"Man Of War" Is A Song By The English Rock Band Radiohead Released As A Download On 22 June 2017. Radiohead Wrote It During The Sessions For Their Second Album "The Bends" And Performed It On The "Bends" Tour Singer Thom Yorke Described It As A Homage To James Bond Themes. Radiohead Worked On It During The Sessions For Their Third Album "OK Computer" And Worked On A Version For The 1998 Film "The Avengers" But Abandoned The Recordings. Years Later Radiohead Submitted "Man Of War" For The 2015 James Bond Film "Spectre" But It Was Rejected As It Had Not Been Written For The Film. It Remained Unreleased Until 2017 When It Was Included On The "OK Computer" Reissue "OKNOTOK 1997 2017". "Man Of War" Which Had The Working Title "Big Boots" Was Written During The Sessions For Radiohead's Second Album "The Bends". Radiohead Performed It Several Times On Tour In 1995. Singer Thom Yorke Said It Was A "melodramatic" Homage To James Bond Themes On The Same Tour Radiohead Covered "Nobody Does It Better" The Theme From The 1977 Bond Film "The Spy Who Loved Me". Radiohead Considered Recording "Man Of War" As A B-Side For "The Bends" Single "Street Spirit Fade Out " And Recorded A Version In The First Sessions For Their Third Album "OK Computer" With Producer Nigel Godrich. However The Song Went Unreleased. In March 1998 Radiohead And Godrich Recorded A Version Containing Electronic Elements In Abbey Road Studios For The 1998 Spy Film "The Avengers" But This Was Abandoned. Footage Of The Session Appears In The 1998 Documentary Meeting People Is Easy. Yorke Said "We Were So Messed Up And We Went In Tried To Do The Track But We Just Couldn't Do It. It Was Actually A Really Difficult Period Of Time. We Had A Five-Week Break And All The Shit Was Coming To The Surface ... It Was A Real Low Point After It." In September 2015 Conductor Robert Ziegler Who Had Worked With Radiohead On Their 2011 Album "The King Of Limbs" Tweeted Photos Of The Band Recording With The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The Spectre Production Team Liked The Song But Rejected It When They Discovered It Had Not Been Written For The Film And So Would Be Ineligible For The Academy Award For Best Original Song. Radiohead Suspended Work On Their Ninth Album "A Moon Shaped Pool" To Record Another Song For The Film "Spectre" But This Was Rejected As Too Melancholy. In June 2017 Radiohead Released "Man Of War" On The "OK Computer" Reissue "OKNOTOK 1997 2017" Alongside Two Other Previously Unreleased Tracks "I Promise" And "Lift". Rolling Stone Described "Man Of War" As A "crisp Mid-Tempo Ballad" With Strings Piano And "shards Of Distressed Electric Guitar". It Opens With A Guitar Figure Before A Distorted Chorus. The Lyrics Are "anxious" And "nerve-Racking" With The Refrain "the Worms Will Come For You". The "Man Of War" Music Video Directed By Colin Read Was Released In June 2017 On YouTube. The Video Alternates From Day To Night With The Mood Shifting From "cheerful To Paranoid". It Follows A Man Walking From A Park Who Appears Carefree By Day But "seems To Be Hiding Something" At Night. PopMatters Praised "Man Of War" As The Strongest Of The New Tracks Released On OKNOTOK And Argued That It Could Have Appeared On The Original "OK Computer". The PopMatters Critics Awarded It An Average Score Of 8.3 Out Of 10. Drowned In Sound Described It As "grandiose-Bordering-On-OTT" And The "opposite" Of Radiohead's Other Bond Theme "Spectre".
