Anyone who listens to ANY album EVERY day needs to get out more.

Thom Yorke has written an 18-day-long song

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has written a song that is 432 hours long for frequent collaborator Stanley Donwood's The Panic Office art exhibition in Sydney.

The exhibition lasts eighteen days, and the piece of music, named Subterranea, will span its entire length.

No two minutes of the work's 25,920 minutes are alike, with Australian radio station Triple J saying that it is "an eerie mix of ambient textures, experimental sounds, and field recordings", apparently similar in style to Yorke's solo album Tomorrow's Modern Boxes.

Donwood is an English artist who has designed all of Radiohead's album covers from The Bends onwards. He also collaborated with Yorke on the Dead Children Playing picture book in 2007.

There are currently no plans for the music to be released outside of the exhibition.



Interesting, you would need more than two weeks off work just to listen to the song once. Unless you can listen at work, like half of you lazy f*ckers seems to be able to do!

As boring as it would be listening to an 18 day long song it would still be better than watching an Ulster football match.
When you think you're fucked you're only about 40% fucked.

Bingo

18 days - that's nearly as long as Laois's intercounty championship season lasts.

Sure that's not a song. I could go down to the banks of the mulcair for 2 weeks with a tape recorder, the sound of the water, the birds, the wind in the trees etc, and call it a song too :)

I agree, great album. The more i listen to it, possibly even their best
I can only please one person per day. Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either

Watch the "in rainbows - from the basement" session on youtube for the full effect of the album. Even better version of Reckoner and the added bonus track of "Where I end and you begin" at the end of the show.

Every second of the day there's a Democrat telling a lie

Fell out of touch with Radiohead after Amnesiac.

Must give this a listen (In Rainbows, not the other thing!).
