Dancing Thom Yorke Dances To Everything
The music world lit up yesterday when alternative rock Gods Radiohead released their 8th album, The King Of Limbs, a day early, having announced the album only four days prior after a three-and-a-half year gap. The band also released a music video for skittery, seductive lead single "Lotus Flower," featuring singer Thom Yorke in bowler hat, writhing like a wacky waving flailing arm inflatable tube man. His unique sense of dance is so entrancing, some have taken to imitating the video, while others made some creative edits to the video; the results are now compiled on the Dancing Thom tumblr. Here are some of our favorites:

Pencil This In
READINGS: Sebastian Junger (co-owner of the Half King) will be reading there tonight from his latest book, A Death in Belmont. The book ties into Junger's own life eerily - back in 1963 when Junger was a small boy growing up in Belmont, Massachusetts, Bessie Goldberg was murdered down the street from his home. Following the stories of the two different men suspected of committing the crime (and one of them working at Junger's family home the very day of the murder), Junger brings his inquisitive eye to the story, and its unsolved ending. Junger is a fascinating writer and the Half King is fast becoming one of the city's best reading venues, so it should be a great night. - Krissa Corbett Cavouras
