Our season long dissection of Radiohead's In Rainbows continues with its fourth track "Weird Fishes / Arpeggi" - an incredibly intricate musical arrangement that's considered among the band's best. We dissect the layered, multi-pattern guitar parts that create the song's immersive, oceanic soundscape as well as the potential symbolism of Thom Yorke's lyrics about being stuck at the bottom of the sea.
