Radiohead hints that they are recording new album.

Artwork for the new Radiohead song "These Are My Twisted Words"

BBH resident librarian Matthew Farrell reportedly checks the Radiohead website every 10 minutes--and so you our humble blog readers can get all the hot Radiohead news practically as it happens. Jonny Greenwood just posted a finished track called "These Are My Twisted Words" along with some obscure news on their recording efforts on their website. Check it out here.

The BBH "Booty Ad Campaign": More designs pre-NYIGF

This last one features the triumphant return of our resident naked dude, Edmund Foley, AKA Mr. Inappropriate.

For your consideration... more designs!

As per usual, I belted out a slew of designs a few days before leaving before a trade show (this time NYIGF.) We'll see how many we actually get to print. Captions courtesy our extensive Tyler Dockery archive of fucked uppedness. Also as per usual, blogger makes the cards designs blurry amd illegible so click on em iffin yr hungry for quality.

SO... FUCKING... EXCITED.

August 21st I will be in NYC and more than likely be standing in line for hours at a Manhattan theater, to watch what promises to be the best movie this year. I'm SO glad Tarantino scooped up Brad Pitt for this on. It's like Tarantino's trying to be the Coen Brothers or something when he cast Pitt as a hysterically over the top character (Burn After Reading?) Brad Pitt's not my favorite actor or anything, but he's on fire in the hands of a wacky director. And no I do not have sex dreams about Brad Pitt. And no there is not a shrine to Brad Pitt on the BBH bathroom vanity.

New Radiohead song for really old dude.

Thom Yorke at a live recording of "Harry Patch (in memory of)" in an abbey.

I'm just gonna steal directly from the words of Thom, so enjoy. It's a haunting and beautiful song (You can by the song for one pound or just hit the play button and listen for free.)

Recently the last remaining UK veteran of the 1st world war Harry Patch died at the age of 111. I had heard a very emotional interview with him a few years ago on the Today program on Radio4. The way he talked about war had a profound effect on me. It became the inspiration for a song that we happened to record a few weeks before his death. It was done live in an abbey. The strings were arranged by Jonny. I very much hope the song does justice to his memory as the last survivor.

It would be very easy for our generation to forget the true horror of war, without the likes of Harry to remind us. I hope we do not forget.

As Harry himself said "Irrespective of the uniforms we wore, we were all victims".

This morning the Today program played the song for the first time and now it is available to download from our website.

The proceeds of this song will go to the British Legion.

To peace and understanding.

Thom
