Snake

A reclusive genius with obsessive creative focus and a vicious wit.

Thom Yorke is the quintessential snake: deeply introverted, intensely meticulous about his craft, and famously resistant to the machinery of the music industry — most iconically when Radiohead released 'In Rainbows' on a pay-what-you-want model and later removed their catalogue from Spotify. He recoils from publicity, rarely gives interviews, and guards his private life fiercely, yet channels all of that hidden intensity into strikingly original, obsessive art. Beneath the shy, reclusive exterior lies a sharp, unsettling creative intelligence that consistently unsettles and surprises.
