Thom Yorke at the Echoplex Friday night? Your official non-denial, non-confirmation answerOctober 1, 2009 | 12:06 pm
So there's a hot rumor that Thom Yorke and his new assembled band will be performing a clandestine show at the Echoplex Friday night before their two-night stand at the Orpheum this weekend. We reached Yorke's publicist by phone just now, and this is the current official line on the show's factual existence.
"We cannot confirm nor deny it, but we will confirm or deny it by tomorrow morning."
So coy. So cryptic. So Thom Yorke. We're not saying to get your camping gear out just yet, but there is a very conspicuous empty slot on the Echoplex's show calendar for Friday night. Maybe you should keep your Sterno in an easily reachable place, if, say, you need to grab it before claiming a spot on a Glendale Boulevard sidewalk in the next 24 hours.

Thom Yorke fans kill Ticketweb ... brieflyOctober 2, 2009 | 1:29 pm
Well that was expectantly fast.
Thom Yorke's last-minute show tonight at the Echoplex went on sale today via Ticketweb, and the site reported the gig was sold out by the time Pop & Hiss was even able to access the show listing.
For those keeping score at home, it took about seven minutes to crack through to the site, with every regular concertgoer's worst nightmare -- the dreaded "processing" page instructing users not to touch their Web browsers -- creating a virtual moat between us and the opportunity to see Radiohead's frontman in cramped quarters.
Worse, some of our office comrades who actually fought their way through Internet traffic jams and found an on-sale screen were still waiting for Ticketweb to process their requests at 12:28 p.m. -- almost 30 minutes after the on-sale time (we're good at math, to boot). Of course, with a capacity of well under 1,000, we expected as much.
Tickets soon hit Craigslist and eBay. As of the time of this posting, Craigslist seemed to be the better bargain, with tickets selling for around $750. On auction site eBay, expect to shell out a couple months' rent for a pair, as tickets are listed for about $3,500 -- buyer beware, of course.Yorke will also appear at downtown's Orpheum Theatre Sunday and Monday, and those tix are more of a bargain -- a seat looks like it can be snagged for about $150 on Craigslist.
Anyone who had success getting tickets, we invite your stories of ticket-purchasing heroism in the comments section below. Those who failed, we want your horror stories as well.

Apparently rumours were true. They did make a song for the latest Bond film. This is so much better than the Sam Smith song. Way more interesting and despite the weird rhythm I somehow think it would have fared better in the charts. The Sam Smith only has one memorable hook, if they wanted to get Adele's level of success they should have went for someone else than these two.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 25 December 2015 20:13 (eight years ago) link
Lana del Rey's 24 (suppossedly another rejected track) is also more fitting than the Sam Smith one. I prefer female singers on bond themes to be honest.

The strings sound amazing. Apparently the arrangements were composed by Jonny. If this is the end result I wouldn't mind if they do a full album with an orchestra involved. I think he started experimenting with string arrangements in How to dissappear completely and they're by far the best thing about it.

Lift: This song was boring in 1996, and is still boring now. Coldplay have based their entire career on this song.― Melissa W (Melissa W), Thursday, August 22, 2002 12:32 AM (13 years ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Until that’s decided - here's one song: it’s called ‘You Will Never Work In Television Again.’

It’s the track I enjoyed the least from the Glastonbury set, I still don’t like it that much. waiting on the rest of the album hopefully soon, the rest of the set had some promising moments.

"porous" is better known as "open the floodgates", a song thom was playing back in 2009

The radiohead effect: after listening to this song three times today I’ve done a 180 degree turn and now I really like it.

this sounds like a lot of early solo thom yorke songs i forgot

Lol I’m the opposite I like this one way better than the first one. It’s got some afrobeat groove going on that I’m a fool for. Also love those horns.

the groove could be good but they don't really do anything with it, feels like a sketch that they didn't have enough people in the band to fill out. just meandering and forgettable as is

Iirc correctly Fela Kuti has been an influence since Kid A.

Sault does it way better, and they both seem heavily influenced by Kuti and Can and I’m not complaining.

Well, I like it and think it is good
― change display name (Jordan), Friday, 28 January 2022 20:47 (two years ago) link
I like it, too (much more than the "punk" of the first single). Wasn't saying Yorke heard Sault as an insult.
― Soundslike, Saturday, 29 January 2022 04:19 (two years ago) link
Watching the stream for the second show and whoa. There’s some amazing songs there. Particularly loving “open the floodgates” so far.
This is by far the best Radiohead side project so far. I don’t see how several of these couldn’t have made it for an actual Radiohead album.

phil and ed and colin were sacked
― Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 January 2022 17:25 (two years ago) link
Lol next song I think is “free in the knowledge” sounds like a distant cousin to “karma police”… has a very distinct OK Computer flavor to it.
I’m feeling bad for the sacked members, specially Ed. These are the sort of songs he’s been wanting Radiohead to play since Kid A.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Sunday, 30 January 2022 17:28 (two years ago) link
don't feel bad for them. ed is part of the beatles touring band now, phil's working on sanding down every rough edge he ever had, and colin is focusing on lucrative bass solo for runway gigs

Hmm, that means one of them is a “masked singer” then.

not at all? the mood here is largely an extension of the jammiest parts of the last two rh albums, not anywhere near three minute guitar pop songs.
not really feeling this material in general

i like "we don't know what tomorrow brings" and then "free in the knowledge", "open the floodgates" and "you will never work in television again" are alright.
