Radiohead’s Secret Influences

Rolling Stone have posted a listed of Radiohead’s influences on their website. The band have listed and commented on their current readings, favourite bands and films.

Thom Yorke on M.I.A.’s ‘Arular’: “I really try to limit [listening to other people's music while working on new songs], but M.I.A.’s first record really seeped in. M.I.A. takes this complete block and chop repeat, chop repeat, chop, not finished [method].”

Colin Greenwood: “”Well I try to tell everyone, I’m a complete fan of Fleetwood Mac. I put a couple of thing on the webcast and I thought I would hear some mutterings about it. I didn’t say what it was, and they’d say, ‘Wow, that was great, what was it?’ and I would say, ‘Fleetwood Mac, you bastards!’ I’m not a pansy.”
