The Smile, the experimental rock project featuring Radiohead’s Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood alongside drummer Tom Skinner, has announced their anticipated new album titled “Cutouts,” set for release in October 2024. However, it is available for pre-order. The trio has also dropped two new singles, “Foreign Spies” and “Zero Sum,” displaying their taste of what’s to come.
“Foreign Spies” starts with a tempo that slowly follows to the singer’s voice, leading into describing the area of the world. The visuals of the music video sheds appeal into VHS filtering, resembling closely to vapor-wave.
“Zero Sum” carries a melody very similar to gaming music as the artist showcases the visuals of monster-like imagery of a pixelated figure walking in different paces.
As The Smile prepares for this next chapter, it’s evident they continue to lead the way in musical innovation, poised to deliver an album that resonates profoundly with listeners everywhere.
