Day 9 - “Psycho killer, qu’est-ce que c’est?”
Réalisant mon espoir, je me lance vers la gloire, OK.
Play an album with French lyrics or by an artist from Quebec or France. Imaginary bonus brown noser points for a French album by a French-Canadian artist.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven
Some of the sampled vocals are in French, and they're from Montreal. Do I win?

Joy Division - Transmission b/w Novelty
While there is a lot of JD influence in Radiohead, for me it is most prominent on tracks like Transmission.
Radio, live transmission

I was thinking of going for a low-hanging fruit because I want to spin the japanese pressing of True Stories I obtained recently. But then I decided I was in the mood for this...
The Smiths "Strangeways, Here We Come" (1987 Rough Trade; 2009 Rhino reissue)
Both Ed O'Brien and Thom York are big fans according to an interview about their influences in Rolling Stone.
“I only went to Manchester really because of the music scene and really because of the Smiths. And when I got there, within a month I got seven Smiths shows.” — Ed O’Brien
“I think I went [to Smiths shows] about ten or fifteen times. I’d stay with him and we saw a couple of shows.” — Thom Yorke

I think I figured out what David Rawlings is saying to Giillian on the album cover: "You know who I really like, Radiohead! We should bust out our Black Star cover more often. Or at least release it on vinyl."
Gillian Welch ~ The Harrow and the Harvest

Ok, I’ll do that.
