Radiohead on Dave Fanning, RTÉ
Kid A started no fights, but it left one of the band wondering where he played a part if they weren't playing guitars.
2009 · Dave Fanning, RTÉ · Radiohead
Dave Fanning lays out the road to Kid A, the trips to Paris and Copenhagen and Thom Yorke saying tunes were dead and rhythm was everything, and asks whether it caused fights. No, says one of the band. The doubt was more personal, about where he played a part if they weren't playing guitars. Yorke's fixed idea was the right one at the time, and stimulating. The trick was finding a way in until it felt like a band working again.
