Truth Ray by Thom Yorke (Radiohead) is played in the key of A#m. Originally recorded in the sounding key of A#m, 'Truth Ray' by Thom Yorke (Radiohead) is best approached with a Capo placed on Fret 1, enabling guitarists to execute friendly Am shapes while fully preserving the studio pitch. The A#m barre chord can be voiced as a partial three-string triad on upper strings to preserve momentum and prevent fingertip strain while practicing. The primary progression challenge lies in switching between A#m and Fm: keep your fingers hovering close to the fretboard rather than flying off between changes. Set your metronome at an initial practice tempo of 79 BPM in 4/4 time to master the '↓ - ↓ ↑ - ↑ ↓ ↑' strumming groove, emphasizing steady downstrokes on beats one and three before accelerating toward the studio speed of 110 BPM.
