Returning sense of smell

Garbage wind.
Trash tornadoes.
Hot wafting piss in the dog run.
Crude oil.
BQE run-off.
Rush hour funk.
Platforms in Chinatown.
Park bums.

Mmm… love this city.

OK

This is certainly old news, but I’m usually late to the table and the forthcoming brilliance should be dutifully shared.

Stereogum recently released a track-for-track cover of Radiohead’s OK Computer, with each song tackled by a different artist. Follow the link and download it for free.

Enough glowing words have been written about OK Computer, all fully justified, so I’ll spare my own rant. On the tribute album, however, pay especial attention to the opener and the closer – Airbag and The Tourist – two tracks that always got short shrift on my speakers, but are wonderfully redone here.
