    I did two tracks today. I always thought of myself as a decent Radiohead fan, but I have come to realize that I don't like them enough to listen to this eighteen hours.

    The recordings are on the internet archive -- but if its not kosher to post that, I can ditch the link.

    Anyway, I can understand if the band didn't want this released. Its really just a mix of studio cuts and live recordings, serving as the band's personal notebook, in a way.

    There are some rare cuts (well documented) that stand out, but I don't think I ever want to hear I Promise ever again.

    If you decide to tuck into this, I'd suggest using the document to listen to specific tracks instead of just listening from start to finish.

    Tangential story:

    A long-time friend and I have a running joke about Radiohead. Sporadically one of us will ask the other, "Hey, has anyone checked on Thom Yorke recently?" Why, you ask? Because every time you see a picture of Thom Yorke he looks like he's only further progressed his metamorphosis into an unkempt homeless man who's not entirely sure where he is.

    So, I ask you all, on the heels of this surely unpleasant-for-him news: Has anyone checked on Thom Yorke recently?

    So I like Radiohead quite a lot, so thank you so much for linking this, because I might have not found out about it without this post!

    I think I listened to like 2 hours of it so far and I think I am gonna listen to it for the whole time I am gonna be at work tomorrow. I apparently like listening to random unfinished jamming and stuff like that haha. I am probably gonna post my thoughts here tomorrow.
