  Hard-to-Get Atoms for Peace Vinyl Is Now Gettable

  May 14, 2013 – Atoms for Peace haven't played live together since their 2010 appearance at Japan's Fuji Rock Festival, so it's understandable if the Amok collective — consisting of Thom Yorke, Nigel Godrich, Flea, Joey Waronker, and Mauro Refosco — need some time to warm up before their continent-hopping tour kicks off in July. Well, that's exactly what the five-piece have planned. …

  Hear Atoms for Peace Pensively Rework Four Tet's 'Pyramid'

  April 25, 2013 – Left-field dance busybody Four Tet is known for churning out high-quality remixes — he recently did some excellent damage to Justin Timberlake's "Suit & Tie," and went on a SoundCloud spree yesterday providing fans with an entire CD-R's worth of his reworkings. With that in mind, it may be time for the man to let someone else take the reigns. …

  Thom Yorke and Nigel Godrich Amusingly Insult EDM

  April 23, 2013 – Thom Yorke is no fan of most electronic dance music today. That should be no surprise if you're the least bit familiar with his bands Radiohead or Atoms for Peace, which show far more interest in abstraction and complexity than so much recent EDM's Ibiza-via-Vegas glitz. …

  Watch Thom Yorke and Nigel Godrich Teach Teenage Girls to Love Their Bodies

  Listen to Thom Yorke Shoot the Breeze With Golden-Voiced Alec Baldwin

  April 1, 2013 – Thom Yorke's freely ranging discussion with Alec Baldwin on the 30 Rock actor's WNYC radio show Here's the Thing was more about the human interplay between the two famous men than uncovering new revelations. It's a trip just to hear Baldwin's deep, resonant voice — sounds like money, no wonder he's sponsored by a credit-card company — and Yorke's diffident, British-accented one in conversation. …

  March 22, 2013 – Thom Yorke and Nigel Godrich are building up a solid pre-tour froth around the recent release of their debut Atoms for Peace LP Amok. Last week we got to watch the pair perform songs from that album (plus Yorke's 2006 solo set The Eraser) using a spare DJ-style setup. …
