About This Track

My Iron Lung is a 1994 EP, including the song of the same name, by the alternative rock band Radiohead. The title track more famously appeared later on the band’s 1995 album, The Bends. The EP also contains outtakes from then-ongoing recording sessions for The Bends, compiling songs that were issued as B-sides on two separate “My Iron Lung” CD singles in the UK and other markets. My Iron Lung was originally released in EP form with all eight songs only in Australia, but it is currently in print worldwide. The record is seen as a bridge between the relative simplicity of their first album, 1993’s Pablo Honey, and the greater sonic depth the band sought in their later ’90s work, beginning with The Bends. The “My Iron Lung” single charted at #24 in the UK, a decline from “Creep“‘s peak of #7. It also received little radio or MTV attention in the United States, especially as compared with “Creep”.

    Before I really got into Radiohead, this was the only song I liked from them. Even after going through most of their studio discography, it still kick serious ass.

    I've always thought that Black Star was infinitely more Muse-like than this. That being said I love how schizophrenic this song gets.

    Fuck Muse [2] So Muse based their career on My Iron Lung and Coldplay based their career on High and Dry.

    Yeah... no. It doesn't really sound like The Killing Moon.

    My brain says I'm receiving pain. Probably my favourite Radiohead song of them all.

    it doesn't nick the melody of the killing moon at all lmao. some people have very little to worry about. just enjoy the song [2] There's about 2 chords that sound the same but that's it lol. I hate it when people spend more time comparing a song to another song than actually fucking listening to them.

    It does sound vaguely reminiscent of 'The Killing Moon'... the jangly guitar bit reminds me of Siouxsie & the Banshees' cover of 'Dear Prudence'.

    Anyone else realize this song nicks the whole melody of Echo & The Bunnymen's "The Killing Moon"? Muse doesn't seem so bad after all do they?
