atomsforpeace-608x471Check out this video of Thom Yorke doing his best Ian Curtis at an Atoms for Peace show in Oakland last night.  Spoiler alert: it's thoroughly fucking awesome.  Two days ago, I wrote about Conan O'Brien covering Radiohead's "Creep," and now Yorke has paid similar (although less funny) respect to a great band by covering "Love Will Tear Us Apart."  Will we see Joy Division picking up the daisy chain in a few days and doing their own homage to someone they...oh, wait.  Shit.  I guess the buck stops here, but it's too good of a performance for me to complain too much.
