Björk sounds great on her new single "Nattura." Thom Yorke (that guy from Radiohead) adds smeary, windy way-ambient backing vocals, but the most prominent ingredient is Lightning Bolt drummer Brian Chippendale's dark, heavily tribal percussion.

Now that we've spent most of our V-Day pausing and playing our way through Thom's interview/DJ set at NPR's All Songs Considered, we are, officially, in the mood. And also we are of a mind that you, too, should indulge in this pastime. Mostly because it's just another in this recent string of instances by which Thom not only increasingly appears to be human -- but the most awesome human. He again rhapsodizes about his love for Liars Drum's Not Dead (yay for officially having at least one thing in common with the guy), plays "Kill Bill Vol. 4." from Modeselektor's Hello Mom ("because it is the most full-on club track, complete with the guys talking in the toilet beforehand"), is asked if he still goes clubbing ("It's all over"), and identifies his favorite lyricist (Madvillian i.e. MF Doom, who is "just on the edge of the freestyling thing all the time ... it's like Bob Dylan but without any folk ... it's like the last 50 years never happened ... it takes a lot of courage to knock out these rhymes the way he does").

A simply awesome Thom interview, in which, among other things, we find out just how many people paid the maximum allowed £99.99 for the In Rainbows download: 15! Betcha they remember each one of those 15's name, too. Which would make for the ultimate icebreaker next time you bump into the band hanging out with Britt Daniel at HiFi.

Understandably, jaws are left slacked when Thom turns up via video to ask the "celebrity" panel a question regarding In Rainbows on this British quiz show. All jaws save Lily Allen's, which is quick to start flapping on about how the free download bit was "bad precedent," pooping on the party. She hasn't even delivered yet and already she sounds like my mom.
