Spin magazine has decided that Radiohead actually sucks after all. Discuss.
Music Buzz If you've ever seen someone do “Creep” on the original Rock Band: yeah. Pretty much spot on. (Does that make me the girl who likes depressing songs about fish?)
New song (“These Are My Twisted Words”) leaked by Radiohead just a week after the last one. [via Nerdcore via Stereogum] No official word on whether this is actually a new Radiohead song, but it sounds pretty damn convincing.

“OK Computer [SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S EDITION- 2 CDs + DVD]” from Radiohead is surging on Amazon.
Music Buzz Is there anyone Radiohead hasn't pissed off recently? I did hear a rumor that they made Tracy Jordan cry this one time.
Some guy composed Radiohead's Paranoid Android entirely in Mario Paint, it's surprisingly good.
Music Buzz There's growing evidence of a beef between two of music's biggest acts. After Radiohead's Thom Yorke allegedly snubbed Kanye West at this year's Grammys, poor, insecure Kanye has been talking behind the band's back. Hopefully they can settle this with a mashup or some kind of concept album.
Now for something unexpected (yet I have the feeling Thom Yorke would love it): comedian Bill Bailey performs “Creep” with the Bollywood Pandits.
Music Buzz Someone's gone and made a Radiohead/Jay-Z mashup. What kind of epicness will ensue when you combine the most epic rapper and the most epic band? Unfortunately, the name Jaydiohead is pretty un-epic. This might be the end of post-modernism as we know it.
Music Buzz Bloggers and indie bands agree: They don’t love Radiohead’s music. Is this just the usual crowing of the less-talented, or the voice of the silent, Radiohead-hating majority?
Radiohead’s latest music video was filmed without any cameras, using only lasers. Employing technology I’ve read about three times now but still don’t understand, the director captured all these images using lasers, which were somehow turned into data points. Radiohead and Goolge have teamed up to release some of the visualization data, which fans can use to remix. Not sure what it all means, but the video is cool.
Music Buzz Radiohead holds contest for In Rainbows music video. Similar to the “Nude” remix competition, fans were invited to submit music video ideas (which could range anywhere from a basic sketch to a fully animated film) for any of the songs off of their newest album. Submissions were whittled down through an aniBoom community voting process that will culminate when Radiohead themselves select a grand prize winner on July 10. The victor will be presented with 10,000 big ones toward creating a full-length video.
A video for the band’s song “Nude (Don’t Get Any Big Ideas),” as performed by a motley band of out-dated electronics. The video and remixed version of the song were created by fan James Houston — it’s hard to get into at first, but somehow ends up just as depressing as the original.
Music Buzz The band is holding a remix contest. Radiohead’s contest works like this: Download different parts of the song “Nude” from iTunes, remix it to your heart’s content, upload it and the world will vote for a favorite. Blog reaction is mixed: A) Everyone loves their music, but B) Why should you want to pay 99 cents per track to remix a song you don’t own any rights to? Either way, Radiohead wins!
