They recorded it in March 1995 at Chipping Norton: a synthesiser groove rather than a band arrangement, and one of the odder things they put out in that period. Yorke's half-joking description of the target was Barry White crossed with Dinosaur Jr.
The laughter at the end is real and has a source. Colin Greenwood has confirmed it is Jonny cracking up at one of his own jokes, left on the record.
It came out during the “Fake Plastic Trees” single cycle.
