Tom Skinner

Tom Skinner, drummer for UK alt-rock group The Smile and the now defunct(?) British jazz outfit Sons of Kemet, is set to release a new solo effort next month.  Pre-order the upcoming "Kaleidoscopic Visions" LP here from Brownswood Recordings and listen to the experimental jazz of the title track below.

The Smile

The Smile surprise released a couple of new songs the other day that are, for the moment, only available on a 12" at select record stores.  Word on the street is though, that we'll be able to order the record online here in a couple of days.  Check out the vinyl rip of the A-side, "Don't Get Me Started," below in the meantime.

The Smile

When they dropped new single "Bending Hectic" a few months back, it seemed evident that a new album from The Smile would find its way to us sooner than later, and now we've got a date.  "Wall of Eyes" hits in January.  Pre-order it here from XL Recordings and listen to the eerie and melancholy title track below.

The Smile

Hey, we got a new track from The Smile today.  And it's pretty damn good too.  Check out "Bending Hectic" below and download it here from XL Recordings.

The Smile

We all knew it was coming, it was just a question of when.  And now that question is answered with the announcement of the debut full-length album from Radiohead and Sons of Kemet side project The Smile.  We've heard a few singles so far, and the latest is the pretty and melancholy "Free in the Knowledge."  Check the video for that out below and pre-order the upcoming "A Light for Attracting Attention" LP here from XL Recordings.  The digital album comes out in three weeks with the vinyl following in June.

And we got another single from Radiohead side project The Smile with "Skrting on the Surface."  That's three excellent singles now fellas, so how about an album drop?  Anyway, check out the video for the new track below and get it here from XL.

The Smile

We got a new track from The Smile yesterday, the group comprised of Radiohead's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood and Sons of Kemet's Tom Skinner.  There's a jazzy groove working on "The Smoke," and i am here for it.  Check it out below and download it here via XL Recordings.  Full-length drops when?

The Smile

Speaking of Radiohead, The Smile released their first studio recording yesterday, and it's pretty great.  The side project features Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood along with Tom Skinner from Sons of Kemet.  Check out the electric guitar driven "You Will Never Work in Television Again" below and download it here.  A full-length album should arrive sometime soon one would think.
