Radiohead - "Kid A" promotional cinematography [????] Well, there were no singles pulled from "Kid A", but I do
remember seeing a quite daunting and twisted promo "film" for the album on TV just before it was released. And it wasn't just a videoclip for one of the songs. I do believe it was more of a compilation of songs and sounds, kind of like "2 whomever it may concern" by Prince, which was accompanied by very weird images. It was mostly these cartoon things, which comprised most of the "Kid A" and "Amnesiac" artwork. Twisted Bears and Crying Minotaurs, Treefingers and MachineGun Hats. That, and more. Can anyone tell me if they've seen this anywhere and can remember what it is exactly? See, when I saw it, I tried to watch it but I kept falling into a stupor caused by too much alcohol. Is it perhaps available on dvd??? and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Yup, that's the one I'm talking about. It also had flashes of a black and white "test screen" kind of thingie. Plus those mad bears with machineguns and stakeknife dentures that fly through the air. It was quite an insane feature I must say. The kind of thing that would send a psycho right over the edge. Hell, it was enough to make a sane man go potty. I just wanna see it again. and again and again. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

There was a series of mini movies released on the radiohead website around the time of Kid A's release, called "blips". They opted to go this route instead of releasing any mainstream videos. The blips were like 30 second or so short films made by a variety of directors, and featured some pretty cool scenes. One was an animated flight through 3D vector shapes resembling the mountains on the cover. Another was a bear getting chased in a desolate snowy landscape. One of the funnier ones was a video of a stuffed bear getting pecked to death by birds. | |
