Radiohead gone Crunk. http://zoomzip.kil.la/skeetspirit/ Now, I'm not an avowed Radiohead fan, but this just has me stumped. I've seen some craaaazy remakes of various artist in the past, some good, some bad, this one though, no clue.
Ahh Blazing Status, I knew you so well, yet fickle is fate, and now I am chill.

There are just certain songs out there that are anthems for our lives, be they positive songs from groups such as the Psychedelic Sprees or darker songs by Tori or as black as they get with Dimmu Borgir and their black-hearted guitars. Some songs are only for stages of our lives, anything by The Cure for our goth phases, NIN for our rebellious youth, and Beck for our collegiate days of drinking ourselves stupid. With all things, I like my music to move forward, have my tastes evolve and find pleasure in sophistication, Bach and Mozart being prime examples. Somehow though there's always a certain primal element in all of us that calls us back to the music that made our parents wonder if we were aliens incarnate. For me that's what this week has been all about. For some reason, not that I'm displeased, I'm just left wondering what I'm seeking in Trent's ranting and screaming that Carmina Burana can't provide. Maybe I'm seeking a bit of that rebel as I sit tied to a desk, that part of me that never wants to get out of bed on Monday, that side of me that calls out on Friday nights and wants to go dressing in all black just to freak the norms, the spark of my rebellious youth that was never really exercised because I grew up in a small town. I can only imagine the things I would've done then with the resources I have now, money, a car, and a lot more smarts too. I could have been such a dangerous and rash youth! But, I remember sullenly that I have a mortgage, bills, and a car payment, animals that depend on me, a yard that needs mowing, and all the weight of domesticity. I guess I just answered myself though in my head, it's not that I'm trying to be young and stupid again, it's just an escape from the everyday, and so, like so many other things in my life, I embrace it and wonder... just how loud can "Head Like a Hole" be pumped out by the amp I couldn't afford when I was 18.

you're still young. 30 is the new 19. you can be as reliably avant garde and rebellious as you want; just don't kill your pets or get your property ceased by the government.
Hey, I'm all for that idea! And no, the pets are safe, even in my gothest of days I was squeamish about blood. I would have made a terrible vampire.

I'm a totally whore for remixes/mashups/revisionings but this one has me stumped. Did this really seem like a good idea?
