Reception


"You Will Never Work in Television Again" was compared favourably by multiple publications to Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood's main band Radiohead's earlier work.[4][5] Tyler Golsen of Far Out Magazine gave the song an 8.3/10, calling it "a solid and powerful rocker that lets the guys in Radiohead just hang loose and rock out for the first time in a while".[5] The NPR writer Brian Burns likened it to the post-punk acts Mission of Burma and Swell Maps,[6] while the Guitar World writer Jackson Maxwell compared it to Sonic Youth.[7]


Music video


The band released a lyric video alongside the single directed by Duncan Loudon.[8] The video features the song's lyrics scrolling past on a teleprompter. Far Out Magazine described the video as "eerie".[5]
