yes!

It’s so lovely! I’m very happy they reworked it from “A Walk Down the Staircase.”

awesome!

this song sounds amazing, sounds like a more polished, less raw TKOL. Also Ed o’brien seems to have taking a step back to his 90s look, which I’m in full support of!

Go here and check track #5. It’s been kicking around for a bit now

amazing. I hope they release a studio version

This is great! Really wasn’t expecting it. Love Johnny’s guitar part in the outro.

finally… Those radiohead tunes are back T_T

This is 5 minutes of sheer tedium. What has happened to these guys? Why are they obsessed with taking the human element out of their music? They used to make music that moved me but now it’s like listening to a computer.

I’m starting to think it’s Nigel Godrich’s fault. Everything he touches turns to sludge and all of Radiohead’s recent batch of music is compressed, over-processed, metronomic fluff, with the possible exceptions of Twisted Words and Supercollider, the only two tracks I can stand.

I respect them for trying something else with their music but I wish they weren’t doing it. It saddens me that I can no longer relate to their music but these things happen. Lots of other people seem to like it.

So we’ve had the album and a two-track vinyl release, we’ve got the remix series coming from next month, and now new material in the From The Basement sessions…. Interesting period of activity for the band. Normally it’s three years of being under the radar followed by an album/tour, then disappearing off the grid again. At least this keeps us on our toes. And of course the material’s good too.

one more . for the beauty to be more immense now . a real KING .

love .

and 11 beautiful new tracks in our hearts . tkol / butcher/collider / staircase .
i love Clive Deamer as well ! ! i used to make this comment every time i was watching him perform and also the way he moves and feel the music . yes ! ! . . . . . . man . . . . i wish rd would be my friends . i hope they have enough beautiful people around that s all i want to say .

love . what a beautiful track [ on my 5th time over it as we speak ] . leaving now . . . gotta press play again .

ps : LOVE .

ps 2 : i am repeating this comment on everywhere . i want to be heard how happy a human being can be thanks to the music and the arts .

ps [ 3 ? ] : i loved the IR basement , but this one I NEED AN OFFICIAL DVD OR LIVE ALBUM OUT OF IT ! ! pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Agree with parts of every comment here.

My enjoyment for Thom & Ed’s hairdo, and the lighting….

Yeah… man, play some hardcore instruments sometimes, time to inject some testosterone & adrenaline in “some” of your music.

It is definitely time to start up all the crazy TKOL theories once again. You have to think that some answers are going to be revealed here shortly. A TKOL Q&A would sure be nice and you have to think a World Tour will be announced as well.

I wonder if they will perform additional new songs live at each show (or one every few shows deal) and that would be a way they bring the much talked about additional songs.

levedad levedad . ahgrrrrrrrr ! ! !

becoming more simple and low profile [ even when this is not the real case ] its more genius than genius . just remember that .

they want to dance and feel the rhythm in their blood cells . isn t that genius ? specially at their ages ? it is a real challenge and a real step further the ” normal ” adult life . but at the same time having a ” normal ” adult life . not sure how to explain this .

for me this is absolutely ” out ” of the normal . everyone can do the other stuff . but not too many can do this levedad . i see it that way . it would be so easy just to repeat what they did b4 on the albums ” you like ” . this is more lot more challenging . just sharing how much ‘ I ” enjoy it .

peace and dance .

Yes! Thanks a bunch, Kevin!

I remember hearing this live and thought that is not a very imaginative song as it basically used the same chords as Reckoner, as he evidently even admits while performing “As you may have noticed I’ve only got one trick on the guitar now.”

But what they have done with the song in the Basement version is just bloody brilliant! I can not WAIT for the FTB sessions!!!

Have you truely heard everything in this album yet?
You will need a good pair of headphones and a good musical ear to hear everything but it’s there.

//// the one who broke this spell\\

this is from ” creep ” at mortigi tempo ” .

They are incredible muscians indeed, I am not saying the opposite, but this time, they just didnt make it for me. And its fair enough, they are humans afeter all.

i am not worried and didn t really mean that about you , but in general . i posted that because i thought it was another view of the situation . it was from a person at mortigi tempo posting that . i thought it was interesting

haha people who criticise Radiohead make me laugh…out loud…very hard.

i would totally buy and love TAMTW / staircase on vinyl . [ even when i will have to skip the rmxs which i would buy them if all together on one release. alla LIARS SISTERWORLD RMXS ? ] . plus i would totally buy the ty spitting feathers ep on vinyl . fuzzzzzzz fuck i love releases .

Animal really good stuff

12 tkol songs . beauty . tamtw / sc / butcher / staircase / tkol /
its a great deal even if you have to buy separate . a great fucking beautiful great dream/deal .

Yeah:
“….the band decided to perform Supercollider ..and two brand new tracks, ‘Daily Mail’ and ‘Staircase’.”

Wohhoo i´m looking forward to this

Colin’s been listening to John Maus lately, as indicated from his recent playlist. Sounds like they’ve all taken some influence from Mr. Maus. I like this track.

same chords as reckoner? What the hell are you talking about. He meant the way he was playing guitar, when he said that.

The energy this performance created – it’s so intense and alive. Clive Deamer added a lot too – amazing -2 drummers! I can’t wait to see them perform the whole king of limbs and any extras. This is happening now – we are here to experience this. I think the reason some people seem to be upset is because they don’t normally listen to similar kind of music. For those anti-electronic out there – maybe you should try to dive into some of this music – maybe you could even try to understand it? What makes a guitar more human than a synthesizer? What makes acoustic noises more human than a computer sound? What IS more human? This performance defines what I’d like to see from humans lately, but where I rest – it’s obsolete.

Very, very disappointed.

Not a patch on A Walk Down The Staircase.

Open The Floodgates / Big Boots / Lift sound great from that playlist shared by Jon Lovitz.

OMG!That was awesome!!!really!!!So happy to see you guys together!!!

Yes, the best part is to see them all playing together again!

Wow. I could listen to that outro for hours. Jonnys lead makes this tune

Better than much of TKOL perhaps b/c the drums aren’t mixed so loud

Said it before and I’ll say it again, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the new direction in which the band is heading.

All the haters should stick to the band’s back catalogue and stop hating on their new material.

lyrics:

walk down the staircase
magnetic pull
back to the other place
where i cannot go
i’m sending a chopper
to steal you away

my pot is full
let me take control
let me take control
my pot is full
secrets to be told
secrets to be told

i have always
and always will

my pot is full
let me take control
let me take control
my pot is full
secrets to be told
secrets to be told

I just can’t get over how beautiful the camera work in this video, the glimmers and reflections of instruments, Thom’s hair….. and you can hear the subtle audio of drums and guitar…, sigh…..

Wow, that was damn good. It should of been on the Album.

This song is amazing I’m tired of this assholes
Complaining, if you want radiohead to sound like In Rainbows,HHTT,kid. A or Ok Computer why don’t you just go listen to those records instead, its been done before move on or shut up, this does not sound like anything they did before prior King of Limbs and I heard every record including b sides and unreleased material. I guess this is the new generation of idiots like the old one that complained about the Beatles when they released the White Album or Sargent Peppers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbwNnJ7UMek

a little like the inception OST song 528491 . near the beginning.

wht was this not on the album and a song like feral was ???????????????????????

I made an album cover for the entire King Of Limbs From The Basement set and attached it to the mp3, if you want it.

@Xian

Haha… I though Ed looked bored…

I think I prefered the song this derived from:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT1VYB_lNEU

Man, they really are shooting for just average lately.

This is really nice. Wish this had appeared on TKOL (and that’s no insult to TKOL, which I love)…but this tune, even on first listen, seems a lot more layered & technical, along lines with ‘…twisted words’.

When/where was this played before? It was mentioned above that this is a reworking of ‘A Walk Down the Staircase’ and/or ‘CNTRL’…do these songs/versions exist somewhere? Anyone have links?

I’m starting to think I’m the exception with Radiohead fans these days. I love tkol, the only tracks I get bored with are feral and Morning, Mr. Magpie. I like both songs, but they run on too long for me. Codex, Lotus Flower, and The Butcher more than make up for what the album lacks in my opinion. And yes I know The Butcher wasn’t on the official album. I’m with the others; from the basement for In rainbows was awesome – still watch it on youtube to this day, I hope Radiohead releases a dvd or something similar for the new session. They have always been better live than on their albums, for me. I have seen them thrice now and expect to see them a fourth time. The only problem I have with them is they never realesed an album version of Big Boots. I have given up on that ever coming to fruition.

I’m sure it’s just this song, Ed doesn’t have much to do with. The camera should focus on the ones playing instruments at the moment.

@AK
I can agree with a few things you mentioned. For example I know that I love all Radiohead songs no matter what, but I don’t think that Nigel Godrich has ruined Radiohead. Thay made their best albums with him and now all the sudden he is the one how mess up everything?! I don’t think so.

By the way everyone who is thinking about why did they not releasled this song or The Daily Mail on TKOL should remember what the band said TKOL and The Butcher were made under the TKOL session plus they had a lot of unfinished songs. After TKOL they decided to finish them.

Ed is playing some of the reverby-shimmery-trumpet sounding guitar. Jonny plays one of those parts, then goes into the arpeggios and Ed takes over.

I dearly hope this is just experimenting with a new sound and not bringing another person in to keep tha band together like the beatles did with Billy Preston.Just an observation.Good track all the same.
