Behind The Scenes Of Radiohead's Grammy March

Miley Cyrus was not a fan of the performance, since Radiohead were mean to her, but it seems like most folks enjoyed Thom and Jonny's "15 Step" Grammy collaboration with the USC Marching Band. Now we get to see how it came together. The Trojans uploaded an almost nine-minute video that follows the band from figuring out "15 Step"'s rhythm patterns to taking the stage after Gwyneth Paltrow's introduction. It's largely from the P.O.V. of the students themselves, so expect some geeky and excited backstage banter. Also expect a dis of U2's "Get On Your Boots" by a more outspoken member of the ensemble.Continue reading Behind The Scenes Of Radiohead's Grammy March... - Source

Jay-Z + Radiohead = Jaydiohead

Considering the publicity wonders The Grey Album worked for Danger Mouse, we're surprised it's taken so long for someone to cook this one up. (Girl Talk did it for like 30 seconds, so that doesn't count.) Enter the enterprising DJ Minty Fresh Beats, who's mashed instrumental tracks from OK Computer, Kid A, and In Rainbows with various Jigga raps on a set titled Jaydiohead. Download it at jaydiohead.com. The sound you hear in the interim is a million DJs slapping their foreheads at once. - Source

Grizzly Bear Frontman Chats Radiohead Tour With Vindy

Here's what Ed Droste had to say in this week's interview: *It's always been kind of a joke with our band like 'Yeah, we're going to go on tour with Radiohead someday'. And everyone would laugh, like that's the most unrealistic thing ever. And then they released In Rainbows and our booking agent submitted us for it. We didn't hear anything for a long time. Then the next thing we heard they chose us. I guess they don't even take submissions and they pick whomever they want. I still can't believe it. Like I have a weird fear and there's going to be a last minute cancellation. It's surreal.*Read the full piece here.Ed recently shared his summer playlist. - Source

Gnarls Barkley Cover Radiohead

There aren't many voices that can do justice to a Thom Yorke melody. (We saw a bunch of our favorite bands take on the OK Computer movements with OKX to varying results.) But it just so happens Gnarls Barkley have one of the better singers in the game. Gnarls have been covering In Rainbows' "Reckoner" in their live sets lately, and we finally found a YouTube clip -- from their set in San Diego three nights ago (right during Comic Con, no less) -- that does some audio and visual justice to Cee-Lo's take. Not even those introductory cigarette drags can get in the way. - Source
