Did Radiohead Peak In High School? Listen To Two Previously Unreleased Tracks And Be The Judge

Did Radiohead Peak In High School? Listen To Two Previously Unreleased Tracks And Be The Judge

I know I’m in the very tiny minority here, but I just don’t love Radiohead. I find them kind of soggy and toothless and boring — them cats just ain’t my thing. I understand I’m wrong though, that the band is Jesus and can do no wrong, so therefore I am the devil and have been sent here to destroy your happiness or at least get into a mutually-indignant and ultimately futile argument with you at a birthday party.

Rumor Has It Radiohead Will Play At The Occupy Wall Street Protest In NYC Today

There’s this protest going on in New York City’s Financial District called Occupy Wall Street.

In case you haven’t heard, Radiohead has a new album out today. It’s called The King of Limbs. And as if to demonstrate the literalness of the album, the first video out features lead singer Thom Yorke vigorously dancing around in a bowler hate.

We’re almost with Ultragrrl, who says that this video is what you would get if you mixed the aesthetics of Black Swan with A Clockwork Orange. But it seems more likely that Thom Yorke is the King of Limbs and we must all bow our appendages to him now in homage. No? More »

In Honor Of Beavis And Butt-Head’s Return To MTV, Their 10 Best Videos

In Honor Of Beavis And Butt-Head's Return To MTV, Their 10 Best Videos

Mike Judge‘s seminal 90s cartoon about dillholes, Beavis and Butt-Head, is returning to MTV. Even though we’re girls and are supposed to like Daria waaaay more, this development is super exciting. Imagine what these two could do to Katy Perry or Rihanna videos!

At the same time, we have some reservations. After all, that “making fun of the tv” thing seems so 90s (Mystery Science Theatre, anyone?). Plus, could anything ever top the brilliant yet inane analyses of these two dumbasses during the show’s first run? More »
