Radiohead - Murder

KID A ANTI-CAMPAIGN
Sound Blip: "Kid A"

No conventional music videos were initially released from Kid A, but short films called "blips" were set to its music. They were usually around 30 seconds in length. The blips were shown between segments on MTV, occasionally as TV commercials for the album, and were distributed free from Radiohead's website.

Each blip was made by one of two collectives: The Vapour Brothers or Shynola. Most blips were animated, often inspired by Stanley Donwood's album artwork. The blips have been seen as stories of nature reclaiming civilization from uncontrollable biotechnology and consumerism.

Characters in the blips included "sperm monsters" and blinking, genetically modified killer teddy bears, the latter of which became a self-conscious logo for the album's advertising campaign.

Tengo entendido que fue Thom Yorke y los Vapour Brothers. El concepto de cada video fue hecho totalmente por Thom Yorke.

lol really? i get the complete opposite. i actually feel sooo happy when listening to it in the dark alone. it sounds like a children's song like the innocence of a children's song i cant explain it

kid A makes me feel like I'm in some isolation/time chamber floating through space, caught between a dream and implanted memories.

I love how the guy just fades away, almost like it never happened.

i invite you to hear kid a in a very cold night before sleep

[djcloudstrife]

yeah, i guess its sort of a happy creepy, im not sure if that makes any sense. like i guess the happiness stems from how honest the song is to emotion in a way, its not sugar coated with pretty lyrics and crystal clear production. its just so honest that it makes me feel happy i guess. not sure if that makes any sense but that is how i get with a lot of radiohead tunes. very dark and ominous but also in a positive way. its not like creepy in a stupid halloween metalhead sort of fashion

[JAKEOLOLOL]

yeah but for me that makes it even creepier

[NattyCantSleep]

No, si este hombre es perfecto =)
