that description is a bit of a red flag for me though - i hope it's not going to be a record that only aims to be weird, bleepy and incoherent. still though, super fucking excited for this

Pissing on something you're excited about sure is a strange reaction.

Not for animals

from radiohead? never!

i will also piss on radiohead.

I wonder if this is gonna be some sort of Hooverphomic-type orchestral rock.

I hope it has songs where Thom is like "Ooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuoooooo oooooooooo"

I hope it's super bleep bloody and it gets rave reviews and classic rockers feel insecure about their tastes once again

Johnny Greenwood said something about how they relearned to play as a band for this album or something to that end, and that they had been working on "limiting" themselves. whatever that means

I'm hoping for something that leans more towards In Rainbows than bleep bleep bloop bloop. I wasn't that into King of Limbs

I just want something that's different

Not like "never heard before!" but just Radiohead exploring some new territory

Or I mean I'd be okay if they just literally made "Kid A 2" with that title and everything

What's pretentious about folk music other than the fact that you don't understand it?

Rajasthan Express is the band, ben tzur is the composer, and greenwood produced it.

I think you're giving radiohead a little too much credit, as if johnny greenwood invented this or something.

Fair enough - but yea it will give a lot of exposure to the project. You know how some idiot fans of bands will buy anything.

I have tickets for one of the Roundhouse (1,700 capacity) shows in May. :D I hope the album is good.

i just watched Junun the other day actually. in parts.
It kinda blew my mind how random it is for some israeli stoner guy making indian music in India (there are plenty of those guys fwiw) to be able too hook up with Johnny Greenwood and Paul Thomas Anderson.

r kelly wud disagree

I like all Radiohead material so far, so I don't care if it's bleep-bloopier than ever, or a return to '90s alt rock (so long as it doesn't sound like Pablo Honey or something). But if they're talking about an orchestra, I'm thinking it might either be "Spectre"-esque big-band-ish stuff, or maybe sorta symphonic-electronic rock or something.

I think I've heard that the last album was mostly Yorke? Maybe that's what Greenwood means by this being more of a band effort.

bleep bloop? are you refering to kid a/amnesiac style stuff?

cos there are many words that come to mind when one seeks to define this sound (such as senescence or visceralitude) but none, i repeat NONE of these words is bleep bloop.

motherfucker.

I hear they are releasing a box set called "Radiohead: The Bleep Bloop Years." It has a lot of outtakes of bleeps and bloops that didn't make it into the final songs.

Outtake from "Treefingers"
