Thom Yorke Latest News

Gonna try to wear an accessory that makes me look younger that helps me appeal to a younger generation of bros that helps me recapture an entry-level spirit. My name is Thom I’ve written some of the most important CD albums of the past 100 years become a global visionary environmental leader and an internet marketing and music industry guru [via In_Rainbows] But it’s time for...
We recently found ourselves arguing about the importance of band names. Our point was that a great band name can never be undervauled or carelessly chosen.

We then saw that she was touring with some MOKB-beloved bands along with playing SXSW for some of our favorite...
Michael Zapruder defies pigeon-holing. This San Francisco singer-songwriter can emulate Nick Drake in his Bryter Layter phase in Ads for Feelings, do a convincing Thom Yorke whine and channel the lyricism of Leonard Cohen (White Raven Sails). Dragon Chinese Cocktail Horoscope is a folk record when you strip away all the other layers - Zapruder does it him self on >Harbor Saints. All his songs...
Radiohead- “Amnesiac” Recorded mostly during the same sessions for “Kid A”, Radiohead described these two albums, released in 2000 and 2001, as “twins separated at birth”. Considering that “Kid A” is on fairly good terms with bleakness, it shouldn’t be taken lightly that “Amnesiac” is the creepy, fucked up sibling...
