Radiohead Share “Lift” Video Featuring a Strange Elevator Ride

OKNOTOK Out Now via XL

Sep 12, 2017 Radiohead

This summer Radiohead released a deluxe reissue of their landmark 1997 album OK Computer in honor of its 20th anniversary. It was dubbed as OKNOTOK and included a remastered version of the original album, eight B-sides, and three previously unreleased tracks from the era: “I Promise,” “Lift,” and “Man of War.” Now the band has shared a video for “Lift.” Oscar Hudson directed the video which features frontman Thom Yorke taking a long elevator ride that turns surreal at the end. Watch it below.

In terms of OKNOTOK tracks, we were previously treated to the string-backed ballad “I Promise,” as well as a strange video for the song featuring an android’s head riding a city bus at night, and an equally off-kilter video for “Man of War.”

Radiohead released their acclaimed latest album, A Moon Shaped Pool, last May. It landed at #2 on Under the Radar‘s Top 100 Albums of 2016 list.
