Burn My Shadow by UNKLE

Standard

Interesting video about a man who discovers a timer on his heart is about to run out. Will he survive?

UNKLE bust out all the rock gear to bring you this ditty, with vocals by singer Ian Astbury of The Cult fame. This is off their third album, War Stories.

This UK trip-rock band has an eclectic sound to it. They’ve produced numerous albums and EPs, collaborating with many others artists like Thom Yorke from Radiohead to Richard Ashcroft from The Verve. Many of their songs appear in ads and tv, probably due to their movie-soundtrack like quality.

Let Down by Easy Star All-Stars

Standard

A stylized video playing with a 2-d landscape. Meh.

Easy Star All-Stars remake this Radiohead song infusing a nice reggae beat and some nice emotional vocals, creating something better than the original.

This reggae group of ragtag musicians have birthed 4 albums so far recreating Pink Floyd‘s Dark Side of the Moon, various Radiohead songs, the BeatlesSgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and even an album of original work. Here’s hoping that their next project will be some Nine Inch Nails tunes.

Amanda Palmer Performs The Popular Hits Of Radiohead On Her Magical Ukulele by Amanda Palmer

Standard

Instead of spotlighting a song, let’s hear a whole album without any distracting images.

Amanda Palmer (one half of The Dresden Dolls) broke up with her record label and decided to celebrate by releasing a bunch of Radiohead songs on ukulele. Her magic ukulele. Probably pried from Tiny Tim‘s cold dead hands.

She’s released 1 solo album, as well as 2 albums with the Dresden Dolls

If you’re a Radiohead fan and a fan of the ukulele (yes the two don’t have to be mutually exclusive), then you’ll love this. Give it a listen…
