Thom Yorke on 88 Nine

Thom Yorke knew Goblin before he knew Suspiria, having come across their work a couple of years earlier and found it fascinating and slightly deranged. He heard things in it close to what his own band had been trying, though far more complicated than anything they would attempt. He talks to Justin Barney of the Milwaukee station at Electric Lady in New York.

He will not pose as a connoisseur. He watches a lot of films but is not a buff, and had not really known the original director's work. Pressed on what he does like, he names The Hangover, which makes him laugh every time.

The film was not finished when he started. Footage was shot and sent to him while he moved between his own studio and tour commitments, and since the editing went on for a very long time, the two ran alongside each other.
