Ive never believed that pop music is escapist trash. Theres always a darkness in it, even amidst great pop music. – Thom Yorke
If we got into a situation where people start burning our records, then bring it on. Thats the whole point. The gloaming has begun. Were in the darkness. This has happened before. Go read some history. – Thom Yorke
