Man, you’d think after so many Phenomenal Video Saturdays I’d just run out of videos to share. But I’m an intrepid researcher, you see. Don’t fear.
However, we’re going back to Radiohead territory this week; actually, more like Thom Yorke solo territory. This is a terrific performance of the hypnotizing “Cymbal Rush” from his album The Eraser, played on the Henry Rollins Show. It’s just so…great. Yorke’s vocals are mesmerizing, and Johnny Greenwood works wonders on the underrated ondes martenot.
Also, I tried the vuvuzela function on the video at about 2:15, and immediately turned it off because vuvuzelas are the sound of Satan pooping. But right after I turned it off, it looked like Thom was laughing at me. So there’s that.
