Burn the Witch- https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yI2oS2hoL0k

Daydreaming- https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TTAU7lLDZYU

Is it gonna be good?
>>
>>64638214
based on burn the witch, it'll be okay.
based on daydreaming, it'll be one of their best releases.
>>
>>64638214
I was avoiding being hype, but having heard the songs I can't fight it any longer.

Also
>people reversing the sound to hear what he's saying at the end
>not reversing the video despite the fact that he's clearly mouthing the words
>>
>>64638258

I feel the other way around. I prefer the tension of Burn The Witch, not that Daydreaming is bad but if I'm gonna root for one song or the other then I'm gonna go with BTW.
>>
That music video is beyond comfy.
>>
As a radiohead megafan, I don't think I've ever heard them sound so openly, deeply hurt.

It's legitimately upsetting.

I didn't want to be overhyped but based on these two singles....
>>
>>64638698
Amnesiac was fucking hurt as hell. I do get some Amnesiac vibes from Daydreaming, but more mature and less angsty, more like actual dread
>>
I think It's going to be good. This is the most excited I have been for an album since the last Radiohead album. They have a way of building hype with their releases. I thought TKOL was only just ok. /mu/ says its because i'm too gosh darn stupid to understand.
>>
I have a feeling that Daydreaming is going to be my least favorite song on the album. I can't really get into it.
>>
>>64638698
I concur. I turned it on for the first time in my car on the way home from school. Shit caught me off guard as to how gloomy and shit it sounded. Based off the sound bit the had alongside the instagram snippit I didn't think it was going to be this depressing.
>>
>>64638860
TKOL is groove central. Try to just get into the mood and move yourself to it, the rhythm on this one is crazy, and unlike most dancey-rhythmic music, it still maintains that Radiohead subtlety in details, which makes it freaking a-mazing.

Try From The Basement for better versions of Bloom and Little By Little. Also I really couldn't get into LBL until I heard this mix
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBvu5_1Ztwk
It's a mix with much louder drums, so the syncopated guitar doesn't mess the rhythm that much, makes it crazy how it sounds like an absolutely different song when you don't focus on the guitars.
>>
>>64638972
I disagree. I actually think that with current Thom's lyrical style going anywhere longer than 5 minutes without big instrumental parts intertwined drawns out the songs too much. 2nd half of TKOL was super guilty of this.
>>
>>64639016
Yeah I remember when the basement sessions came out for TKOL they were way better. That whole album sounded way better live then the studio recordings from the album imo. I wish there was just an album of those.
>>
I like Daydreaming a lot more than BTW but what Radiohead are trying to accomplish on that song has just been done so much better by people like Manual and Jullianna Barwick and I kind of thought the vocal effects they were twinging off and on were trying to accomplish a level of ambiance that Thom's shrill voice can't achieve.

I mean it's fine but I do kind of wish they'd give the song to someone else to fuck with before layering effects on to it.
>>
>>64639117
Basement sessions are pretty good for getting into the songs imo, but apart from maybe more energetic Bloom, I think that it really lacks the layers of the studio version. It's especially apparent on Feral.
>>
>>64639185

The vocal fuckery on Daydreaming kinda reminds me of Bjork's Medulla.
>>
>>64639193

I don't get why people shit on Feral whatsoever. To me it's the most energetic and arguably catchiest thing on TKOL.
>>
>>64639336
It's because most people don't love mood-setting interludes, even when they encompass the feeling of the album the best, same with Treefingers and I Will (and Fitter Happier too)

Althought I feel it's not like they really hate them, it's that they don't remember them as much as the other songs that stand out more.
>>
Both just sound like mediocre songs dressed up with some decent production/arrangements. Maybe they'll grow on me but I'm not impressed so far.
>>
Since they haven't announced the title yet, that makes me think it might be self titled, and if that's the case I'd put BIG money on this being it. Last album, band done. Then again, given the whole 10 motif, they might wanna have 10 albums
>>
>>64639429

I guess that makes sense. I Will isn't a favorite of mine but I acknowledge its worth on HTTT. I do think Treefingers is pretty good though and Fitter Happier is actually one of my favorites on OKC.
>>
>>64638842


No but Amnesiac is smoldering and tense and frantic with energy. Even the most demented it gets still has an obvious lifeforce. This song just whimpers about nakedly. It's great but sooo different
>>
>>64639429
Feral is far more of a song than it is a "mood-setting" interlude IMO.
>>
Where's my damn Daydreaming mega
>>
burn the witch has grown on me a lot and I'd say it's 7.5/10.

daydreaming is beautiful and 9/10 possibly higher.
>>
>>64639840


If we're going to track lyricism to the dissolution of Thom's relationship, which seems to me what Daydreams is about, then Feral is the most obvious throughline to that song

'I'm Not Yours
You're Not Mine
It's All Fine
Please Don't Judge Me'

pretty devastating when you get down to brass tacks and that animalistic swelling of everything going on in that song. My favorite off KoL
>>
>>64638268
"half of my life/half of my love"
>>
>>64639336
It's like a perfect blend of afrobeat and UK dubstep
>>
>>64639429
Treefingers is like a 10/10 ambient song along the lines of Brian Eno, Aphex Twin etc.

Seriously, when they debuted that live during TKOL tour, that was one of the most hype AF moments of that whole deal.

Daydreaming sounds like it leads into a much more interesting song at the end.

Daydreaming really doesn't make me feel good about the LP.

They've become a parody of themselves.
>>
>>64640378
They have absolutely not become a parody of themselves bruh, what do you mean by that? Yes, after, decades of making music and performing together Radiohead still sound like Radiohead but it's still quality music and is coming from a sincere place and so cannot possibly be a "parody" of themselves.
>>
>>64640427
What I'm saying is that it doesn't add anything to their legacy if they made or didn't make Daydreaming.

So they might as well not have made it if all they could do is rehash things they've already done before.

>>64640453
The idea that artists should only ever create music to innovate and add to their own personal canon is something I just disagree with strongly so I can't agree with you here m8. It's a great song, one I personally (and many others) enjoy very much so saying they might as well not have made it because they aren't making music according to an arbitrary set of standards is weird to me. Not like they've ever actually done a song like Burn the Witch before, though, and I really can't think of an immediate comparison between Daydreaming and their previous piano-ballad songs. Maybe Codex? Two songs are completely different though.

I mean honestly it must be difficult to be artists as revered as Radiohead as there's always this pressure of creating music that's forward-thinking literally every outing.

What was the significance of them whiting out all their social media accounts (including Thom and Jonny's twitter)?

Is it supposed to be conceptual or be representative of something?
>>

It was just a cleansing.
>>
>>64642857

Agreed. Both are good songs, though.
>>
Both of these tracks are better than anything on TKoL, and I even really liked that album. I really hope this isn't a case of frontloading the best songs as singles and the rest being a lot weaker.

It seems pretty clear that the album's general tone is that of depression, loss, and resentment to me. Daydreaming is overtly sad and depressing, and Burn the Witch has a really weird malice to it buried under the jingly, upbeat tone. Both music videos also had a sort of wandering protagonist too. Hell, even the deletion of all their social media stuff kinda ties into this as well. It's probably not a concept album but everything they've done so far leading up to it has really carried a sense of unease and despair to it like giving up or profound loss buried under a cold exterior.

Lol, imagine you’re getting ready to shock the world with your Claymation Wicker Man and then Lemonade happens. In theory, Radiohead “wiping their web presence” is an interesting response to the Event Album era, but if you’re not going to go balls out, delete your entire Twitter account, and go straight analog, I’m kind of like, “whatever, guys.” This sounds like a Radiohead song.

Amnesiac isnt that good. Has a lot of OK tracks, a few great ones, but other than that I think the only thing that works for it is the depression theme. It's not edgy or angsty depression but really raw sounding and sort of more insane than sad.

I think a lot of people bond with that theme, and i did too, but when im not in that mood Amnesiac sort of loses it's touch because then the music just seems like its going nowhere
>>
>>64643991
In Rainbows is the only Radiohead album I can take seriously. Their other stuff is either too tryhard, or too conventional.
>>
>>64643963

Nah. This isn't my personal ranking but I'd imagine the average goes more like

Kid A = OKC > IR > Amnesiac > HTTT > Bends > TKOL > PH

>>64643991

IR isn't my favorite either but on an executional level it's probably their most mature - tight, accessible songwriting that masks a considerably darker undercurrent, but does so with subtlety more often than not. It also perfects the blend of styles they established proper with Amnesiac.

i personally love the default track listing.

I leave it up to me whether i want to listen to we suck young blood, were i end you begin, and backdrifts. Backdrifts i usually just skip after the first 2 minutes, that song is way too static to be, what was it 6 minutes?
>>
>>64644020

Sail To The Moon is the most off-base song on the album thematically, and that's only because it has a hint of hope instead of absolutely zero. The entire album is basically one huge dystopian drearfest, and in terms of mood We Suck Young Blood is one of its crown jewels. Only real problem with that song is that a monolithic dirge of that ilk sounds weird coming from Radiohead but it's no more out of context than There There, Backdrifts, Sit Down Shut Up, or any of the other "we're so worthless, why are we even still living" anthems.

I dont like this mentality cause I believe people that think this dont know how to take something sad and make good out of it.

Also there's a lot more power in the music, for example the chorus of the song (or whatever, the part where he's not singing and everything's climbing up in energy)

If you dont feel like you ascending with the instruments then you're missing out.

Radiohead in general is 8/10 as fuck. Like, I don't think a whole lot of their material is masterpiece tier but man, are they reliably solid.

Someone may have already deduced this, but at this point it seems probable to me that BTW won't be on LP9:
>explicitly state that Daydreaming will be on it
>Daydreaming sounds way different from BTW
>BTW being sold as a single
I like BTW but I would not be upset if this is the case.
>>
>>64644327
I disagree with your opinion.
>>
>>64644253
>tfw I get to see them in 2016
>>
>>64644560
I agree with you, here's my shitpost to let other shitposters know
>>
>>64644531
Even the great comedic works, like James Joyce's novels and Shakespeare comedies have hints of melancholy. If the only thing a work achieves is to make you happy, then it's no more interesting than jerking off or eating a good meal. Good art has to leave you feeling a bit weird afterwards.
>>
>>64644560
If BTW won't be on it then why is that song driving their hype train for the album?
>>
>>64644560

I'm hoping it makes the cut. Daydreaming is nice but BTW is considerably more my speed.
>>
>>64644631
>James Joyce's novels

>Shakespeare's sonnets

>A "hint" of melancholy
>>
>>64644560
Arent they both being sold as a single?
I dont get it.
None of those points make sense.
>>64644592
Thanks for beta testing the tour :^)
>>
>>64644641
Isn't that a thing in the British music industry to release singles that aren't tied to albums?
>>
>>64644661
I said Shakespeare's comedies, not sonnets.
>>
>>64644560
Let's just admit BTW is underwhelming, more son when you listen Daydreaming. I doesn't sound like a radiohead song for me. I know it was orchestrated by Jonny but still.
>>
>>64641809
I hope its not but I have a feeling it might be
>>
>>64644560
That makes no sense. Why would you drive the marketing train for an album with a song that's not even going to be on it?
>>
>>64644631
Literally everything can create and evoke melancholy.
You can't really say that Ulysses is a teenager crywank, and Shakespeare is a fucking hack so your whole post belongs in the trash.
Stop being a /lit/ pseudo-intellectual, turn off your tripcode and get the fuck out of my board until you have a 300-page analysis about Cervantes' work.
>>
>>64644731
My bad. Still sort of a silly thing to say about Joyce though
>>
>>64644811
>and Shakespeare is a fucking hack
Here's your reply. I hope the attention makes you happy.
>>
>>64644767
>implying Radiohead give a fuck about marketing

They've literally come out of nowhere after years of radio silence to announce they'd be dropping an album in a couple of days. They've done this on more than one occasion. at that. Being Radiohead is their marketing, they don't need to sell anybody on an album at this point.
>>
>>64644817
What's silly about it? Ulysses is a comedy with hints of melancholy. That's not a controversial statement.
>>
>>64644811
>Shakespeare is a fucking hack

You are a moron, and I don't mean that in a cutesy way.
>>

A portrait of the artist of a young man, a novel by James Joyce
>>
>>64644874
Yes, that's true, but who the hell even does something like that?
It's implied that BtW is going to be on LP9, considering they do state explicitly when it's a non album single (Spectre)
>>
>>64644767
>>64644641
Whether or not the song is on the new album, it gets people talking about Radiohead and new 'Head material. If people like BTW there's a good chance they'll check out the new album even if it's not on there. Hype is hype...seems pretty self-evident to me.

>>64644696
You don't think it'd be a little scummy for them to charge money for the BTW single less than a week before the whole album comes out which includes it?
>inb4 "music industry is full of scumbags" or something along those lines
It's not impossible, it just seems more logical that they wouldn't do that.
>>
>>64644921
Another novel written by Joyce. Cool, but I don't see how it's relevant.
>>
>>64644933
Some of the Beatles' biggest hits were never affiliated with an LP. Heck Radiohead have themselves released a handful of standalone tracks. It's just a weird thing with the British music industry to push unaffiliated singles. It'd be really weird to do it a week before releasing an album bit it's not inherently an unusual thing.
>>
>>64638214
I cant believe they are still releasing such good music. from this two tracks they are very capable of releasing AOTY 2016
>>
>>64644935
>You don't think it'd be a little scummy for them to charge money for the BTW single less than a week before the whole album comes out which includes it?
You mean like they did with Daydreaming?

I think a reasonable person would gather from my comment that I probably meant Ulysses, Finnegans Wake, and parts of Dubliners. I shouldn't have to qualify my comment with "most."

Just the font that's right

You absolutely should.
1. Dubliners is not a novel, and no this is not a nitpick

2.Every single story in dubliners is more than a bit melancholic

3.James Joyce only wrote three novels

why the fuck am i seeing little white dots popping up on the video? any one else getting this?
>>
>>64645521
Which video?
>>
why do these new songs (including titles and lyrics, also the way yorke sings) sound so 4chan /x/, like if thom has spent time on there researching and studying these types of realities, and accepting fate...Daydreaming looks like a goodbye from thom yorke, like if he's going to die, and burn the witch is Like a predictive song, the lyrics "this is a low flying panic attack" regardless of the music video for burn the witch foreshadowing the refugee crisis goin' around, Kinda Reminds me of Tyranny by The voidz (Julian Casablancas's New Band First Record) i feel like this new Album is Radiohead's "Tyranny" it's a political and wake-up reality record where thom yorke will take the listener through these series of trips only to lead him to the center of his destination where he'll question a certain song that's so good, that the lyrics will prob be subliminal, or maybe i'm just trippin' :P
>>
>>64645307
I don't want to get into a cheap quibble about referring to a collection of short stories as a novel (or using novel as a synonym for book), but I don't see how Joyce having written only 3 novels is relevant to this discussion. And from what I remember Dubliners has satirical elements.

>>64645349
>>muh plot over structure
He was prose over plot and structure. What are you talking about? He didn't even come up with his own stories; most were taken from Holinshed.

>Ulysses
>comedy
Uh, yes. The novel is satirical, and is usually considered a comedy. I'm assuming you didn't understand it.
>>
>>64645521
In day dreaming right, yea I think they used some filter but it's hardly noticeable
>>
>>64643667
helll yeesssss my dude
>>
>>64645521
If you're talking about BTW I think it's to make it look like dust on a film slide.
>>
Daydreaming sound like johnny greenwood compositions with Thom just kind of randomly making noises over them

It's quite good though
>>
just woke up, late to the party, but the ending and lyrics to day dreaming are spoopy.
>>
>>64645599
also this, so far the music sounds more like a movie soundtrack than an album
>>

Sounded like tmb to me.
>>
>>64645626
I actually was hating really hard on "Burn the Witch" - it's not bad. I like it as much as "Lotus Flower"
>>
>>64645559

Thom is prone to extreme hyperbole about government oppression of people, but especially white men apparently are at high risk here, because he is from Britain where it's a big running theme of fiction
>>
>>64645349
Ulysses is a lot of things and comedy is arguably one of them

That'll suck I guess but Radiohead hasn't put out anything less than decent post-Pablo Honey so I think it'll be a safe bet.

Why is Radiohead so ugly? Ed's the only attractive one in the lot.
>>
Why do people like Daydreaming over Burn the Witch. BTW had some amazing arrangements and crescendoed into a gorgeous climax. Daydreaming seems like a mediocre attempt at ambient. It's got that tedious af piano riff and goes absolutely nowhere. The textures arent interesting enough to make up for the boring aarangements. In fact it sounds kind of cheesy.
>>
>>64648618
Thom actually looks good when he's not trying to look like a hobo
>>
>>64648630

Because they think it makes them look cool to like the slower, less catchy song.
>>
>>64648630

I'm with you in preferring BTW but I feel like Daydreaming is a natural extension of the IR sound. It's got a more free, ethereal feeling to it with all the electronic elements bubbling under the core melody, and I think some of TKOL's flavor shines through it as well with the vocal manipulations. I'm not madly in love with it but I do think it is a good enough song.
>>
>>64643403
I don't think Sufjan would do something as dark as burn the witch
>>
daydreaming is going to be the last song?
>>
>>64645920
on amicable terms, though.

sad isn't even anything new for radiohead so daydreaming isn't too out there in tone for them.
