There There

by Radiohead

There There cover art

Anchored by heavy, tribal tom-tom drumming played by multiple band members simultaneously, the track marked a celebrated return to more traditional guitar-based rock after a period of intense electronic experimentation. Its brooding, suspenseful progression eventually erupts into a searing guitar climax. The song's folkloric lyrical themes were heavily inspired by the children's television series 'Bagpuss'.
