Nico and Andrew finally met in person for the first time earlier this month! Andrew flew to London, and together they traveled to Oxford to see the "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET" Exhibit. We recorded this episode live in my hotel room using phones so, sorry about the quality. OH! Also! We found the street where the man in the Just video laid down. Andrew re-created it with Nico's Help. Good times, good times. Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to http...
The reasoning behind all of the Amnesiac blips all come together in this partially animated video and it feels like the boys did accidental homework! watch along with us at vimeo.com/headfullofradio Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
A very unsettling music video that combines two songs - we suggest you listen to this early in the morning, or just listen to how we end up feeling weird and confused by it. watch it with us at vimeo.com/headfullofradio
"It gets certain points for just being stylistically cool and different and enjoyable, but I think there's part of it that is a little bit not for me?" Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
We detangle the backwards/forwards recording of the song, and also listen to what the song sounds like backwards, or forwards? We listen to them both ways. Our heads are spinning, at this point.
Nico: "At First was like, 'yeah you've got me' and now it's like, "well i don't know if you've kept me.' Like a distorted version of being in a meditation lounge". Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
Nico loves the fact that this song appeared from a jam - "Usually it's like, 'they've spent 365 years underground measuring the antenna of a woodlouse'.. "
What are we teaching Nico in this episode? That music isn't that snake-y. "Like adding in a Coda" "What's anaconda?" "Not anaconda, a coda, like an ending". Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
Andrew does ASMR. Nico BOPS (not to the ASMR, to the song). Did you know three of the songs on this album are spaced specifically to deal with water related things? Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
"You told me this was going to be a regular song, but what does regular mean?" - Nico
Nico tenses up and waits for the revolving door to drop. Does it happen? No, it turns into what he calls, "Art Therapy". Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
"Why is there a car? To be fair that's the least of my concerns right now." .... "Oh.. More cars" -Nico Remember to watch along with us on vimeo.com/headfullofradio
Thom: "(For this album) We are definitely having singles, videos, glossy magazine celebrity photo-shoots, children's television appearances, film premier appearances, dance routines and many interesting interviews about my tortured existence." Nico: "Well there's a line..." Want to hear every episode, and see every video review? head to https://archive.org/details/headfullofradio
The band recorded Optimistic the day after laying the tracks down for this one, so maybe that's telling where it fits within the context of score? Also somehow it took a long time for Andrew to bring up Stanley, which is not what a good host should be doing here. Certainly not shim-shimming.
Nico felt like this was very White Lotus-y, "I don't know, it was just cool. I feel like I certainly haven't processed it. It's confused me but drawn me in." Which is how Andrew feels about ACTUALLY being in the same city, hanging out with his co-host at the time this episode airs!
Ready to learn about Saddam Hussein and Christiane Amanpour? No? Well it DOES have information on where the title of the song came from. We also learn about the United Nations Special Commission and tunnels and more tunnels.
Thom: "More of an orgy of violence, politics, and not politics. I don't know man, that's what's going on inside my head and I won't lose sleep about it anymore because it obviously benefits the music, thank god." Nico: A lot to unpack there. Good for him, whatever that means.
Andrew is transported back into the living room of an old friend who tried to teach him how to play piano, while Nico wishes he was on mushrooms.
Chase is so flabbergasted that he doesn't speak through a lot of this episode, but it's fun to listen to anyway. Watch along with him on our youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@headfullofradio
It's a Choose Your Own Adventure situation: We all watch the blips and review them on our own. And you know you want to hear Nico's version the most, right? Also, the watch-alongs for this are available on Youtube for the first time. Check them out at: https://www.youtube.com/@headfullofradio
