official Sandbox making fun of Radiohead thread

.

:) x-post

I'm not really OK but it's nothing that J-pop and getting better sleep / more light / shaking off this flu / intensive Vitamin D supplements won't fix eventually.

To me, Radiohead will always be the "great band that wanted to be so much more" , and I'm starting to get a handle on why I haven't listened to them like at all the last few years

so much less imo

it's upsetting because I do believe they're great songwriters and that things like "Let Down", "Bodysnatchers", and "Optimistic" should be the meat of the albums, not the diversions

I've become obsessed with Yorke's asymmetry. It's not just the ptosis of his left eye, his whole nose is slightly crooked, and his nostrils are two different sizes and shapes. In studies and tests, it's supposed to be the symmetry of a face that makes it beautiful, but he is so beautiful almost because of all those asymmetrically fucked up bits. Flaws in the midst of otherwise beauty capture and hold one's eye. Like the same way I think his voice is at its most powerful, not when he holds those impossibly high, floating notes, but when it breaks and jars and goes slightly whistley and sibilant around the edges. I hate when my brain gets on a locked groove like this. I know this man is a thoughtworm, not a crush. It gets intrusive and I want it to stop. I hate myself for the cliche of feeling this way. I know he'd loathe and fear me, too, for fixating. But what's one more person that loathes and fears me? There are already so many. Why do I think these things? Why do I say these things?

Did you guys know that Radiohead is headlining (both Saturday nights at) Coachella? Now you do.

Bonnaroo, too, I believe.

Fuck a festival, tbh.

This thread is way better than self-harm. It's like punching myself repeatedly in the face, but without all the tell-tale bruises.

Radiohead is the best band ever but Thom York is ugly!

Christ, I've only got one government name that's perpetually misspelled by people. If I were Thom Yorke I'd be a perpetual ball of penned up spelling fury.

Ha ha I don't think that's the right guy!

Tynan otm

only replace "dancing" with "singing"

only replacing 'singing' with 'recording, performing or otherwise producing any audible material whatsoever'

Next you'll be telling us you think Animal Collective are over-rated.

except acoustic covers of 'street spirit' tbf

xp i manage to avoid animal collective tbh

You be the cooker

^^^^^^^^now I have this stuck in my head thx guise

No probs, it was worth climbing a cornish hill to get a decent signal for.

If I were Thom Yorke I'd be a perpetual ball of penned up spelling fury.

Well he chose to spell his name Thom, so serves him right

Bet his parents chose it actually?

It's possible, his real name's Thomas so Thom is a tad pretentious

Is it pronounced Thom, or Tom.

If he was Finnish he'd have probably called himself Thuom.
