Revue de Presse de RH
FadeOut:
(suite, voir post du dessus ;))
Italo: Yeah, absolutely!
Ed: And, it's also...
Italo: And you're getting clean energy as well!
Ed: Absolutely! it's great to give somebody a remit and say: ‘listen, we want a low energy rig, come up with what you...’ And, that would have never come up if we'd been using... if we hadn't said ‘So listen, we want you to use a low energy rig.’
Italo: Uh-huh.
Ed: Yeah, so...
Italo: Great! I especially love, you know, what you do in “Planet Telex”, in the end, with all the rainbow colours and stuff! It's great... it's amazing really.
Ed: It is. It is.
Italo: I mean, I haven't seen the show yet, I mean... my first show will be for Rio. He went to Mexico...
Ed: Right.
Italo: ...both shows. He said lots of crazy people were pushing around. He was, like, right in front of you, and then two minutes later he was like on the side of the crowd.
Ed: Really?
Italo: And then, he went back, and people were like a huge wave.
Ed (to Marcos): Was it fun out there? Was it nice? Nice people?
Italo (to Marcos): Te fue... te parecio divertido... la gente?
*Was it... did you think it was fun... the people?
Marcos: Si. Era incredible.
*Yes. It was incredible.
Ed: Lovely... lovely people!
Marcos: Muy bueno.
*Very good.
Ed: Yeah. Yeah.
Italo: So, I mean... What else? Let’s see... Any chance we might see you or Phil singing, with vocals... I mean...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: I know you have a lot of respect for Thom as a composer...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: ...and as a performer...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: ...but, there's, like, legendary bands, you know, like um, Pixies, or the Beatles...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: ...or Sonic Youth...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: ...switching between vocalists.
Ed: Yeah, I think we're going to do that.
Italo: You're going to do it?
Ed: I think it would be really cool to do it. I think it’d be really... and I think Thom would really enjoy that as well.
Italo: Uh-huh.
Ed: Um... yeah.
Italo: People were surprised when they saw Phil singing, you know?
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: Because, they say, ‘He's a real good singer!’...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: ...and his song was, you know, like, real nice. It sounds a lot like “Follow Me Around”...
Ed: Right.
Italo: ...that's what people say.
Ed: Well, okay... that's interesting. [Laughs.]
Italo: Yeah, I mean, and talking about that song, is there any chance, you know-- maybe your fans ask this all the time, I mean--to see, again, stuff like “Follow Me Around” or “Big Boots”, or “Lift”?
Ed: We rehearsed... we rehearsed, um... We rehearsed “Follow Me Around”, um... when we were in the studio two weeks ago. We played it.
Italo: Really?
Ed: Yup.
Italo: Is there any chance you might play it somewhere?
Ed: Um, not on this tour... because it's too rough.
Italo: Okay.
Ed: And also it's not really the place to play new songs.
Italo: Uh-huh.
Ed: But... we will definitely... “Big Boots” is... It's funny, because we... we revisited that... and, it's a great song... it's one of the ones that got away. It's a really... I love that song. To me, that sounds like a James Bond theme.
Italo: Yeah! I love it too... I mean, when I saw you guys in Blackpool--do you remember? We met there after the show.
Ed: Yeah!
Italo: When I saw, in the second show, right before you guys played “The Bends”, a guy screamed like, "Oh, Big Boots!" And Jonny was like, he was like ‘Thanks for the memories’, I mean, we went crazy with that. And I mean, that's the kind of thing that keeps it standing. I mean, like, when, also Thom does a couple of lines of “True Love Waits” before “Everything in its Right Place”.
Ed: Yeah...
Italo: Or even, he also did “Follow Me Around” before that song. I mean, is there also any chance that, you know, Thom might grab the acoustic guitar and play a solo run of “True Love Waits”?
Ed: Yeah, there's always a chance, absolutely! But the thing is like, what we wanted on this tour, is for him to try and do a track off “The Eraser”.
Italo: “Cymbal Rush”?
Ed: “Cymbal Rush”, that he was doing. It worked out, and it was sounding good. So yeah, I mean...
Italo: Any Jonny songs you've tried to do live? I mean, like “24-Hour Charleston”? Are you familiar with the names of Jonny's songs?
Ed: I'm not familiar with the names!
Italo: You're not familiar with the names...
Ed: No.
Italo: It's the one he plays with Colin on bass.
Ed: Right! Yeah...
Italo: That one's real nice, too, I mean, it would be great to see it live. But, you know...
Ed: I'll tell him that!
Italo: Have you heard anything regarding your very, very old songs from the On a Friday days? I mean, there's, I don't know how, some of those songs leaked onto the Internet.
Ed: Oh, I know.
Italo: There's people familiar with this very old song called "Happy Song", and "To Be a Brilliant Light". I was about to bring these on my iPod but I forgot it. Maybe you would have a laugh with it. But it's definitely you guys playing, it still has the personality there.
Ed: Oh yeah, it's us! But it's very early, it was leaked; basically we had an old friend of ours, Nigel, who we did some 4-track recording with. And there were songs that we did when we were like a band that was a year old. And, he was a friend of ours and he... he put... he had all our stuff on DAT, backed up. And, he was our lighting engineer. He did our lights for us from 92 through to 93. And then he put it all on the internet, which is a bit of a shock!
Italo: He did it?!
Ed: He did it.
Italo: Hah that's funny!! There's also a very early tape from 1986, which some guard girl claimed to have it. Which... where you had, "Fragile Friend".
Ed: Yeah? Really...
Italo: And, she even had a picture of Colin in a suit from like the prom dance or something.
Ed: Really?
Italo: Yeah, with a rose on his chest and stuff.
Ed: Wow... [Laughs.]
Italo: Yeah. We don't know where that came from and where it is right now because that person disappeared.
Ed: Really...
Italo: She just...
Ed: Went undercover?
Italo: Yeah! She had posted a video on YouTube where she played just like two seconds of the song, and she said ‘Oh yeah, this is “Fragile Friend"’. And it was a very distinctive Thom kind of screaming... Any chance, you know, do you have any control over that? Was it ever registered with EMI?
Ed: No.
Ed: You know, and I think that the other thing is that people genuinely didn't realise what an exceptional place and continent this is and so, you know it was... yeah, we were aware that there were tours, but I think that they were you know like.....we didn't really...I think it was possibly two years ago that we saw the first South American tour possibility...
Italo: Okay.
Ed: And I know that promoters probably submitted stuff, but they never got beyond the management and agents because they didn't think it was appropriate for us at that time...
Italo: Alright.
Ed: Because it... you know, because of where we were as a band or whatever, and I remember from 2003 until 2007...
Italo: Yeah, you had like a very long break.
Ed: We had all of 2004 off, and restarted in 2005, you know, so we weren't really gigging then, but I guess we could have come in 2006, but you have to kind of... you know, I think what's great, and my feeling on it, is that it's all for a reason. This tour that we're doing is the best that we've ever played, this is the best... you know, we've got the best album... I think we've got the best album to tour that we've ever made. I'm not saying that because (check) I think it's one of the best albums, but in terms of playing, it's amazing to play.
Italo: It works perfectly with the lights.
Ed: So to come to South America with this record is perfect timing.
Italo: Right.
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: So, were you aware that... I mean we talked to the management about several campaigns that were going on in Peru, Costa Rica, even Colombia, we got like thousands of signatures from people. I mean, Peru got twelve thousand people signing up, and Colombia got like seven thousand, and Costa Rica even got media attention and local bands supporting, and they were like ‘Yeah we still have a chance, guys’, and you know...Ed: I'm really sorry, I mean I don't want to, like, you know... it's like it would be lovely... I mean, I so want to go to Colombia, I so want to go to Peru, you know, and who knows, maybe we shall. I know that the trouble is... and I'll be honest, the trouble is with places like Colombia in the UK, it gets a really.....and I understand this, but for most people they don't understand that, you know, they still think that Colombia's a really dangerous place where people are getting...where the (check) are kidnapping everybody, every westerner that goes there, and certainly if you went in there you'd have to be very careful.
Italo: Yeah well it's it would be like saying that (check), which is not true.
Ed: Absolutely, absolutely, but you know how it is, with the media all over the world, they like to focus on the fear.
Italo: Uh-huh.
Ed: So that, I'm sure, you know, you have to read a lot to understand that it's not like that, and you know, I'd like nothing more than to do a proper tour of South America which includes Uruguay and Paraguay and that we could scale down the tour, but it doesn't work like that unfortunately.
Italo: There's a lot of kind of gigs lately, I mean, Peru. has just had like huge festivals with REM and now we're having Iron Maiden and (check).
Ed: Right.
Italo: And these are all big stadium shows, as well as you know small shows like Björk was just there, I mean...
Ed: Oh, really?
Italo: Yeah, it was in 2007.
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: Doing like, you know, small theatres around South America.
Ed: Right.
Italo: So I mean it can work out.
Ed: Yeah, yeah, and I think that would be... I think that could be great.
Italo: Well, Coldplay did it. I mean you don't like... what's your thoughts on Coldplay? I mean a lot of people think you guys hate them because they took kind of like The Bends and made it popular.
Ed: Oh, I don't hate them at all, I mean, you know, I think they... they work very, very hard and, you know, they're good at what they do, they want to be the biggest band in the world, you know.
Italo: Yeah.
Ed: And they're good at that, you know. Somebody has to do it.
Italo: Right. So, there's still chance that we'll have Radiohead for more years to come?
Ed: I think so
Italo: Any chance that you'll sign with a huge label, or keep it independent?
Ed: Who knows? You know, you just don't know. Never say never. We had big offers from the major labels, but they didn't really interest us
Italo: Okay.
Ed: Yeah, I mean the important thing about everything that we do is to keep it original, keep it new, keep it moving, and whatever way we can do that, that'll be the best way.
Italo: Great. So I hope you guys come back here real soon, and would you let me... I'll just give you the bottle.
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: Let's see...
Ed: It's very, very kind of you, thank you.
Italo: As I told you, this can be like drunk with a shot glass.
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: And it's our national drink, which is called pisco sour, which is done with lemon and a lot of ice and sugar.
Ed: Right.
Italo: There's like a lot of recipes out there, so it won't be hard to find. It's called pisco sour.
Ed: Pisco sour?
Italo: Pisco sour, yes that's it
Ed: Thank you very much.
Italo: Would you mind if we took a picture together?
Ed: No, of course not. Should we do it outside in the...
Italo: Yeah, sure
Ed: Yeah, that'd be much better
Italo: There's names for each one of you.
Ed: Yeah, I know, I saw that. Brilliant.
Italo: One for each of the five of you and for Chris Hufford...
Ed: Okay.
Italo: ...as a thank you gift. That instrument thing they just gave you...
Ed: Yeah.
Italo: ...the Mexicans use it in the shower (?)
Ed: Oh, right
Italo: So, if I can ask you a big favour...
Ed: Yeah
Italo: Would you guys try to rehearse “Pearly*”, to try and play it here in South America? I don't know if there's any time to do it, or...
Ed: I don't think we've got time
Italo: Okay. I love the tunes “I Might Be Wrong” and “Myxomatosis”. Would you have...?
Ed: Sure, sure.
Italo: That'd be great.
Ed: That's a possibility.
Italo: Nice.
Ed: Yeah

--- Citer ---Le groupe britannique prépare un nouvel album qui pourrait révéler des influences d'un nouveau genre.
Radiohead s'inspire des groupes de métal Radiohead virera-t-il au métal ? Dans une interview rapportée par le site Exclaim, Colin Greenwood, le bassiste du groupe, aurait déclaré au magazine britannique NME vouloir s'appuyer sur de nouvelles influences musicales. La formation prépare un nouvel album qui, à en croire les dires du bassiste, devrait s'inspirer de groupes de métal tels que Kraftwerk (musique synthétique), que Radiohead a rencontré lors d'une récente tournée en Afrique du Sud.
"Cela nous a vraiment inspiré de les voir chaque soir et d'entendre leurs mélodies intemporelles et magnifiques. Leur approche conceptuelle de la musique inspire", a-t-il indiqué. Radiohead pourrait également s'inspirer de Sepultura que Colin Greenwood et ses acolytes avaient vu jouer lors d'un festival germanique. "C'était vraiment déstabilisant", a-t-il ajouté. Reste désormais aux fans de patienter avant de découvrir ce nouvel opus du groupe qui réservera sans doute bien des surprises.

kid armor:
kraftwerk pourquoi pas mais sepultura surtout pas ! là ce serait le divorce d'office !
Dr. Buck:
enfin la déclaration complète de colin c'est "ce n'était pas vraiment puissant, mais vraiment destabilisant" s'ils veulent reprendre un micro ingrédient à sepultura grand bien leurs fasse, je pense pas qu'on l'entendra avec évidence dans l'album ^^
c'est pas bodysnatcher qui était censé nous faire penser à wolfmother? j'veux qu'il y ait des grattes saturées mais au delà de ça...
(et j'aime bien le "groupe de métal tel que kraftwerk")
Jonesy:
Un peu plus de violence et de bruit dans quelques morceaux ne serait pas pour me déplaire. Mais je fais confiance au groupe pour nous accommoder ça à leur sauce.
Jonny, nouveau guitar-héro ? :what:
