Adios, Gu: Never has Baker-Berry sparkled like this

|

Philip Woram / The Dartmouth Editor's note: In honor of Baker-Berry being de-Gu-ified this past weekend, the staff has attempted to answer the following question: "What have we, The Dartmouth's Arts staff, learned from this recent hair-brained commission by the College?" The responses that follow probably won't please many art history professors, except the underground resistance that's been brewing in the basement of Carpenter.

The Capitol Steps employ outdated jokes, easy gags

|

Courtesy of the Hopkins Center After watching the Capitol Steps perform Friday night in Spaulding Auditorium, I can definitively say that the musical political satire group hardly delivered a capital performance.

In many ways it is a signal of what is to come over the next ten tracks, in Radiohead's most accessible and simple album since 1995's "The Bends." On "In Rainbows," Yorke and company return to making music for the sake of music, instead of allowing experimentation or politics to rule the record. Still, despite being more lyrically accessible and in many ways more mainstream, "In Rainbows" does not ignore Radiohead's technical and stylistic expansion over the past 12 years.
