20. Radiohead's Amnesiac, Part 3: "Hunting Bears," "Like Spinning Plates," and "Life in a Glasshouse"
Is someone listening in? Today, we round out our discussion on Amnesiac. We find a surprising Brian Eno connection on "Hunting Bears," before spending an inordinate amount of time on "Like Spinning Plates" and "Life in a Glasshouse." Austin finally listens to early Louis Armstrong, while Nick admits to enjoying the music from the latest pop sensation. Plus, we pick out our favorite tracks from the album.
