Magnet’s Best of 2003: At Ease & Hail to the Thief

Posted on March 14th, 2004.

Some nice news from Magnet Magazine. In their Feb/Mar 2004 issue ateaseweb.com is mentioned as one of the best websites of 2003: “Details to the thief: ateaseweb.com - Whether it’s Ed O’Brien’s diary, the “hidden” Kid A CD booklet or posts detailing the latest Thom Yorke hairstyling techniques, you’ll find it at Radioheads definitive fan site.’” Cool, eh?

Anyway, Radiohead’s also listed in Magnet’s Top 20 albums of 2003 (at number 7): “Like Bob Dylan, Radiohead released a media-dissing documentary just before going electric/electronic. So even though ‘Thief’s’ word-sign cover seems rooted in Dylan’s ‘Subterranean Homesick Blues’ clip (Thom Yorke and Co. having already composed ‘Subterranean Homesick Alien’), this is Radiohead’s ‘Blonde on Blonde’, down to its 14 songs length and cover politics. Honing their dance dread hydraulics, York and his glum troupe weaponize the space between your headphones.”

Also, in this month’s issue of Urb, there is a little mention of Radiohead in the Jaylib cover story. Urb mentions Madlib’s future projects ‘A Radiohead remix’. Yet on Stone Throw Records’ site (label that Madlib’s on), the Radiohead part is replaced with “Yesterdays New Quintet’s revamped Stevie Wonder tribute album”. Well, we’ll see what happens.
