the remix down [...]
I’m really late with this, but I’ve been away in the Carpathian mountains this weekend for some serious hiking and had no chance to see it, let alone post it. Anyway, last Thursday Radiohead played its last gig off their ginormous In Rainbows tour in Santa Barbara, CA. The band ended the tour with an [...]
While on tour, playing in Auburn, WA, Radiohead’s Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood moved close to each other and started playing a “Faust Arp” duet, like they always do shows, however… this time Thom forget the lyrics. Anyway, after a series of jokes and ramblings around the matter, to escape this somewhat embarrassing moment, the [...]
I was really impressed and ecstatic about the new Radiohead video, for In Rainbows slow jam “House Of Cards,” when I first talk about it last week. Now, finally, the video has surfaced on the web (well actually it’s been on for a few good days now, but I’ve been away and stuff like that) [...]
[tag]Radiohead[/tag] has a long history of forgetting conventions and experiencing new things. So there’s virtually little things that could surprise us coming from them. Or so we thought…. Apparently, it seems the video for their latest single, House of Cards, has been filmed projected in a whole different manner, with the help of two ultra-high [...]
It seems the people behind [tag]U2[/tag] aren’t too fond of the Radiohead model of selling their latest album, In Rainbows. Specifically, U2’s manager Paul McGuinness confessed recently that he feels that Radiohead’s pay-what-you-want policy “backfired.” He also assured everybody that in no way U2’s upcoming album, that will probably see the light of day sometime [...]
The New York post-punk revivalist trio, Liars, dazzled us with their latest full length, self-titled album, from last year. Now Angus Andrew and co. are back with a new release, this time with a digital EP, in the form of the “Freak Out EP,” available on Mute July 8, 2008. Besides the track titled Freak [...]
Well it’s been a while since we said something about Radiohead, but they’re back. Meet the most impressive band of the past year, the guys who came back from nothing - and guess what; now, they’re probably also the gloomiest band of the planet.
The breakthrough for Radiohead on ‘Reckoner’ a song that underwent multiple incarnations [...]
Watch out people, it’s hypocrisy time! At least that’s what my spider sense tells me. When I first read that Radiohead were going green, I thought it’s great stuff. When I read further what going green means for them… my jaw dropped like Britney Spears’ image.
They’ve decided not to travel to the US for a [...]
