Thom & Jonny play Portishead’s ‘The Rip’

Radiohead have soundchecked Portishead’s ‘The Rip’ various times on the first leg of the North American tour in May, but the song from Portishead’s latest album never made it to the setlists.

Colin Greenwood posted a version of the song on Waste Central, performed by Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood. Have a look:

    Amazing. They should really add this to their setlist. It would be really great to hear this when I see them in Toronto!

  • Basith_07

    Ha they’re just as bad as the rest of us on youtube.

    (not bad as in performance but as in doing a cover and posting on interwebs)

  • Brent

    Awesome

  • dano

    third is one of the best albums that I’ve heard since a couple of years, and these guys are just amazing. see you on Daydream

  • YEAH GOODF

    That’s awesome.

    I saw this song’s music video on TV and I didn’t know who it was but I loved it!
    I made sure to wait until the name popped up on screen but my dog distracted me as it happend and I only got the end of it as it zoomed off screen. Somehow my brain caught the word “Portishead” and I typed it on youtube and found it!

    Now one of my fav bands are covering it!

    I keep watching and listening to this video. I really appreciate the fact that they posted it up for us.

    A proper b-side or compilation release for this song would be great

  • teeteetah

    this reminds me of those funny youtube videos with a fan in front of a webcam making a fool out of himself trying to passionately cover his favorite band

  • Antonia
