Carnations? My all-too-visual mind made a picture of Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood as flowers.
I do know several of the artists outside of their work on the soundtrack, but not all. It's particularly the guys in Venus in Furs that I know well. Thom and Jonny are in Radiohead. Andy Mackay is in Roxy Music (the band whose songs they are mostly doing). David Gray is a solo artist (check out his "White Ladder" album for a good intro to him). If you like their songs on the soundtrack, start with the eponymous first Roxy Music album.
The other made up band is Wylde Ratttz which is comprised of members of The Stooges (the recently departed Ron Asheton), Sonic Youth (Thurston Moore and Steve Shelley), Minutemen (the great Mike Watt) and Mudhoney (Mark Arm). If you want more music like theirs, the first three Stooges' albums (The Stooges, Fun House, and Raw Power) are all classics and exceptionally influential on about a billion punk bands that came after them.
Shudder to Think I am unaware of outside of the soundtrack.

They're a pair of solo performances by Thom Yorke from the October 2002 Bridge School benefit concerts. It's just Thom playing either acoustic guitar or piano (Neil Young's piano!). He closes the second day's performance with a beautiful version of Neil's "After the Goldrush" which he'd been playing a verse of with RH for awhile as an intro to "Everything In It's Right Place" but this is the full song and sounds that much sweeter that it's played on Neil's piano. Neil and Mrs. Young are the organizers of the annual benefit shows.
I also have a couple of other shows that are Thom and Jonny playing very stripped down versions of RH songs. Thom plays acoustic and Jonny plays his Telecaster but straight into the amp with no effects. It's definitely a different sound. These shows have been great for learning how to play a lot of their songs.

It is haunting.
Brilliant musicians doing a brilliant interpretation of a brilliant song by another brilliant musician. It is VERY unique.

Brice I am SO happy to know someone else knows The Kronos Quartet, and doubly so that it's you.
They are outstanding musicians. I have a great live performance that they did backing Tom Waits which is just stunning to listen to.

I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. - Edgar Allan Poe
Bunch together a group of people deliberately chosen for strong religious feelings, and you have a practical guarantee of dark morbidities expressed in crime, perversion, and insanity. - H.P. Lovecraft
