I just heard Thom Yorke’s tribute to Harry Patch, and I’ve never heard such a horrible noise in my life. To be fair I am not a Radiohead fan at all - but even so that was exceptionally horrendous. If anyone wants to sponsor me to swim through an erupting volcano I’ll gladly donate the money but I NEVER want to put my ears (or my stomach) through that again! It certainly couldn’t be defined as music by any reputable source, and something about the combination of noises and ‘vocals’ made me feel physically sick.
RIP Harry - I’m so sorry on behalf of the population of Britain that you might be associated for the rest of history with that awful pile of crap.
