Myxomatosis
The biggest challenge in linking to these mp3 files found online is coming up with descriptions for the music. Chuck Klosterman inspired me this morning by describing Radiohead's music as "transcendent, fragile, pre-apocalyptic math rock" in an article for Spin magazine (found in his book).
Hours later, I was listening to "Myxomatosis," which Klosterman allowed is "perhaps the most interesting entry on Hail to the Thief." By chance it was in the wget queue at just the right time. The story from the interview is that a young Thom Yorke's parents showed him dead rabbits all over the English countryside, killed by the virus with a mellifluous name.
Meanwhile, Spin is covering the latest developments in the murder of Christopher Wallace, a.k.a. the Notorious B.I.G. One of his tracks also found its way to my hard drive.
