New Radiohead Album "In Rainbows"
Hat:
I am looking forward to dancing spastically to this album.
It's kind of fun at parts, and then just ridiculous Radiohead in others.
It's quite short. I'm interested to see if the second disc is just a bonus disc of things, or a coherent continuation of this album, because this just seems like a bit of a tease to me.

Anyone know if thers are any statistical breakdowns of what people ahve been paying, like piecharts or anyhthing? also how much money its generated in total? i donno what to google.
Ocarina654:
I'm curious to statistics as well, but I don't know if there would be any way to find out other than to get it from them.
Radiohead has a brilliant strategy here. I'd bet most people who sorta like their sound (die-hard fans or casual listeners or newcomers), whether they pay for this release or not, will probably want more and will be curious as to the contents of the second disc. This, then, generates more sales.
I know it's worked on me. If I had the cash to spare that box-set would be mine, both for the second disc and the vinyl.
About the album: I find it quite good. However, like Hat said, it is relatively short, and I feel like there should be more to it.
Ishotdanieljohnston:
I actually am not a fan of long albums. 10 tracks has always been my perfect length. I love this album, i was sceptical at foirst, but it just seems richer and more layered on each listen. There doing things they haven't really played around with before- strings, heavy reverb, layered vocals, and it just sounds great. Also, Jonny Greenwood said in an interview this morning that they'd be finding out how much there'd mad thus far tomorrow morning... but i don't know if this will reach the public.
valley_parade:
Not really that big of a Radiohead fan, but this album is pretty damn good!
