“You would have to do it like an art installation.”Ģ0 years since O’Brien gave that quote, the band have actually gone and done that to celebrate Kid A as well as Amnesiac, both albums coming from the same recording sessions between 19 that “cancel each other out as overall finished things” according to frontman Thom Yorke, as part of celebrating respective anniversaries (Kid A released 21 years ago last month while Amnesiac celebrated 20 years back in June).Īs Yorke and established Radiohead artist Stanley Donwood said in a PlayStation Blog post last week, the installation was meant to be a physical thing that would reside in London but with the possibility of travelling all over the world.

“You couldn’t do Kid A live and be true to the record,” said O’Brien. In a Rolling Stone interview to promote its tour to promote its then latest album Amnesiac in June 2001, Radiohead guitarist Ed O’Brien said in order to have to perform Kid A – the album that had come out less than a year earlier to much antcipation only for reaction to be, to be polite, mixed when it wasn’t quite OK Computer 2 – it would have to be significantly different to what the band released nine months earlier in October 2000.
