LOL

Album when?
>>
Light 9 to Solid 8.

Sounds like something that would fit well on Hail to the Thief with that strange ass chord in the background repeating over and over.
>>
>>64556995
5

If LP9 isnt like TKOL or amnesiac I wont even give a shit about it

They said the single would be available for purchase tomorrow, which is weird because you can already hear it for free everywhere. Also, they were wrong, because I just fucking bought it.

So maybe the album is tomorrow..
>>
It's good but it has zero emotional impact, just like TKOL
>>
It's ok. Maybe it'll grow on me but it seems to lack something. It's like they just dressed up a mediocre song with an interesting arrangement, which is my problem with most of TKoL and some of In Rainbows.
>>
>>64557108
Bloom, give up the ghost and separator had emotional impact...
>>
>>64557081
Because any time you have to describe your process of getting into a song like that, it means you're trying and you don't really like it that much

>>64557151
oops didn't mean to quote anyone

>>64557146
It would fit pretty well as a Codex like ballad midway through the album. But Radiohead's usually cool with just throwing out singles/B-sides like the songs they released post TKOL.

It's nothing but people telling others they're plebs for not liking Radiohead so they perform some mental gymnastics and convince themselves that Radiohead is good. Then they call others who don't like them plebs for not liking them, and the cycle continues.

You'll frequently hear the terms "dissonant" "transcendental" and "genre-defying" associated with them as attributes that justify their objectively irritating and unlistenable music.

Burn the Witch lyrics

Stay in the shadows
Cheer at the gallows
This is a round-up
This a low-flying panic attack
Sing a song on the jukebox that goes

Burn the witch
Burn the witch
(intelligible)

Red crosses on wooden doors
If you float, you burn
Loose talk around tables
Abandon all reason
Avoid all eye contact
Do not react
Shoot the messengers
This a low-flying panic attack
Sing the song of sixpence that goes

Burn the witch

They targeted memes.
MEMES.
We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days even, performing some of the hardest, most cognitively dissonant tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital (You) saying we did.
We'll punish ourselves doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's edgy.
We'll spend most if not all of our free time beating the shit out of strawmen all to draw out a single extra reply.
Many of us have dedicated our lives to doing just these things: shitposting memes, all day, the same threads over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know every little detail such that some have attained such euphoria that they can literally shitpost blindfolded.
Do these people have any idea how many keyboards have been smashed, hot pockets over heated, poorly researched infographs destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as shitposting rights?
These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our memes? We're already forcing a new one without them. They take our verification icon? Memers aren't shy about throwing their NEETbux else where, or even making the memes our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by well adjusted people. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to logic and rationalization. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challenge when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with normal people laughing at how pathetic we are.
Memers are obsessive, easily triggered, by nature. We love to shitpost. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challenge us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another shit post

I got the hype but I got even more confused. That is because i started to make my own "reconstruction" of what I imagined Burn The Witch would sound like. I finished it some hours ago, approximately when the full original was released.

Imagine what it felt like listening to my owned imagined version (link in my earlier comment) and the listening to the real one. It was so weird and confusing. Short circuit.

This sounds like a modified demo for FL Studio

OK so obviously you need a crash course in serialism.

Serialism requires the pitches to be exactly ordered and appear in an exact order. There can be no variance in this, because the whole idea is to eliminate pitch as a variable in music and allow the composer to show expression in different ways.

Improvisation is 100% counter to planned rows of notes. You cannot have Serial jazz music.

>glossy string arrangement playing chord stabs that add barely anything to the song

Besides forming a rhythmic skeleton, and providing a basis for some nice harmonies and contrapuntal passages

>repetitive diatonic chord progression

Besides the fact that a cyclic chord progression isn't even necessarily a bad thing, and is a staple of most forms of music, there are multiple shifts in the chord progressions throughout the song, they're subtle so I can understand a babbys first music theory clown missing them

>reverb-laden vocals singing a shitty simplistic melody in falsetto

Reverb-laden vocals are pretty normal for Thom Yorke, as is his falsetto. As far as the melody being simplistic, I mean, most vocal melodies are simple because of the limitations of the human voice lol, idk what makes it shitty though, it meanders a bit but that's a nice touch IMO

>generic dance beat underneath the whole thing

Completely lost me on this one lol, it's simple drumming and sounds programmed, but it doesn't sound like a "dance beat", especially compared to other Radiohead songs lol

>It's basically Viva la Vida

Not at all lol, it's missing the poor mixing, pseudo-intellectual lyrics, one octave vocal range, etc. The string arrangement in Viva la Vida could hardly be described as glossy IMO. The strings on this track sound spliced and distorted a bit, makes it more interesting to me and fits in with the the music nicely, whereas the strings on Viva la Vida are pretty clean and unaltered. A cyclic diatonic chord progression is standard practice in almost any form of music, sort of a moot point if you want to claim it detracts, unless you have a strong case for why most pop, rock, blues, etc. songs are crippled by their chord progressions. Viva la Vida uses falsetto a lot more sparingly than Burn the Witch too, and Thom Yorke almost always sings in falsetto anyways lol.
>>
>>64557913
Oh gosh, it's a band that was inspired by RH, and it's a song that has plucked strings in them. It totally means, that RH ripped them, neverming that there's absolutely no tension in this one and just sounds generic and safe as Coldplay always does.
>>
Radiohead is back but with a dud rather than a hit: Burn the Witch is an emulation of arena rock and their 90's style that misses the mark largely due to a lack of energy. Most have compared the track to Viva la Vida, except for the fact that Viva la Vida is, in fact, a far better track with much more formal development across its duration. Despite Witch wanting to sound triumphant or poppy, Yorke's whine and the relatively dull string parts drain any grandiosity.

Watch it get a Grammy, though; people love this garbage.

I think my main problem with the song is the vocals.

Thom's droning voice just isn't that special anymore.

As far as gloomy ballads go, There There is much better imo, even though I don't like either that much, I like their rhythmic stuff more (TKOL was GOAT in that regard)

Now I'm not very sophisticated enough to explain exactly in words how wrong you are but if you think Coldplay's sappy pop with strings is any way comparable to the minimalism-influenced strings of Burn the Witch I can only assume you haven't heard enough music.

Yeah I'm just saying not only does it sound like a weaker version of Coldplay but also it's a shit track.

Except no, there are very clear parallels in affect, orchestration, even lyrically there are political implications of both.

Jesus, did Radiohead send their PR to /mu/ today? It's Radiohead central with all the damage control going on here. You didn't even refute the the previous poster in anyway just clarified a bit. The main point is that the song is the boring run-of-the-mill trite you hear everyday akin to Coldplay. Stop defending this stuff given that you may have the capacity to listen to better music.
>>
>>64557306
Except Coldplay has existed solely off of Radiohead's ballsweat since the beginning. Coldplay sucks ass in comparison and you know it.

I've tried to listen to other things, but i just keep coming back to this. Been waiting a while for this.

Why isn't there a black Radiohead member? Is Thom racist?

Those are very vague comparisons. Do something better with your day.

>>64557311
>its just like I'm missing something

Yes, it's called good taste in music.
>>
>>64558287
lol you're trying to criticize it by drawing really weak comparisons and tripling down on them, if you think the minimalism or vocals or mixing or whatever are weak then fair enough, you'd probably be better received if you elucidated that. People like different things though so I'm not sure why it's so important to you everyone knows you don't like Radiohead lol

The type of people who think this sounds like Coldplay are the type of people who would evaluate a song by the chord progressions it uses.
>>
>>64558333
Lol liking Radiohead and liking other artists aren't mutually exclusive, and all I did was point out what I liked about the song, and that the things the other poster didn't happen to enjoy, I did happen to enjoy. I did mock their weak utilization of references to music theory concepts though, since it read like something a high schooler who just read the wikipedia page on music theory would write. desu I don't care who likes or doesn't like this song, feel free to continue hating on people for finding enjoyment where you can't

I literally think it's one of their best songs.

That vocal melody in the chorus especially is orgasmic. The strings are also good.

>>64558507
Yep.

This single was waaaay above my expectations.

The lyrics especially. What a criticism of the music industry.

Let Down is my favorite too, anons.

It's a decent track. Remixes will be better. Guessing lead single cause they had this video idea in mind and it fit. Also it will sell. Thom's vocals are pretty high in the mix, will prob sound better in higher quality and on better speakers too.
>>
>>64558408
>Yeah some people are plebs who think easy listening music is the best Radiohead they've heard in years.

That's a load of bullshit. I would've never liked more than half of my favorite albums if I gave them just one listen. So many of them I straight up didn't like or couldn't comprehend with just one listen. Then after multiple plays I thought they were amazing.

Some albums and songs simply take a while to grow on you.

Just heard it now. It's pretty good, seems to be a thematic return to "stick in the ass" fearmongering Radiohead after the last 2 albums relatively calmed down, which means this album has a pretty decent shot at being great. Definitely digging the driving strings and backing electronics as well, and it's a pretty catchy track despite being so bleak lyrically. And the descent into dissonance at the end is a nice touch too, if not quite as compelling as when The National Anthem did it. Still, it's pretty good.
