Thom Yorke's 'Confidenza' soundtrack finds its own compelling arc as a front-to-back album.
’s latest soundtrack opens with “The Big City,” an electro-symphonic slumber of synth bleeps and vocal blips. The album ends with “On the Ledge,” which evokes the sublime nightmare of a free-jazz brass band strutting down a portal into hell.
The vocal pieces, naturally, raise the immediate goosebumps. On “Four Ways in Time,” Yorke flutters in octaves over trembling strings and the muted, punctuated thump of Smile drummer Tom Skinner. “Knife Edge” is pleasingly hissy and off-the-grid—an imagined lullaby warped by memory, with Yorke cooing in tandem with chiming keys that conjure a music box in a dusty, boarded-up attic.
