Radiohead - good?

[Johnny Vodka]

I bought AMOK and Push the Sky Away on vinyl and limited edition CD this week

I'm Spotifying it before buying, because I wasn't that mad on The Eraser (bar the title track).

Incidentally, I love the way Sasha works The Eraser into Involver 2. Wish this was a mix you could get separately.

Moments of genius surrounded by endless seas of blandness

Weirdly my fave tune I've discovered this week is a Huntley breakcore radiohead remix

 

[girasol]

Anyone tried the Polyfauna app yet? It just reminds me of a k-hole... Kept me entertained for a while this evening. At one point I was physically going around in circles chasing the red dot.

In Rainbows was their last album I listened too. Still do sometimes.

Great response.

They're still shit though.

That version of Lift is pretty fucking amazing

 

[friedaweed]

I thought I was the only one left using minidisc Poor Thom. I've had a lot of shit for owning mine over the years now he's gonna know how it feels

"This is what you'll get when you mess with us."

Had a bit of a skip through earlier and there's a really good 'True Love Waits' on it. I'll wait for someone else to do the highlights before I go any further though. There's 18 hours of it!

Best one I've heard. Absolute fucking belter.

Shame they didn’t split it down into individual songs rather than one track per disk.

If the weather's crap this weekend I'll see how much I get through. Just had a go at one of the later ones (Disc 15 I think) and they must've been near to completion by then because 'Let Down' is the one off the finished record, I think. It doesn't fade out as quick but that's it. Imo anyway. We need Firky to confirm really of course. He knows his stuff on this.

I'm about 2 hrs in, It's like they turned up and rehearse in yer kitchen.

Thanks Radiohead

Radiohead: MiniDiscs (Hacked) review – blueprints for the best album of the 90s

A few tracks have been picked out here as worth listening to, so I'll probably use that as a starting point.

 

[Smokeandsteam]

Um, this seems like a really good response to the hacker but how do you listen to it? Sorry if that’s a really dumb question

 

[Chilli.s]

It's free to listen to it streamed but payment if you want a high quality download.

Cheers. Just listening to it now.

It’s on Radiohead’s bandcamp page

MINIDISCS [HACKED], by Radiohead

 

[Chilli.s]

Yeah, bandcamp.
I love that Thom Y said "its not v interesting"! I had it playing some more yesterday in the background, it's like an aural version of looking at an artists sketchbook, v interesting if you like that sort of thing.
An 18 hr OK Computer.

 

[neonwilderness]

An 18 hr OK Computer.

 

[friedaweed]

Listening to it now. Very nice

 

[londonkid]

Ok Computer was one of the best UK albums in my Opinion. Liked Kid A too.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

In Rainbows is easily their best album. (I've probably said that 100x before.)

 

[neonwilderness]

Amnesiac and/or Kid A are usually my favourites, but it's pretty subjective and does change occasionally.

I'm just finishing the first disk and very much this

I actually quite like that it's one track rather than individual songs, it makes you listen to it all rather than skipping to the stuff you recognise.

It goes on and on, some great live versions.

 

[Smokeandsteam]

Thom Yorke’s latest album ‘Anima’ is fucking superb. Easily his best solo effort:



There is even a short film by Paul Thomas Anderson featuring 3 of the songs:

[Johnny Vodka]

Heard Lianne La Havas' cover of Weird Fishes on 6 Music this morning. It's pretty good, though not as good as the original and not as good as Robert Glasper's take on Reckoner either.

 

[Detroit City]

In Rainbows is easily their best album. (I've probably said that 100x before.)

i agree with that and 2nd place is The Bends

 

[nogojones]

Really bland. I struggle to tell them apart from Coldplay
