In OK Computer, the guitar was already moving towards a tone generator as well as a riff generator.

We are kind of one step removed, not really in the center of things.

I've seen the Mass For The End Of Time in concert but my brother's the more musical one really.

It's a full on job just looking for human social responsibility.

One of the books we read a few years ago that had a big effect on us was Repeated Takes by Michael Chanan.

The thing about rock is that people are not just interested in bands because of where they want to go. It's where they want to escape from that matters.

I trained as a classical guitarist but that was it.

With Dollars And Cents on the album, we had it as a band jam and I sometimes spend evenings playing with records over the top of things we were working on to see what works.

I mean, I'm in a band, we're reasonably successful, I've got a very nice suit - I'm not even a bad person- so why can't I get a shag?

The trick with computers I think, is to approach old and new things with the same reverence as you would like your favourite chair and not be seduced by the constant innovation otherwise you never do anything.

Jonny doesn't want to do TV interviews because he thinks that he comes across as an idiot.

Limits are very important.

We try to treat everywhere we play differently and that's really important.

If you're working on a computer and you're editing bass, it looks like a warm curvy, sort of feminine object.

You should approach a sequencer like you would a Dobro guitar.

I don't listen to much modern composition.

People need to focus on bigger issues instead of whether George Bush is an idiot or not.

I don't think anything's underground anymore. And I think that's a good thing. Everything is up for grabs.

There's no point apologizing about where you come from.

I'm going to have classical piano lessons next.

With our website we didn't want people to come to our site and find out about Radiohead. We wanted them to come to our site and find out about what Radiohead are finding out about.

For me that's what's fascinating about the internet, that aggregate thing.

Our site should be like Paddington Station with a much better version of WH Smith's in it.

In Kid A and Amnesiac, the guitar becomes one more texture, difficult to separate from other textures.

When we rehearse, we're always trying to aim for something else. But we never quite succeed in getting there.

Coltrane would do what you'd get a Roland Pro Tools module to do but with a group of jazz musicians.

Motion Picture Soundtrack on Kid A was another Coltrane inspiration.

Bill Withers and Curtis Mayfield, those are the people who informed me in playing the bass.

We stuck the record head so it kept on recording over and over on top of itself and played keyboard notes into it to create this ghost repetition melody.

The guitar is a much more efficient machine than a computer. More responsive.

My page is junk, because I hate putting anything to do with me on the site, it just feels wrong.

Phil is a real drummer's drummer.

Warp was important to Thom about two years ago when he was looking for different sounds.

You should approach technological things in a nostalgic way.

I'm thinking of going to programming school. Learn how to sit down at any computer and learn to do anything on it. That's all I have left and have interest in.

I said, 'Okay, it's the year 2000, I'm getting a computer and a Palm Pilot.' I know how to check my e-mail, and I've listed some phone numbers on it. Half the time the battery has gone out so I can't use it.

To better understand why you need a personal computer, let's take a look at the pathetic mess you call your life.

I've got a computer, but I won't go near it.

All sorts of computer errors are now turning up. You'd be surprised to know the number of doctors who claim they are treating pregnant men.

All we can do when we think of kids today is think of more hours of school, earlier age at the computer, and curfews. Who would want to grow up in that world?

If you put garbage in a computer nothing comes out but garbage. But this garbage, having passed through a very expensive machine, is somehow ennobled and none dare criticize it.

Then in my early teens, when the home computer bubble was blowing, I had one of the first, an Acorn Atom, and used to write primitive adventures on that.

I compose my own stuff. I've been writing songs with words. I've been playing more on the keyboard because I can transpose it to sheet music on the computer.

I always say that my favorite game was Original Adventure, published by both Microsoft and Apple Computer back in 1980.

To err is human - and to blame it on a computer is even more so.

I think computer science, by and large, is still stuck in the Modern age.

It would be nice to design a real briefcase - you open it up and it's your computer but it also stores your books.
