Recording
The Radiohead singer, Thom Yorke, and the lead guitarist, Jonny Greenwood, debuted "Bodysnatchers" in May 2006 at their performance for the Big Ask at KOKO in London.[1] For their album In Rainbows, Radiohead recorded "Bodysnatchers" with the producer Nigel Godrich at Tottenham House, a dilapidated country house in Marlborough, Wiltshire.[2] Yorke said the atmosphere of the house was captured in the recording.[2] According to Yorke, "Bodysnatchers" is the only track on the album that was recorded as a live take with the band members playing together.[2]
Composition
Yorke described "Bodysnatchers" as a combination of the German band Neu! and "dodgy hippy rock", likening it to the Australian band Wolfmother.[3] He said it was inspired by Victorian ghost stories, the 1972 novel The Stepford Wives and the feeling of "your physical consciousness trapped without being able to connect fully with anything else".[4]
