Atoms For Peace – Amok (CD)
Product Details
Amok arrived in 2013 as one of the more genuinely unexpected supergroup records in recent memory, five musicians with deep roots across rock, electronic, and Brazilian percussion finding a collective pocket that felt organic rather than assembled. Flea's bass work here is some of the most restrained and hypnotic of his career, a far cry from his day job, locking in with Waronker and Refosco to give Yorke and Godrich's electronic textures something warm and unpredictable underneath.
Atoms for Peace is Thom Yorke, Nigel Godrich, Mauro Refosco, Joey Waronker, and Flea. They came together by playing in support of Thom's Grammy nominated album The Eraser. The got a big buzz from those shows and discovered loads of energy from transforming the music from electronic to live, so they carried on for a few days in the studio and decided to make it a loose, on-going thing… since everyone in the band has a day job as well.
