Thank you to my Patron Paul!!
You have to do the whole Radiohead discography now, there’s just no way around it. We won’t leave you alone til’ you do lol
I'd love to see him react to Fever Ray. That's a straight-up masterpiece right there. Best music Karen ever put out. I actually preordered that album on a whim based on all the hype surrounding it and was immediately awestruck. Ever since it's been one of my alltime favorites. I used to own a t-shirt with the album cover on it and I never once came across anyone who knew what it was. Such a shame.
The rest in order would be fitting I think.
@@_CoasterNinja Everything In It's Right Order.
Well...except Pablo Honey and King of Limbs. He should really spare himself and skip those 2.
Ben Wyner He should listen to Amnesiac, then Pablo Honey, King of Limbs, The Bends, and then AMSP
Myxomatosis starts off with "The mongrel cat came home" and your cat is digging it LOL
Almost thought myxomatosis was that brain thing that cats give people
Honestly the cat just sitting looking over the monitor is giving me so much seratonin it's ridiculous
0:41 The Gloaming (Softly Open Our mouths In The Cold)
2:39 There,There
6:09 I Will (No Mans Land)
7:23 A Punch At The Wedding (No 9x)
9:36 Myxomatosis (Judge, Jury, & And Executioner)
11:28 Scatterbrain (As Dead as Leaves)
13:13 A Wolf At The Door (It Girl. Rag Doll)
A Wolf At the Door always gives me chills. If I'm correct, I think Thom rated it as their darkest song!
Knives Out is darker in a way, but I suppose Wolf is angrier and moodier though
I think Wolf is definitely their angriest song, Knives Out is the darkest, and Fade Out is the most depressing
@@adityasrinivasulu I personally think Pyramid Song and How to Disappear Completely are more depressing than Street Spirits
I was really waiting for a longer and more expressive or exciting reaction in those good songs
and not just 3 minutes without capturing the sounds within the song like "A wolf at the door" or "Myxomatosis" and "Where I End n you begin"
I think NightWalk was more excited on ok computer or inrainbows and Hail to the Thief was less exciting
maybe back then, but now i rate ful stop as the darkest, bleakest and most painful song
Your auto focus is having a heart attack but we love you so you're forgiven
Such a good album! You should do A Moon Shaped Pool or The Bends next. :)
A Moon Shaped Pool!!!
Just do the rest in order I say!
THE BENDS! wanna se his reaction of Fake plastic trees, my iron lung or street spirit
AMSP, definitely...
nice pic profile
There's a bit of unfocused camera footage, but it resolves later on :)
Metaphor for the tracklist
You should use manual focus baby
Do a Moon Shaped Pool next, please.
A moon shaped pool pls
Thanks for doing another RH reaction dude. Hope you do the other albums next The Bends is similar in sound to OK Computer, so I'll think you'll enjoy that too. Amnesiac is the slightly darker, weirder more cinematic version of Kid A, that is a must listen as well. If you want live stuff, definitely check out In Rainbows From The Basement (the extender/longer version), it's recorded wonderfully and show the band off at their peak IMO.
Scatterbrain is my favorite song from HTTT. Gosh my summer of '16 was totally in the mood of this song. Perfection.
if you wanted more of i will, listen to the los angeles version. it's on youtube, check it out and you won't be disappointed
It's on Spotify as well. Just search for "Com Lag: 2+2=5".
There's a pretty early version of it on the Meeting People is Easy DVD. Here you go: th-cam.com/video/e5RXLxoBYQo/w-d-xo.html
thats legitimately the second half of i will
I know someone who described that song as refrigerator buzz. Personally, I don't think it's that bad but it's much MUCH worse than the original, so I wouldn't be making any promises
At this point you might as well do all of them, you're halfway there. I appreciate your reactions because I either appreciate things about songs I didn't notice before, or disagree with you and like the songs you don't like defensively. Either way you're helping cement my love for this amazing band. Keep it up.
I saw Radiohead back in July like 3rd row at the United Center with a couple friends who are much bigger fans than I am (and I love Radiohead). I waited the whole show for them to play There There as it's my favorite song by them and finally they brought out those drums and I knew they were gonna play it. It was the last song of the last encore and I was soooo hyped! No better way to end that show which btw was fucking awesome.
angrypig24 I was there too it was amazing
Seen them three times now, they’ve ended two of the shows with There, There. Truly the best showstopper in their discography.
It is AMAZING live!
angrypig24 you are the Second profile with a PF pic. Im too pink Floyd fan
"...this song kinda creeps me out...I love that." Favorite critique ever. ❤️
Nightwalk, I *beg* that your next Radiohead reaction is for A Moon Shaped Pool. It (at least in my opinion) blows every other RH album out of the water, and is my personal favourite album of all time.
I think it would be better if he left it for the last one. IMO AMSP sums up a lot of the sounds and themes they’ve learned through their career but in a way more elegant and slow way than any other record of theirs. I’d say he does Amnesiac next then Bends and finally AMSP (cause Pablo Honey doesn’t really count lol).
@@asgardandres3251 did you just forget king of the limbs
@@sauertrout456 didn't he reacted to that one yet? oops, my bad.
Needs to do Amnesiac too
I'd be happy with either A Moon Shaped Pool, Amnesiac or The Bends. I'm pretty sure he is going to react to all of them eventually.
This is gonna be good
The Gloaming has become a bit of a meme among Radiohead fans, because it's a song that nobody really likes but they still play it at basically every show. It's been hinted that it's Thom's favorite.
Pelle Koopman compared to its live version, the album version is a little lackluster tbh
The live version with that bass is awesome tho
@@elcansler A lot of songs from "Hail to the thief " and "Amnesiac" are better live.
But Radiohead fans love it though ?
I love it!
"this song kinda creeps me out... i love that"
lmao that's so relatable
Punch at a Wedding, underrated masterpiece.
i was there it wasn't like that
Confirm, masterpiece
it was one of my favorites upon first listen but it just shrunk on me over time. i just think the lyrics are super petty and the song doesn’t progress enough.
Approved comment.
Yeah, you need to do The Bends. It basically destroyed grunge. In an amazing way.
If you want more I Will, look up the LA version and also listen to Amnesiac. The song "Like Spinning Plates" is a reversed version of the version of I Will they recorded for Kid A.
Radiohead also thought something more could have been done with "I Will" so they figured out how to play it backwards, and turned it into a song called "Like Spinning Plates" on Amnesiac. Even the vocal line has an effect that makes it sound like he's singing backwards. But then there's a live piano version that is beautiful as well.
amnesiac!!!! the jazziest radiohead album and one of their best
Coming back to this album Scatterbrain has become one of my absolute favorites.
I Will is technically the sequel to Like Spinning Plates from Amnesiac. Listening to them back to back is a treat!
What's impressive about Myxomatosis is that a guitar, bass, and synth all play in unison throughout the whole song to create that sound!
Funnily enough, The Gloaming is my mom's fav song from the album
A sequel? I would call it a prequel, but anyways, we were given Like Spinning Plates first, so you're actually right lmao
About Myxomatosis... man, that sound is soooooo satisfying, oh my gosh
WHAT? LMFAO would love to know your mom's favorite songs, she must have a unique (and NICE) taste for music!
Cheers from Brazil, man!
@@ggnegrao My mom's favs from the album are Sit Down. Stand Up, Backdrifts, The Gloaming, Myxomatosis, and A Wolf At The Door
My dad's favs are Where I End And You Begin, There There, A Punchup At A Wedding, and Myxomatosis
@@S_E_R_ Wow, that's amazing! I couldn't pick any songs from this album, it's one of my favs, but if I had a gun against my head, I probably would say that There There, Myxomatosis and 2+2=5 are absolute highlights. This album give me chills every single time I listen to it (almost daily!)
@@S_E_R_ sad.
My mom doesn't like Radiohead.
Whenever I play it, my mom always ask me "what is this weird song? Why do you listen to weird music?"
It makes me sad.
Never close main kaft so fast.
Pd: I recommend you the bends, is really good
Pd: we need a AMSP reaction
Pd: If you’re gonna react to The king of limbs, I think you’ll prefer From The Basement versión.
Thanks for the video :D
Maybe the Next album Must be the bends 😅
I love your emotion !!
Right.. So when's The Bends reaction coming?
One of their earlier, more straightforward offerings but achingly beautiful throughout.
*A Punch Up At A Wedding* And *A Wolf At The Door* 💜💜💜
“ The song kind of creeps me out… I love that” 😂
People do sleep on Scatterbrain which is quite disappointing...
It was my immediate favourite when I first listened to the album, still right up there although Wolf at the Door is just a masterpiece honestly. Them being both next to each other is a great one-two punch.
u gotta react to remain in light by talking heads
YES
SIMMMM
Wait it's that band who made this song where Radiohead took their name from
Yep, this album is a damn masterpiece.
9:07 "nothing wrong with super long songs"
> 5 minutes
Boi, i cant wait till you hear the likes of Suppers ready, octavarium, close to the edge, visions,
Whoa, I would definitely watch it! Any prog album, maybe?
Gates of Delirium!
He looks so bored :(
Can - Halleluhwah
Mirror reaper react
Some consider Punch-up at a wedding to be one of their worst. I really like it though.
Do AMSP next:))
Teddyman it's honestly in my top 10 and I'm Rainbows is my favorite album
I love drunken punchup
It's one of my favourite ones.
People surely can't have seriously listened to Pablo Honey and all its outtakes and yet consider Punch-Up one of their worst? What are they on? Besides which it's a good song anyway, not even close to among their worst.
Its one of my favorite RH songs period
There, there is probably my favorite radiohead song
Thom Yorke 🅱️e rap god on A Wolf At The Door 👺👺👺. Also you should listen to the album Plum by Wand, you shall like it.
he hasnt payied atention coz he didnt use headphones :(
A Moon Shaped Pool next! I would describe it as a mix between In Rainbows and Kid A. Or maybe White Pony if you haven’t already listened to it, it has a similar spacey vibe.
White pony is bae
That is the perfect description actually.
wow, thank you for reacting to my favorite album of all time, i loved that your reactions remind me of the first time i listened to it
It’s impossible not to like “there, there” right on the first 10 seconds. It’s that good.
Wolf at the Door has always been one of my favourite Radiohead songs. It has its strengths in beauty and anger at the same time. It's also a bit sad, and the humming part reminds me of Street Spirit's slavonic part before the ending. There's no surprises in the song's arrangements and they decided to keep it simple with a dark pinch of black. Great song and pretty good album I think.
One other note, Thom's voice in the chorus of Myxomatosis sounds like that because he's doing a deep octave unison in the background, but he's growling the words more than singing them haha quite an unusual (and unusually low!) vocal from Thom!
9:37 have to appreciate the cat during myxomatosis
Your three favourites are literally the 3 songs I love the most on this album damn you're a man of taste
I Love your reaction videos. You analyze them very well. There There is a personal favorite also. I can’t wait to see your reactions to more Radiohead!
The Gloaming indeed is bizarre and awesome live
Nice reaction to my favorite album!!
My top 3 songs would be: A wolf at the door, Sit down stand up and Where i end and you begin
Now you should do Amnesiac :)
Queens of the Stone Age - Rated R... gotta be done. Tis a banger
I knowwwww!! He has to
As soon as the airy ambient guitar starts in There There, it turns into a 1000/10 song. And the lyrics “We are accidents waiting, waiting to happen” couldn’t be more true. We are destroying society, the emvironment, and everything we ever had, and I feel like Thom’s lyrics go over that topic a lot. I might be wrong(pun totally intended) on that, but that’s how it feels to me.
Edit: A Punch Up at a Wedding is my favorite on the album because it’s more of a jam song where it’s drawn out so long because the band was just jamming, and I find it so groovy that I would definitely listen to it for 5 minutes. Also, A Wolf at the Door is a very depressing song, and it seems to depict hopelessness and surrendering to the offender, giving everything you ever loved to them.
I'm really happy to see that you enjoyed all of the album, the highlights for me are: 2+2=5, Sail To The Moon, Go To Sleep, The Gloaming, There There and obviously my favorite Radiohead song MYXOMATOSIS.
The Gloaming is kinda nice, but just like Backdrifts it feels like filler to me in context with the album. Not as good as the others.
There There's main guitar and bass line is amazing definitely one of Radiohead's best, and one of their perfect songs IMO
I Will's vocals give me chills every time. There is also a longer version of it that I think you can find on TH-cam!
A Punchup At A Wedding is not my favorite but it's a bop still IMO.
Myxomatosis is frickin weird and I love it especially the drums and the synth
Scatterbrain is absolutely lovely. Just takes me to another world. So beautiful and hypnotic.
FLAN IN THE FACE FLAN IN THE FACE
Don't you dare talk shit about Backdrifts!!!
It's one of the best songs on the album, never fails to make me dance like a weirdo.
We think pretty much the same. A Wolf at the Door is such a perfect ending, and Scatterbrain's vocals are so good
Tbh, the only filler song in this album imo is “go to sleep”.
The only flaw “The Gloaming” has is not being the opener, since I feel like it sounds like an opener. It perfectly encompasses the feeling of urgency to be displayed throughout the album. 2+2=5 is already a fantastic opener, but I feel like it’d still hold up in any other spot in the album
And Backdrifts is just flat out amazing for me...one of their best songs imo.
@@arcanemaster8722 I agree with all you said except go to sleep, Thom's "We don't want the loonies taking over, TIPTOE AROUND TIIIEEE HUM DOOOOOOOWN!" always gives me chills
I really do not like Backdrifts, personally. Just doesn't work very well IMO. But then again I also abhor The National Anthem so don't worry about my opinion lmao
Check out King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King, I promise amazement, terror and joy
Probably won't do it because it's not on spotify
King Crimson is amazing and I can't help but think they're shooting themselves in the foot not making their music more accessible...
It's on pornhub tho
well, I heard that this year, it's finally going to be on spotify:)
It’s on spotify now
¡HAIL TO THE CAT! Pls react to Amnesiac or AMSP
yeeeeesssss
Punchup at a wedding is one of the most underrated Radiohead songs. Simply amazing
Love these videos. Its like reliving my first time listening to some of my favs. I recommend Nine Inch Nails - Downward Spiral
Before finishing, I predict you’d love There There, I Will, and Punch Up.
Edit - I knew you’d enjoy the album after all. Tbh, I’d go A Moon Shaped Pool next. I know that most fans think it’ll take the magic out of their other stuff, but it’s just that good! It’s also the first album I listened to from them and it sold me instantly.
I’m just going to continue to hype up Decks Dark and Identikit because they’re great.
We have the same 3 favorites on this album! Hail to the Thief is so underrated. It has some of their all time best songs on it, and these tracks really explode live.
This is my favorite album.
Now, please react to The Bends man. Based on your music taste, i think you would like it.
My second favorite Radiohead album, after In Rainbows. Many people say that it's a bit of a frankenstein (even the band themselves) but I just adore it. Really evolved songwriting and it combines very well the organic and the electronic.
Great reaction, I love watching you pal.
One recomendation: Do A Moon Shaped Pool next please, it's an amazing album, my favorite of the 2010s.
One question: What do you think of The Beatles? Have you listened to their albums? Especially stuff like Revolver or Sgt Peppers.
It would be nice to see you react to those albums if you haven't listened to them, they're pretty good even by today's standards.
Heard the album fully for the first time this morning, listened to it 4 times since and let me tell you, it gets better every time
please do a video reacting to Pixies Doolittle album
YES
edit: or surfer rosa or come on pilgrim
Bossanova is their best
YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND
I love all their albums, but my favorite is the Doolittle
YES!
SIMMM
Please keep it up. Ignore the senselessly negative comments.
Scatterbrain is by far Radiohead’s most underrated song I will back that up until I die
White pony or koi no yokan next
You will like There, There. It’s amazing live!
"Just cause you feel it, doesn't mean it's there"... It's my mantra when it comes to my greatest heartbreak.
Innerspeaker! you need to start tame impala! Their my third favorite next to Muse and Radiohead
This is my favourite nirvana album and definitely one of my favourite albums of all time!!!🖤🖤🖤
It's crazy how you like their songs from the first listen. It only gets better ...
I'd love to see you react to a whole live show. Actually to two live show : one from the Kid A era, and another one from their latest tour, to see how they evolve through the time. Please consider this.
Hey, forget the angry comments. I’m not an enabler but you are doing a great job and I love your take on this album. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much!
11:02 Cat enjoys myxomatosis like I did.
Nice to see someone else appreciate this album as much as I always have.
There There it is beautiful !!!!
I don’t know why I’m always shocked your faves are my faves
>"i feel like i will could be something more." -i hugely reccomend listening to "like spinning plates" from amnesiac because theyre like the same melody.
This whole album is criminally underrated and I don't know why. All I've heard is that it's "inconsistent" but like what? All the songs have a dirty rock sound with a lot of creepy piano and synths, and none of the songs are outliers in quality in my opinion. I think people just see it's between Kid A and In Rainbows and assume it must be one of the "bad" Radiohead albums. Very sad.
We suck young blood is absolutely underrated. Creepy but fucking awesome.
Scatterbrain is my favorite vocal on the album
THERE THERE IS FUCKING AMAZING. The music video for this song needs a 4k upload also.
check John frusciante's The Empyrean!!
same! there there is my favorite song of httt. it's easily on my top 10 rh songs. though many songs on this album kills me. a genuine masterpiece
Thom Yorke later released an alternate track listing after people complained about the length. He cut Backdrifts, We suck young blood,
I will, and A punch up at a wedding.
Alternate Track Listing
1. There There
2. The Gloaming
3. Sail to the Moon
4. Sit Down. Stand Up.
5. Go to Sleep
6. Where I End and You Begin
7. Scatterbrain
8. 2+2=5
9. Myxomatosis
10. A Wolf at the Door
I loved part two! Always fun to listen to favorite albums with new fans. Do Lateralus by Tool!
I've been really enjoying these first listen's of the band. Hoping you do AMSP next but there is no wrong. With how often you mention layering and mixing I feel like you may actually like The King of Limbs which is universally the most controversial album by them. I also think the album version is better than the In The Basement version but most people think the live version is more accessible, I just think it loses some of the character/concept. Excited to see which you go to next.
As far as other bands go, I think it'd be cool to see you do a first listen to albums like Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear or All Hour Cymbals by Yeasayer.
Please do glasto 2003 full show reaction I beg! Also the live version of the gloaming is quite different to the studio version, with this groovy bass line in the chorus. Something to definitely check out oh and congrats on putting out another amazing vid!
Thom Yorke really do be spitting bars in A Wolf At The Door
Next album: Amnesiac, please!! You will love Pyramid Song, Knives Out and Life in a Glasshouse, such great, underrated classics.
About "The Gloaming": since Kid A, Radiohead has been influenced by experimental electronic musicians, such as IDM (Intelligent Dance Music, not to be confused with EDM) artists like Aphex Twin, Autechre and Boards of Canada. These artists were all making music like "Everything in Its Right Place", "Kid A" and "The Gloaming" since the 1990s. Also, there's a whole subgenre called glitch music, which Oval basically invented it in the 90s. Their album 94Diskont is one of the trippiest albums ever.
Also, "There, There" and "Optimistic" were influenced by 70s krautrock band Can, who made a lot of songs using tribal drums (their drummer is one of the best drummers I know of, he was called a "human metronome") and groovy interplaying guitar and bass, usually with an atmospheric keyboard in the background (or even foreground at times). Very peculiar sound (Ege Bamyasi is their best album, followed by Tago Mago and Future Days). Anyway, I'm just pointing out some of Radiohead references. Radiohead actually covered one of Can's songs in at least one live show. This song they covered is called "Thief".
Scatterbrain is my fav tbh
I just stated seeing these videos and I feel like you need to listen to Amnesiac. You may be one of the few people that actually really likes the album. Amnesiac is my favorite Radiohead album and the things you seem to like about certain tracks in Hail to the Thief is what really gets me into Amnesiac.
I'm strange. Amnesiac is my favorite album. BUT my favorite Radiohead song is Just. I think Just is the best pop rock song that sums up the 90s whole mood perfectly.
It's quite puzzling he hasn't even considered/mentioned The Bends yet. Maybe the best pop-album of the 90s.
POP????!!!
@@user-yw2qz4fp9f Yeah, several great classic pop songs on that album.
How the fuck are you considering it pop
Yeah I know right. I just commented requesting he listen to it.
There There is literally the best running tune ever
They did expand on "I Will" earlier in one of their albums. Its called Like Spinning Plates from Amnesiac. You should check it out. You will be blown away by how different those two songs are.
I used to work at a record store and customers always asked me to describe this album. I would always say that it feels like I’m listening to a Greatest Hits of Radiohead. It has everything. I have a 3-way tie between this, Kid A and OK Computer. This was probably them at the very peak Radiohead. I saw this Live and Kid A tour as well.
MUST. WATCH. GLOAMING. LIVE. The groovy bass line!
Another great video! You totally have to check out Amnesiac next - it’s so texturally loaded.
I actually love scatterbrain
There’s a lot of albums outside of Radiohead you could also do here:
Talking Heads- “Remain in light”
Kate Bush- “the dreaming” and “hounds of love”
Björk- “post” and “homogenic”
Animal Collective- “strawberry jam”
The Avalanches- “since I left you”
Beck- “odelay”
The flaming lips- “yoshimj battles the pink robots” and “the soft bulletin”
I could go on these are all incredible albums
The gloaming is Thom’s favorite song on this album. If you see the basement version you will see why
There is actually a story behind I Will related to a song on Amnesiac called "Like Spinning Plates". Here is a little bit about it:
"Like Spinning Plates" was born out of frustration over an electronic version of "I Will" from the Kid A sessions… Not knowing what to do with [the "dodgy Kraftwerk version"], someone had the idea to reverse it and played it backwards… The reversed backing with its eerie pulse was apparently way more exciting than the ill-fated forward recording, and Thom was also hearing a melody in parts of his reversed vocal of "I Will", which inspired him to write something he could sing over this recording. He went to his notebooks, pieced a set of lyrics together (perhaps using the "cut up lines pulled out of a top hat" method again), thereby creating a new song, "Like Spinning Plates".
Edit: Here is in example th-cam.com/video/ME_W1uKfhJI/w-d-xo.html
