AR: Radiohead - Amnesia Promo

back | index | next || random

1 - pyramid
so here is the promo for the radiohead album to come out in june. i hear piano and some synthy strings and thom yorke. some eastern strings. ooh, drums now. song isn't doing much. took a while for the drum to pick a rhythm. Ok, it's built a bit, still just a piano dirge with huge orchestra about going to heaven with all his lovers and pasts and futures in a row boat.

2 - I Might Be Wrong
this is grooving. kind of a twangy tuned down guitar. ooh, nice rhythm beep action. alright, can't understand thom, but i'm bopping my head, and that's good. ooh, that line at 1:35 sounded like another song. DMB "Let you down." yeah, that quick melody line keeps coming up. Oooh nice cut at 3:50. Liked this a lot.

3 - Packt Like Sardines in a Chrusd Tin Box
sounds like weird pots and pan percussion. keyboard action. no more pots, just clicks and electric beats. "i'm a reasonable man get off my case." looks like i've heard it for lyrics. definitely sounds like its a kid a session recording. sounds like shit, optimistic? dunno kid a well enough to pick out by name. that was fine.

4 - dollars and cents
got no lyrics and can't understand him. heavy percussion, pretty thick arrangement. ah got lyrics. ooh creepy, "won't you quiet down" over and over while thom is screaimng shit in the background. this is good. whatever these lyrics are from, it's not the finished version. Hooray for capitalism: "we are the dollar and cents and the ponds and pence and we're gonna crack you little soul."

ok, looks like june should be some fun.
