He actually added quite a lot of stuff. In \u2018Gangsters,\u2019 there\u2019s a mad percussive synth riff that comes into that. He added that. He likes having fun playing synthesizers and whatever he can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tYorke and Pritchard previously shared the first singles, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/thom-yorke-mark-pritchard-new-song-back-in-the-game-1235266085\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Back in the Game<\/a>\u201d and \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-features\/thom-yorke-new-album-mark-pritchard-interview-1235293063\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">This Conversation Is Missing Your Voice<\/a>,\u201d from Tall Tales, arriving May 9.
