Thom Yorke, Jack White Collaboration: Radiohead Frontman Alludes To Working Together

I can't even imagine what this things going to sound like. Not immediately exciting, but if he made the JW & Alicia Keys song fly, I suppose he can work with anyone.

Match made in musical heaven.

I'm not a superfan of either guy, but I still like both to an extent. Even still, their styles don't seem particularly complementary so it's hard to imagine this sounding very good.

Interesting collaboration and one which I wouldn't have thought would work, but we'll see.

Big fan of jack, not so much of Tom. Two very different styles, I as well cant imagine how that would sound. Jack is a very raw, stripped down garage rock kinda guy, Tom is more elaborate. But I think jack showed there's a little more to him on this new album. Sure, some songs were in a very basic white stripes-esque style, like "sixteen saltines", but there were some tracks that didn't sound like typical jack. Maybe jack will bring out a more raw side of Tom or maybe Tom will bring out jacks more eccentric side. Maybe there isnt even a thought of collaboration, who knows. I'm interested to see one, though.

I'm sure if they made something ****ty, they would realize it and do something else until it sounded good. They aren't stupid.

Not sure what that would have to do with intelligence. I'm sure plenty of intelligent musicians have produced some subpar work, and some of the past releases of both White and Yorke certainly demonstrate that neither are exempt from that.

Right. They heard King of Limbs and thought it was acceptable.
