what’s the deal with this radiohead-seinfeld mashup?
it’s real and it’s spectacular
by gabriel bell
The comedy of Seinfeld. The music of Radiohead. Not only did these two valued additions to the Western Canon rise out late 20th-century pre-millennium tension, but both ask probing existential questions (without offering answers) in brilliant, affecting ways.
Thus, it seems fated that some genius somewhere would superimpose these two texts in a new, arresting work of art. Behold, Radiohead’s 1994 “My Iron Lung” set to Jonathan Wolff’s 1989 Seinfeld theme. It’s so very necessary.
