Awesome Radiohead

AMSP features new tracks like Daydreaming and Burn the Witch and new versions of old songs, with the band’s trademark unsettling rhythms and sounds amidst harmonious strings. Also available as lossless WAV, CD or vinyl. Video by Paul Thomas Anderson.

After wiping out their entire internet presence, Radiohead is back with a bang. Here’s the debut music video from their forthcoming album; a sinister stop-motion short by Chris Hopewell in which a peaceful village is home to some rather nasty rituals.

An oddly soothing (and just plain odd) cover of Radiohead’s 1997 dark societal commentary No Surprises played entirely on kazoo. The fact that it took over 5 years for the internet to discover this video is astounding.

Before they decided to go with Sam Smith, it seems that the theme song for James Bond’s Spectre was going to be sung by Radiohead. As a holiday gift, the band released the track for free. It’s an awesome Radiohead song, but Thom Yorke is still no Adele or Shirley Bassey.

A long lost performance from Prince’s 2008 Coachella appearance – an oh so special cover of Radiohead’s Creep. The clip had been removed due to copyright issues, but now even Prince himself seems to approve. The video quality stinks, but it’s the music that counts.

After wowing us with some Hendrix, musician Luna Lee dials it down a notch for a moving performance of the Radiohead classic Creep, played on her traditional Korean string instrument, the Gayageum.

Grammy-winning Jazz and R&B musician Robert Glasper turns in a brilliant instrumental rendition of Radiohead’s track Reckoner. The track appears on his upcoming live album Covered, to be released June 16th.

Chiptuner RGYDK has not just created 8-bit covers of a few tunes here and there, he’s replicated entire albums by Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Nirvana and even Jethro Tull. Sadly, the lawyers yanked down his Led Zeppelin album.

Radiohead have released PolyFauna an app that combines sounds from Bloom off of 2011’s The King of Limbswith trippy visuals that transform your surroundings into digial landscapes just begging to be explored. Android version here.

A jazzy arrangement of Radiohead’s Creep, performed by vocalist Karen Souza, ironically turning the tables on the song’s original protagonist. Hear more of her sultry covers here. Her Tainted Love is pretty great too.

Radiohead’s Thom Yorke reunites with the band from his Eraser tour – Joey Waronker, Mauro Refosco, Nigel Godrich and Flea – for the new album AMOK. The track here is Judge Jury & Executioner.

Similar to their Praha gig, Radiohead’s 2011 concert at Roseland Ballroom in New York was shot from multiple angles by fans, with the audio provided by the band themselves. Torrent files at the link.

We don’t know where this guy got the idea to tape pieces of lettuce together and punch holes in them so they could be used to play Paranoid Android, but this is the Internet, so we’ve stopped asking.

While Conan O’Brien won’t win any Grammys for his vocal prowess, we’re still entertained by his bits-and-pieces rendition of Creep, backed by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.

YouTuber OHADI 22 mixed 35 different covers of Radiohead’s Paranoid Android from YouTube to create one unified rendition. A collaboration across time and space. Only on the Internet folks.

Thom Yorke’s mime-magician-revival dancing style in Radiohead’s latest video is also an amusing companion to Beyonce’s Single Ladies. Watch it quick, before Sony finds this and puts a ring on it.

Radiohead fans, rejoice. The band has made the surprise announcement that they’re releasing a new album this week. Downloadable on Saturday Feb. 19, a fancy LP/CD version ships in May.

Alex Heller’s wonderful, poignant, memorable short animation, featuring the haunting version of Creep by the Scala & Kolacny Brothers Choir, is composed of 1554 pictures, shot with a Nikon D60.

Ok, Radiohead’s video for House of Cards isn’t new, but did you know that you can manipulate the 3D plotting technologies they used to create it on Google code? Inspired, mindbending, cool stuff.

David Altobelli’s haunting, artful video for Philip Selway’s solo album has such a simple premise, but left us shaken by the end. What else do you expect from one of the members of Radiohead?
