Should we livestream our reaction to In Rainbows?
please try Radiohead Live on Le Reservoir 2003 first
Do the studio version
From the basement is one of the best things I have ever seen live and as a bonus there are NO copyright issues so you don't have to cut it up.
You should almost always do the studio album first the one exception would be The King Of Limbs which is far better live from the basement and I would highly recommend you just skip the studio and go right to that. The album is very short and the missing songs they didn't put on the record are great and the much more organic sound live beats the sh*t out of the robotic and I don't know the term but I guess just overproduced studio version. If you do that basement session I think you will feel it was a worthy project if not i'm afraid you will not like the record that much just my opinion but an awful lot of people wholeheartedly agree.
Am I crazy? I feel like none of these replies are understanding the question.. which is, should THEY do a live reaction to the studio album of In Rainbows?
I’d normally say yes but I’m too confused now 😂
Looking forward to In Rainbows
Also, Thom very much believes in the Death of the Author concept. Once the music is released, he no longer has control over meaning or artistic interpretation. On In Rainbows, he gives voice to wanting it to have the widest range of interpretations. It’s also why he’s so ambiguous whenever anyone asks Thom about the meaning behind his lyrics.
You should listen to The Smile. Wall of Eyes is great that album just released.
Have to get through In Rainbows and Moon Shaped Pool, first.
@chrisbeffa8890 you mean A Moon Shaped Pool, and you've missed The King Of Limbs
Eh, they could skip King Of Limbs, imo, or at least wait until they've listened to the more critically acclaimed albums like In Rainbows and Moon Shaped Pool first.@@wazzygd
@@chrisbeffa8890 King Of Limbs & Amnesiac are the best albums. Moon Shaped Pool is boring.
Most people would disagree with that take, but at the end of the day that's the great thing about music. It doesn't matter if you're in the minority or majority or whatever. Art is subjective.@@olivegys2093

thom yorke has a son, the song "sail to the moon" was actually written for him. also a lot of the songs are inspired by nursery rhymes and childrens' tales
As promised: TRIVIA TIME!
- The album's title, "Hail To The Thief", is a play on "Hail to the Chief" used as a chant by protestors of the 2000 presidential election to refer to George W. Bush, as that election was very contentious and allegedly rife with fraud.
- This is the sixth and final album released by the band under their contract with EMI. Starting with In Rainbows, the band would be independent.
- The song "I Will" was originally recorded as an electronic-heavy track, which was described as "dodgy Kraftwerk" and later became the basis for "Like Spinning Plates" on Amnesiac. If you reverse "I Will" you can hear "Like Spinning Plates".
- The band wanted to capture an immediate and "live" feel on HTTT, working quickly and spontaneously in the studio, avoiding procrastiation. They recorded most of the album in about two weeks in LA, focusing less on overdubbing and more on live takes.
- Thom drew inspiration from the then unfolding War on Terror, fairy tales, and children's literature when writing the lyrics. For some songs, he used the cut-up technique employed on Kid A and Amnesiac, cutting up words and arranging them randomly.
- The album art, done by longtime collaborator Stanley Donwood (who's done the art for all nine albums), is a roadmap of Hollywood with the words taken from roadside ads in LA and Thom's lyrics.
- According to Ed O'Brien, the guitarist, HTTT was the first album "where, at the end of making it, we haven't wanted to kill each other".
- According to producer Nigel Godrich, a third of the album consists of rough mixes from the LA sessions.
- Every track has an alternate title, as follows (the album is subtitled as The Gloaming*):
• The Lukewarm
• Snakes & Ladders*
• Brush The Cobwebs Out Of The Sky
• Honeymoon Is Over
• Little Man Being Erased*
• The Sky Is Falling In
• Your Time Is Up
• Softly Open Our Mouths In The Cold
• The Boney King Of Nowhere*
• No Man’s Land
• No No No No No No No No
• Judge, Jury & Executioner
• As Dead As Leaves
• It Girl. Rag Doll
Asterisks mark titles considered for the album name.
- On March 30, 2003, ten weeks before release, an unfinished version of the album was leaked online, comprising rough edits and unmixed songs from January of that year. The band was upset not because it was leaked but rather that it was a sloppy release of unfinished material. This leak partly influenced the band's decision to release their next album, In Rainbows, online.
- The band has been somewhat critical towards Hail To The Thief in retrospect, stating that they should have cut the album down to ten tracks. Thom posted an alternative tracklist in 2008 that omitted Backdrifts, We Suck Young Blood, I Will, and A Punch Up At A Wedding. Phil Selway, the drummer, described it as bridge between Amnesiac and In Rainbows in 2023.
2+2=5 is a reference to the novel, 1984. In this dystopian society, whatever the government says is the truth, so if the government says that 2+2=5, that is what is true and you have to believe them.
where I end and you begin is top 5 for me, sometimes my fav and definitely a profound and unique masterpiece that stands out and ages like great wine.
There There is definitely up there with their best - top 5 IMHO
Agree! What a groove...
Thom Yorke is probably a genius. A visionary, perhaps. So is Jonny Greenwood. Also Colin, Ed and Phil are outstanding together and each of them are exceptionaly good musicians individually. It's very hard imagining the sound of Radiohead without any one of them. Oh and also, Nigel Godrich!!!
Watch 'Meeting people is easy'. You won't regret it. Cheers!
I remember reading an interview with Thom where he said that he had gone on a drive with his dad as a child and saw a bunch of rabbits that had been killed by myxamatosis and this stuck with him. I cant seem find the quote now on my quick google search, but pretty sure thats the main gist of the story.
“They DONT miss” I heard that ☝️THEYRE just too good
I remember when this came out being so happy that the rock band version of Radiohead had figured out how to exist with the electronic version of Radiohead in a cohesive way. I also think Colin Greenwood and Phil Selway figured out how to create the pocket grooves that are so deep and danceable around such weirdly angular music and make it hooky. This is Radiohead achieving their final form.
and then with in rainbows they completely master it
2 + 2 = 5 is most probably a reference to Orwell's 1984.
Not sure if someone in the comments has already mentioned this, but i will is actually inspired by the war in iraq & the people in the bunker who were bombed (many of whom were children, ergo the references to kids) iirc thom has said its his angriest song despite how much it sounds like a lullaby
It's great to see you guys experiencing Radiohead music evolving from what it is at this point of their career. Definitely rare to see a band stick together for so long and evolve together.
Left channel: Am I joke to you?
Wear your headphones over your ears, you'll miss the stereo image. Half of the layers of the song is gone. 😁
Wolf at the Door is devastating and heart wrenching
Bro put both headphones on mannnn
After Radiohead you guys should react to 'The Smile' It is Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwoods offshoot project post pandemic
My favourite Radiohead concert
Lol your description in the first 30 seconds of the gloaming described my entire life during my obsession with this album. It's so funny you brought up heroin, because I listened to this while in the deepest throes.
Same for me...
Love to listen to you guys discovering my favorite band and their albums. The kind of "wired" ones are after many listens often the favorites. But big request, when you come to " the king of limbs" you got to try their "from the basement" live studio version, it changes the whole album from a not so good to one of their best. They have 3 drummers, a brass band in the studio and it is just so organic and vibrant. It is some of their best work.
I could not agree more.
This was their first album written post 9/11. There was a lot of political unrest in the world coming to light at that time. I was in high school when this released. It was my first Radiohead album.
I like that the record musically feels so free, almost every song has different style elements, even though, as you guys already pointed out, the overall impression is indeed a mix of old (Bends, OK Computer) and new (Kid A and Amnesiac) and I love that about the album, it's very interesting.
Looking forward to in rainbows….. the build up has been so good!!!
Dope visuals in the back!
nice video ! keep up the good stuff
I'm already missing the tiki torches. Great content! Radiohead foreva! 🤘🏾🖖🏿🖤👽
I feel like there are some songs that are really good on this record like Sit Down Stand Up, A Punch Up At a Wedding and Scatterbrain that don't get enough love.
So, the thief in this case would be George W. Bush, who stole the election. And that hail was pretty sarcastic, I think :))
you guys are awesome
watched this jaunt with sunglasses on. fried up rn just zoning to you heads
Thom was quite political with his lyrics at this time and with his solo record 'The Eraser'. I feel like this whole album is an extention of 'Idioteque'. I remember Thom talking a lot about Global Warming at the time (rebranded Climate Change). Funny you should mention the Matrix so much as the 2nd and 3rd movies were released in the same year as Hail To The Thief.
Love you guys, may I recommend a random assortment of afull discography: Tool, Incubus, Cold Play, Portishead, Queens of the Stone Age, The Srokes, The White Stripes, lesser known things now: Russian Circles, Red Sparrowes, Mogwai
underrated take but where did you get the background video for all of the songs? It's so fitting with the song 😭
I was thinking the same!
Could be cool to check out some of Thom's solo stuff too. Eraser and Anima are both fantastic albums.
Tales from topographic ocean, And the Art, Will open your eyes
After checking out all of the albums, I’d say some of their b-sides are worth listening (Mainly Amnesiac, TKOL, and the OKNOTOK and KID A MNESIA bonus tracks), some of these b-sides are gems and even stronger than some A-sides occasionally
Im just like the chap on the right when listening to RH...cant stop my head wobbling haha, good to see your feeling it too
Love this album
I don't know how one listens to Myxomatosis with just one ear and get it.
An idea for your weekly polls: If you choose the top two albums voted (number 1 that week, number 2 the following). One fan base won't be taking over the poll, and over half the people voting will be invested for the channel. Just an idea, keep up the good content!
I have a suggestion :)
You guys should react to the band called The Smashing Pumpkins and their album called Siamese Dream
You don’t have to but it’s a pretty good album
It’s an alternative indie rock album
You NEED to React to Grateful Dead, if you cant listen to a full show since they are like 3 hours, I'd recommend listening to Scarlet Begonias and Fire in the Mountain from Cornell 77' but its important to play them consecutively
"Back to basics" - It's still Radiohead being incredibly complex and smart.
Myxamatosis is the best
Totally agree that Wolf at the Door, 2+2=5 and There There are the best 3 songs on the album while even though I think that the album is a bit bloated, my fav tracks are the first and last with one from the middle section. So there's always something great coming up if listening in full; of course they aren't the only good tracks on it though.
Genuinely excited to see y’all experience In Rainbows
Can you do In Rainbows outdoors like OK Computer? I know you want to hear each other but PLEASE get both sides of those headsets on! You’re missing so much sound!
Would you guys ever give fall out boy a listen for the show? i’d recommend starting with infinity on high!
My favorite is kid a but I love this album. All of em
So many good trax, but the one I slept on the most was "Sail to the moon"..shame on me, I know.
When are you going to listen to PINK FLOYD album the WALL?
You should listen to Atoms For Peace, Thom side project with Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers. Its also amazing!
I wish I was still young enough to think there there was about a girl lmao.
I've never seen a more dyslexic pair of twins
You guys should listen to Issues form Korn
So... people are calling capitalism "the Matrix" nowadays? Ok.
oh, my bad, he calls anything that he doesn't comprehend "the matrix".
I love watching you guys react to Radiohead. Really a treat; I get both nostalgic and anticipating at the same time. Very cool.
But I have one concern however: it seems that you've been watching The Matrix TOO MUCH ;D
You guys should listen to Gawk by Vundabar
I know everyone ranks this album B Tier but to me it's a A Tier minimum. An absolute classic Radiohead album. But I rank every Radiohead album A or S Tier... even The Bends.
waiting for in rainbows

Pearl Jam-Ten is a great album

Subscribed. Great performance and reaction! If you would like to explore more and expand your channel, may I suggest a reaction to BABYMETAL. They are unique. Their music has a positive and uplifting message. They have a fun and awesome performance:
BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO) (OFFICIAL)
Or:
MAYA【Live Blu-ray/DVD「BABYMETAL BEGINS - THE OTHER ONE -」"BLACK NIGHT"】
Or to showcase the lead singer’s amazing voice:
