>>69774774
>and he fucking left her
Where is it established that he left her, and not the other way around? Chances are when she found out she had cancer, she probably wanted a drastic life change.

Maybe it was her idea because she knew it was the only way he could let her go.

Musicians are people, they change their views just like anyone else. Something you wrote before can take on a new meaning later for you just the same as someone else hearing the song might read their own meaning in it. There isn't "one true meaning" behind any song, it's all an evolution of perceptions.

>>69778097
It's a new version actually. For instance, the chord which accompanies the lyrics "just don't leave" is a minor chord, whereas it used to be a major chord.

He obviously knew his wife had cancer. It's a song about his wife. Why would he choose to change it in this way? Or are you of the opinion that art can't acquire new meanings when recreated in new contexts?

You're not that smart.

Every album up to TKOL is just Thom taking whatever jazz or electronic music he was listening to that week and turning it into alt rock
It's great but it's hardly the most original thing in the world whereas TKOL is the first album where they took influences (Burial, Flying Lotus, Four Tet) and combined them with what they knew to create an album and a style that was genuinely unprecedented and original. Not to mention the deliberate decision to cap it at 8 tracks when they could have easily thrown Supercollider or Staircase on it makes it a short but dense experience meant for repeated listens, something other artists should take note of

short people are so hateful and underhanded. it's because other people tower over them, it's intimidating. thus they get extremely insecure and defensive

then the rejection from women comes and oh boy you've got a little monster

as someone who is 6'4" i am an expert on such things. they usually lash out at the most physically perfect guy around. like they're in manlet prison or something

TKoL is their best album and if you think that's a meme opinion you should fuck off

>>69780895
Separator is the peak of Tomas York's career

He's always been a nasty piece of work

A very damaged man. You would be if you looked like he does. His childhood/adolescence must have been fucking awful

>>69775273
Thom gets cancer too and writes the album on his death bed

Then all his children die and he rewrites the album hours before his own end

All the band members get depressed and hang themselves soon after recording

Guys it's not really cool to speculate about the intimacies of a recently dead woman's marriage break up.

You know nothing about them as people so try sorting out your own life instead :)

Tbf we don't know if he left her or if she left him. In fact in their statement they said it was an amicable split.

That in all fairness is pretty shitty thing to do.

I'm wondering if this is also why he randomly started crying after singing Nude at one of the shows a few months back.

man Ful Stop was written in 2012. most of the AMSP songs and their lyrics already existed way before this.

honestly the only songs that can be attributed to Rachel's death are Daydreaming and True Love Waits

She did it to herself

>>69780325
you nailed it, I love TKOL. AMSP is one of their best as well but it's kinda frustrating how it basically won everyone back when the previous album is almost as good.

More cliched than ever, The King of Limbs is mostly a rhythmic affair, with the beats prevailing over the rest. Bloom is brainy for the sake of being brainy: convoluted rhythm, angst-filled droning vocals, a bit of minimalist keyboards and sleepy trumpet wails. Morning Mr Magpie puts the project into a different light: this is mood music made out of pretentious ideas. The single Lotus Flower ventures into disco territory but it ends up sounding like a bad version of synth-pop of the 1980s. But that's still better than no rhythm at all: the slow slow slow piano ballad Codex is simply devoid of real music: it's just somebody strumming a piano and crooning a trite melody. And Give Up The Ghost it's not even that: just a hippie-style litany repeated over and over again. The ambition of these songs is often hilarious. Yorke's insipid and narcotized singing certainly does not help rescue the rest.
It is not completely surprising that the results improve dramatically when Yorke does not sing. The claustrophobic tension of Feral is driven by the contrast between the almost silent soundscape and the frantic twitching of the beats (and the ghostly Middle-Eastern moves). Yorke merely moans in Little By Little, one of Radiohead's most touching pop moments, sculpted by hazy guitar and sitar tones.
Radiohead's career has been one long bluff and it gets harder and harder for them to disguise it. The best thing about this album is that it's concise. Little By Little and Feral would have made a great EP.

I have the whole TKOL From The Basement on my computer right next to the original, I love them both but I see them as different albums. From The Basement brings out the crazy rock songs in tracks like Bloom and Feral and includes Supercollider and Staircase which kick ass but it also compromises the short length and the production and really most of what makes TKOL so special imo. They're both great but people say FTB is better a lot and that seems a little weird to me
