The Eraser (song) : ウィキペディア英語版
The Eraser

''The Eraser'' is the debut solo album by Thom Yorke of the English alternative rock band Radiohead, released on 10 July 2006 on the independent label XL Recordings. It was produced by longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich.
The album comprises electronic music Yorke recorded during Radiohead's 2004 hiatus and between their 2005 rehearsals. The lyrics express Yorke's political concerns; "Harrowdown Hill" was written about the death of David Kelly, a whistleblower who allegedly committed suicide after telling a reporter that the British government had falsely identified weapons of mass destructions in Iraq. The album artwork is by longtime Radiohead cover artist Stanley Donwood; it was inspired by the legend of King Canute failing to command the ocean, which Yorke likened to government attitudes towards climate change.
''The Eraser'' debuted at number three on the UK Albums Chart and number two on the American ''Billboard'' 200. It was named one of the best albums of 2006 by the ''NME'', ''Rolling Stone'' and the ''Observer'', and was nominated for the 2006 Mercury Music Prize and the 2007 Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album.
Two singles were released from the album: "Analyse" and "Harrowdown Hill". It was followed in the same year by a B-sides EP, ''Spitting Feathers'', and in 2009 a remix album, ''The Eraser Rmxs.'' In 2010, to perform the album live, Yorke formed Atoms for Peace with musicians including Godrich and Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea.
==Recording==

In 2004, after finishing the tour for their sixth album ''Hail to the Thief'' (2003)'','' Radiohead went on a hiatus. Songwriter Thom Yorke began recording ''The Eraser'' with longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich in late 2004, and continued work throughout 2005 between Radiohead rehearsals. He told Pitchfork: "I've been in the band since we left school and never dared do anything on my own ... It was like, 'Man, I've got to find out what it feels like,' you know?" The album was recorded in Radiohead's Oxford studio, Godrich's studio in Covent Garden and Yorke's home.
Yorke wanted to "approach and engage with computers and not a lot else, and yet still have lots of life and energy in the music." To generate ideas, he cut and pasted clips at random from Radiohead's library of original samples.〔 To create the title track, he sampled piano chords played by Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood and cut them into a new order.〔 "And it Rained All Night" contains an unrecognisable sample from "The Gloaming" (from ''Hail to the Thief''), and "Black Swan" samples a recording made by Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien and drummer Philip Selway in 2000. Yorke said "Harrowdown Hill" had been "kicking around" during the ''Hail to the Thief'' recording sessions in 2002, but that "there was no way that was going to work with the band."〔
Yorke initially intended to create instrumental tracks,〔 but added vocals at the encouragement of Godrich, who said "because it was predominantly electronic, I had a really good excuse to make his voice dry and loud." Yorke found it difficult to write lyrics to loops of music, saying he could not "react spontaneously and differently every time"; to finish the lyrics, he translated the music to guitar and piano and generated new musical components in the process.〔
Yorke saved one song recorded in the ''Eraser'' sessions, "Last Flowers", for the bonus disc of Radiohead's seventh album ''In Rainbows'' (2007). Another song worked on in the ''Eraser'' sessions, "The Hollow Earth", was finished later and released as a single in 2009.
