The band who have recently released their brand new album a day earlier than expected have also released a new music video for the song “Lotus Flower”. Radiohead’s new music video is rather strange as it is shot completely in black & white and it only features Thom Yorke dancing in front of what appears to be a warehouse of sorts… the dance itself is rather unnerving. The song mainly follows the same line… no Radiohead alternative rock here, just a steady electro beat and a few variations in-between, but it mostly all concentrates on Thom Yorke’s singing. This is probably Radiohead’s idea of an experiment so maybe their fans will want to check it out, but even they might find it a bit hard to interpret and even like.
Radiohead – Lotus Flower – Music Video:
Radioheads lead singer Thom Yorke is predicting the end of the major labels in the music industry. Way to state the obvious. The rock star urges young musicians to resist the temptation of signing a big record deal as he think all the labels will completely fold in a couple of months. I say they have a couple of years left. He feels so adamantly in warning upcoming artists of the dangers of a record deal that he even sat down for an interview for a new high school textbook where Thom said It will be only a matter of time – months rather than years – before the music business establishment completely folds. (It will be) no great loss to the world.
Radiohead lead singer Thom Yorke is going on tour with his side project and it sounds great. The band is called Atoms for Peace and is comprised of Flea, Nigel Godrich, Mauro Refosco and Joey Waronker, all of whom contributed on Thom?s solo album ?The Eraser?. Thom said ?ok so in April the other band.. that i got together to do the eraser and other stuff u know .. Mauro, Flea, Me, Joey and Nigel is going back out to do some shows in the US.. ending with playing with Coachella. we had too much fun to just leave it there?it has been decided that we call ourselves Atoms For Peace. hope you like the name.. it seemed bleedin’ obvious.? The band will play eight shows before they hit the Coachella Music Festival in April.
