After Radiohead’s “Lotus Flower” video, the world obviously needed more of Thom Yorke’s freakily rubber-limbed dancing. And now we’ve got some of it in director Garth Jennings‘s new video for “Ingenue,” a song from Amok, the debut album of Yorke’s new band Atoms For Peace. In the clip, Yorke and contemporary dancer Fukiko Takase, in identical old-timey suits and ponytails, get down in an empty theater. This guy is, as ever, just fun to watch. Have fun turning this one into gifs; it’s below.
Amok is out now on XL.

Ah hell. How am I supposed to consentrate at work when videos like this pop up?? Now all I wanna do is rubber limb my way around the office to this song…
GENIUS.
*Ingenious :D
HA! Of course!
Looks like the trolls are busy. Gotta hand it to them, takes a lot of dedication to go in and negative vote certain people over and over. That kind of dedication deserves respect. Then again, no. It doesn’t. AT ALL.
Don’t worry, I’m going to just blanket this page with upvotes to counteract the serial downvoter(s?). It’s a war of the thumbs!
Nice suit.
Bono is so pissed off right now that he wasn’t invited to this dance party.
Wait, which one is Thom Yorke?! It’s hard to tell lol
Sorry.
Both of them! the video caused a rift in time and the alternate thom from another universe appear, of which he said “dance of?”
That comment made no sense, for that I am sorry.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
BNMV
Sadly I don’t think the gifs/everything else will ever beat the edit someone did of thom spastically shooting justin bieber to death. :(((
Blink and you miss it: Thom Yorke smiling
definitely my favorite song on this record. anyone else?
on my first listen through this was the first song I wanted to go back to. So, yes…for now.
Still soaking it in, but yes. A definite highlight for me.
I’m trying to counter all the incongrous -1s you get. Wish me luck.
I’m doing the same with your’s, and any other randomly negative votes
Man, these trolls don’t even like troll gifs
So, yeah, a Thom York dance-off is just a entertaining as it sounds.
All the sudden I thought, “She must be pretty short…”
The only thing that could make this better (or worse..?) is a little bit o’ this in the background
Or maybe even this…
I wonder how much Thom had to pay the Ghostland Observatory dude to be in this.
Thom demonstrates once again that the line between “genius” and “total nutter” is a fine one indeed.
When was the last time someone saw Thom Yorke give a fuck?
Although Thom is kinda pioneering it groups like Dutch Uncles are doing this dance video thing now too.

Do you guys think, that when Pablo Honey was coming out, that Thom thought he’d one day be choreographed dance videos? I can dig it.
Lol. They need to make a meme out of this-FAST!
Thom Yorke is pure eye candy. He needs to lose the chick.
anyone knows who is the choreographer behind this excellent thing?
looks like the work of Wayne Mcgregor.
cut the crap yorke. get out your guitar and play. enough bleepy music, with you droning over the top of it.
Waittt… Is Thom Yorke our David Byrne?
