wow… excuse the rip i’m about to do but that was absolutely awful. whoever arranged that must have been a neanderthal orchestrating with a wooden club. Seriously… there was no tact in the orchestration. TERRIBLE arranging… no tension, no life, no nothing! awful, tactless things like this really piss me off! Who green lighted this thing? let it be known that whoever did, is ALSO a musical neanderthal. But seriously now, the only thing that this arrangement is missing is a *doof doof doof* track of 4-on the floor techno beat. believe it or not, that would have actually improved it!
love to all,

Well nice that they took on the project, but I thought i sounded utterly boring – not compared to the original but compared to the potential of the hole setup. I think it sounded trapped and boxed somehow.

Ok at best. The beat was unnecessary. I think they missed a lot of notes from the track that could have been splashed all around. Kind of simple. And if that made you cry your emo man. Lol

What an honour to have a brilliant bands music portrayed this way. Lots of resources have gone into this production, unfortunately there are a few things missing, the haunting emotion involved and Thom Yorkes voice. Labour intensive production but doesnt do it for me.
