The Eraser

The Big Mates discuss bloopers, CBT, The Crystal Maze, and The Eraser by Thom Yorke.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career and discography of Radiohead by heading to 2006 and tackling the debut solo offering from singer Thom Yorke. They talk about the writing and recording process, the context surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions, and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or critique, and everything in between.

They also touch on Radiohead's 2006 tour, their legendary performance at Bonnaroo Festival, and why Yorke wanted to make a solo album in the first place.

How does the album influence and inform the music of Radiohead? What is the line on Lucas' jumper? Who is the hoist with the moist? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?

Our next episode is out on Monday December 5th and will feature insightful commentary for a show from Radiohead's 2006 tour.
