Not overly keen on Kid A and Amnesiac, but when Hail to the Thief came out, it was like, "Oh, so that's what they were trying to do."

 

Thom Yorke's album 'The Eraser' is even better.

 

 

I'll check that out today methinks.

I think the old addage about Old Trafford is that if you can't see the Pennines from the ground, it's raining, and if you can see them, then it's about to rain.

amnesiac is the only radiohead album i consistently enjoy and it has their best tune (pyramid song duh).

 

that being said, it'd probably just make my Top 200 albums.

 

also.

 

Nigel Goedrich is an awful producer.

Now that I think about it, Radiohead playing in the rain in 1997 (I think) is regarded as one of the all time great Glastonbury performances, so if it does rain they should hopefully raise their game!

 

I might be travelling in Italy this summer, I see they're playing Milan on the 17th and 18th of June...sold out but there will always be touts around...hmmm.

Radiohead's decision to offer their latest album on a pay-what-you-like basis online "to some extent backfired", U2's manager has said.

 

The majority of fans who downloaded In Rainbows ignored the band's website and acquired it illegally by other means, Paul McGuinness told BBC 6 Music.

 

"Sixty to 70% of the people who downloaded the record stole it anyway, even though it was available for free."

 

U2's next album - due this year - would not follow the same approach, he added.

 

The exact release date was "not clear yet but I would think towards the end of October", Mr McGuinness said.

 

"We will obviously work with whatever technology is available to make the release of the new record as interesting as possible," he added.

 

"[but] for U2, physical sales are still an enormous part of our business and we still sell a lot of actual CDs."

 

The 10 MP3 files for In Rainbows were placed online in October, with fans invited to pay what they thought they were worth, from nothing - plus a small handling fee - to £100.

 

However internet monitoring company Comscore found only 38% of downloaders willingly paid, while the others who accessed Radiohead's website gave nothing.

 

The album went straight to number one in the UK and US when it became available on CD in January.

 

Radiohead's representatives were unavailable for comment.
