has christmas come early?


Yet another unexpected Radiohead single has come out (although this one was apparently leaked) in the past two weeks! Called "These Are My Twisted Words", it has these wonderful atmospheric guitar lines that remind me of the arpeggios in Weird Fishes crossed with the gritty feel of Bodysnatchers. I really loved the track, and though it's not necessarily a change of direction from what they did in In Rainbows, the song definitely feels more isolated and lost without losing that particular brand of Radiohead angst that we all love so much. Listening to the song was like driving through a desert in a shoddy car- unsettling, exciting, and desolate.


(by the way, both this song and harry patch are on my blog ipod to the right of this post if you have not yet heard them)
