Roxy Music bracket: Exit Music (For A Film) (6) v Fog (11)

Exit Music (For a Film)

OK Computer (6) If I were to lose my mind someday, and my psychosis is Radiohead-related, this would be the song I rant about most as if it had "deeper" meaning. The title is spot-on, as the tone evokes a community of survivers discussing their bleak future in a bombed-out shelter (the lyrics suggest domestic abuse?). Paradoxically lush and sparse; it's epic.


VS


Fog


Knives Out
(11)

"Fog" begins and ends with little fanfare. Thom & Co. play it pretty straight, and the result is a Radiohead palate cleanser. I have little to say about this song that can help you appreciate it.

"I have little to say about this song that can help you appreciate it."

Modest, humility, approved.
