Last night Radiohead appeared on the second-best show on TV (I’m still sticking with The Daily Show as the best) to make it even better by giving two interviews and performing six songs – one of them, “The Daily Mail,” is brand new. It begins like a neo-Coldplay piece, predictably political, and you may be reminded of In Rainbows when the full band enters.
But the interviews are arguably just as interesting as the performances. Colbert’s egotistical, abrasive character provides an amusing and interesting juxtaposition to Thom Yorke’s facial quirks, Ed O’Brien’s emo haircut, and the band’s overall awkwardness. Check out videos of all the performances and the interviews below.
