Holy shit. Thank Darwin I was born on the same planet as this band. Scotch Mist seems to have unlocked the album for me, somehow.

For me, there is nothing better than a highly experimental artist who produces a very mainstream album. You get the best of both worlds. it is my favorite of Radiohead’s albums, in the same way Peter Gabriel’s “So” is my favorite of his albums.

The film was sort of social commentary, too. Like Big Brother stuff, CCTV, and such. Plus, I've always liked the look of low resolution digital video work that's somewhat or a lot noisy. Used in the right context it's really effective for adding atmosphere and extra dimension. Yeah, Jaymis, I hear you with the low-end tech comments. The film was sort of social commentary, too.

Regarding Radiohead covers, there’s quite a few interesting albums out there.

- Radiodread (OK Computer in reggae)
- Exit music (various covers, great names)
- Me and this army (hip hop a cappelas meet Rdhd)
- OK X (but it’s really bad IMHO)

I'm historically a huge Radiohead fan - they were my most loved band all though high school - but I've found myself listening less and less each year. I prepurchased In Rainbows and gave them some quids for it, listened once and didn't really return to it, until the other night when I discovered Scotch Mist, which really make the whole thing click for me. As a filmmaker who's trying to capture the meanderings of a rock band it's fantastic to watch, and especially how they've used low-end tech and different camera resolutions, formats, lenses etc. and still produced a coherent work from it all.

That's all I listened to. Phew! Glad that's over. But I loved Scotch Mist, and to be honest, I really liked the live version of the tunes better than the CD versions. Brought back memories of seeing Radiohead at Suffolk Downs Racetrack in East Boston, Massachusetts for the Kid A tour. Just a phenomenal show.

I don't know anyone who covers Radiohead songs; I do know a lot of people who steal little chord sequence fragments, the way people used to do with the Beatles.
