What do folk think of the backlash from Radiohead regarding the new album leak? The Greenwood brothers seem really upset about it, as it is still unmixed, and their record company are threatening legal action against any sites with the MP3s. Now I see what they are getting at but the fact is they should have been more careful in making sure that the songs didn`t get into the wrong hands. I mean, HOW did they get leaked? Was it some messenger boy delivering DAT tapes? It seems a little too late. I'll still buy the album though.

You CANNOT stop an album getting out of the studio now. It's impossible, every release which has some interest always finds it's way onto some sort of network a month or so before release. In the Radiohead case, it's a shame as the tracks were rough and unfinished - so give it another couple of weeks and the proper one will be available... ;)

New Radiohead album completely unlistenable Graduate musos achieve ultimate anti-statement by Jon Heal The forthcoming album Try This For Size by rock wailers Radiohead has been joyously greeted as the most unlistenable album of all time.
Reviewers have announced that even after 30 listens, they are still unable to come up with suitable all-encompassing-but-witty-and-urbane-musical-tweaker compound expressions to explain its genius.
Lead singer for the band, Thom Yorke, explained his vision in a press release printed on tin foil. "We've been trying to abdicate quietly from this whole 'fame' bollocks for three years now," he said. "But it's backfired, to be honest. Two albums of atonal nonsense have topped the charts. This time out we've abandoned instruments, logic and all the cheery elements of our output the kids have grown to love. Even we can't listen to this one. Are you people thick or something?"
The single For Heaven's Sake features only a static hum and Yorke whimpering about imaginary slaughterhouses. "Let's see them stick that on CD:UK," muttered guitarist Jonny Greenwood, whose only contribution to the album was flinging clods of wet earth at a miked-up wall.
The album has already gone triple-platinum on advance sales alone, and is expected to top the charts for 11 years.

I must say, the rough mixes sound really really really really good, and I'm a big radiohead fan!

i really dont understand why people waste that moment of putting a new record on for the first time.
i've had so many excellent times just chilling to a new record with friends after i bought it.
examples in recent times have been drukqs and geogaddi. i certainly dont believe in downloading my favourite artists music.

I don't really understand why people can get so upset about people who get the stuff off the net. I don't know about you but since the euro came in to play the prices of just about everything haven't been at all too userfriendly,and it's becoming a "get married and BOTH make money or die" society over here, so get angry that I'm not shelling out a whopping 25 euro for a CD when I can get the same shit for free.

I'm not downloading anything EVER with the intention of burning it to cd. I always download to get an overall look.

i feel kinda bad that it was leaked, and because of the fact that i can't stop listening to it, even if it is a demo.
i know that most people who are going to pay for the cd, is still going to pay even if they had downloaded the demo version of the album beforehand. most people who are not willing to wait and pay for the album, but download it, would not buy the album even if it wasn't on the internet..
