Music Banter - The Official Radiohead Thread

I've only had In Rainbows for a few weeks,
and I'd say it definitely rivals OK Computer for their best work ever.
Every track is solid.
I bet Radiohead hate going to Missouri.

Do it yourself Radiohead

Not sure if this is in the right area, please delete or move as appropriate.

Radiohead have done it again by the looks of it. Not content with leading the pack in innovation stakes they've decided to release their next single 'Nude' in a format which will allow fans to remix it themselves.

Taken from their communications:

To celebrate this week's single release. Radiohead have broken up the song 'Nude' into pieces for you to remix.

For those of you who enjoy this sort of thing, you can buy the separate components or 'stems' (bass, voice, guitar, strings/FX and drums) and remix your own version of the song. You can do this by adding your own beats and instrumentation or just remixing the original parts. :

All I can say is fair play to them for thinking outside the box again and kudos on their commitment to music as art.

Why does everyone seem to think In Rainbows is some Radiohead masterpiece?
:banghead:
The most groundbreaking thing about this album is the way they released it.
In Rainbows= Pablo Honey.

8. Radiohead - In Rainbows
I'm going to come out of the woodwork and back up ComingUpRoses with In Rainbows here. Pablo Honey has it's faults but it's a debut & they were finding their feet. With In Rainbows my biggest problem is it sounds like you'd expect a Radiohead album to sound , theres just no surprises (HA!). Every Radiohead album has it's own sound , to me In Rainbows just sounds like a mish mash of all their other albums. And another thing , it sounded virtually identical to Thom Yorke's solo album. Just what do the other 4 bandmembers do exactly?
