Bangers + Mash

Recorded during the In Rainbows sessions with Nigel Godrich and the rest of Radiohead. It appeared on the In Rainbows (Disk 2) release as the set’s seventh track. It served as one of the most abrasive, high-energy cuts from the In Rainbows material and stood out from the album’s more restrained core. Released as part of the second disc attached to the original In Rainbows project, it reinforced the scale of the band’s 2007 release campaign. It has remained a fan-favorite deep cut from the In Rainbows era and a regular point of reference for the band’s harder-edged side. Its reputation grew further through live performances and later archival releases that kept the song in circulation.
