New Radiohead Video - "A Wee Treap Doon Memori Lane"

When we checked in with Thom last week, he was expressing some sunshiney happiness with a poem of polysyllabic descriptors. But it's a different show at Dead Air Space now that he's getting those incorrigible Vapour Brothers involved. Yes the same crew that strung together those 30-second animated "blips" during the Kid A rollout is now stringing together bizarre home videos of the band in the studio, around a campfire, behind a turntable, recording, costuming, flashing some non sequitur signage -- all set to music, some but not all of which belongs to Radiohead. Thom linked the vid on Dead Air Space and gave it explanation:

This is what happens when you spend too long listening to the same thing over and over again until you just cant tell anymore and you have to do something else instead
Watch it here if you're in the mood to be confused. (via P4K)

yeah this stuff is old for sure. note: "a wee trip down memory lane." there's no need for it to be posted as news, though it is excited that maybe that means they'll have another webcast soon?? otherwise this is all from older webcasts. almost all the posts on dead air space have been recycled stuff for the past couples weeks. probably cos they might be "mixing it" as hinted at in one of the post titles. word.

This is a compilation of webcast and miscellaneous clips from 2002-2003 when they were recording the last album...

why does thom intentionally misspell shit? i love the man, but jesus. is he trying to be funny or ironic or deep or what?

and really, i'm tired of waiting for this fucking album. i'm not even all that excited about it, either. i can't imagine how the fags at atease are dealing with this
