Currently veiling the exterior of the XL Records building, the mural turned animated GIF is a collaboration between Stanley Donwood and INSA. In his bold graphic style, Donwood depicts Los Angeles flooded and burning, with [...] The post Atoms For Peace release debut album 'AMOK' appeared first on Cougar Microbes .

Hail To The Thief has, to my ears, always seemed to stand as Radiohead's most expressive, and thereby successful work. It's an opinion I think few uphold, though one I stand by staunchly. Unerringly, even. By that same decree, I've always perceived Where I End and You Begin (The Sky Is Falling In) to be their most convincing composition: those modulated, almost grimacing synths; the violently thrashed snares; the awry vocal and the ensuing sirens which sound as though they're hounding Thom Yorke until death do him part and they do indeed eat him alive. It's visceral; eruptive as [...]

GIFs. We know them as the novelties that made up the look of the internet in the 90s, and now get flung around the internet for our amusement. Want to see a cat repeatedly falling over? Simply type that phrase into Google, followed by 'GIF', and your afternoon's pretty much sorted. Recently however, these weapons of procrastination have been seen as legitimate art forms and chances for experimentation, with several GIF exhibitions taking place in galleries and online. Now another step has been taken in this collaboration between Stanley Donwood and INSA, which has come about in [...]

Well, it’s a little later than last year but it’s time again to turn the music down and put on your art-critic monocles and top hats.  Yes, in a year where some heavy hitters came along with some high quality production, I did my best to highlight of few of the lesser known ‘other’ artists involved in completing the full album package. Just like the last two years ( 2009 , 2010 ), my discriminating eye is looking for quality in a holistic sense when it comes to album artwork. Essentially my main question is whether or not it [...]

There’s a chance for magic when musicians cross paths. For some it’s groundbreaking ( Aerosmith ft. Run DMC – “Walk This Way” ), and other times it’s the thought that counts ( Nelly ft. Tim McGraw – “Over and Over” ). But when there’s that spark that elevates a collaborated piece to a whole new level, well, that’s the stuff that melts the hearts of music fans. No longer are artists forced to snail mail DATs to each other via the Postal Service or find the time to meet in the studio. Online file sharing has facilitated endless possibilities for [...]

Stanley Donwood , conocido colaborador artístico de Radiohead , habló de las motivaciones detrás de la curiosa y creativa tapa y arte del último disco de la banda, The King of Limbs . El artista afirmó que el arte del disco tiene que ver con la idea transitoria que se esconde detrás de las canciones. “ La idea del disco era tener algo que casi no existiera, así que elegimos el vinilo transparente y el formato [...]

Benett, Getty Images Long-term Radiohead collaborator and artist Stanley Donwood has written a column explaining the idea behind their newspaper 'The Universal Sigh' and it's relationship with 'The King of Limbs.' "The newspaper thing began some months previously, in the summer," he wrote in the NME . "I'd left a newspaper on a bench in the sun, and when I returned to get it a few [...]

Ο Stanley Donwood (ο αρτίστας των εξωφύλλων των Radiohead απο το The Bends μέχρι και το επερχόμενο -ευλογημένο απο τον ποντίφικα- ανώνυμο ακόμα LP8) μας ενημέρωσε μέσα απο το διαδικτυακό εφημεριδάκι του οτι η αυριανή μέρα -και γιορτή του Αγίου Βαλεντίνου- θα περιέχει κάποιες εκπλήξεις. Τώρα... κ. Stanley... θα πρέπει στα σίγουρα να γνωρίζετε οτι χιλιάδες κόσμου ψάχνει απεγνωσμένα το Atease για ψήγματα ειδήσεων για το όγδοο άλμπουμ των Radiohead όπως και ότι αρκετά περισσότεροι [...]

London versinkt in den Fluten, selbst ein legendärer Dänischer König kann nichts dagegen unternehmen. Das ist das Cover von Thom Yorkes Soloalbum. Ohne grosse Ankündigung war es plötzlich da, Thom Yorkes Soloalbum. Das Albumcover, auf reinen, nicht plastifizierten Carton gedruckt, zeigt einen Linolschnitt von Stanley Donwood. Darauf zu sehen ist König Knut der Grosse, der, so will es die Legende, vergeblich versuchte, den Ozean zu bändigen. Die Szenerie haben Donwood und Yorke aber von Dänemark nach London verlegt - dies wird deutlich, wenn man die CD-Hülle aufklappt und so das komplette Bild [...]

That???s right. Stanley Donwood, the Radiohead artist, has started his own label. Yes, there???s more to it. Here???s what Stanley has to say about the project: ???SIX INCH RECORDS??? is a project that may take a little explaining. The story begins around the time of Christmas 2006, when I drunkenly decided to become a record label boss. Every man needs a hobby, or so the clich?? has it, and if I was going to make a late-stage attempt at normality then that was one of the things that I [...]
