Neat, the art from Radiohead at this time drew influences from a myriad of sources, even Authors like J.G. Ballard and Don DeLillo. I see a lot of postmodern influence in this art. Feelings of paranoia isolation and the maze like funnels and labyrinth nature of the cityscape alone, the words in selection 30 could be seen as a poem of sorts as well, heavy but thoughtful stuff! I also tied the art pieces to the two albums each painting to each song title. I have listened to some of these songs hundreds of times since release so they were "chosen" thoughtfully and with the total work of the music in mind. Kind of a demo of the art book with the music in mind, or a multimedia Mixtape of sorts :)
They so are! Powerful images obviously in tune with the bands subject matter sometimes enhancing the theme and motif of lyric and song! Interesting art book!
Very fascinating , particularly like 19,25,30, 31, altogether a great journal

The drawings especially are fantastic!
