Genius Annotation

Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box kicked off the session with a trippy, dance backbeat and a pounding kettle drum (or, perhaps, drummer Phil Selway was literally banging on a kitchen pot). Yorke’s vocal was mostly distorted and processed with auto-tune throughout the track, weaving in and out of indistinguishable (in this setting, at least) sampled vocals.

Colin: “The kkkurrghh from Packt Like Sardines, that’s from Thom’s laptop. We just compressed messed-up loops.”
