the verison that leaked is the unfinished Feb. mixes.... i was thinking though that the band hadn't even finished the "real" mixes. So the final mix will no doubt be influenced by the very fact that the early mixes leaked...
the band no doubt is reading message boards for opinions...
i just thought this was trippy like traveling back in time to kill your father ... it's not actually like that but you get what i'm saying?

its growing on me. I can see how it'll sound a lot better when mixed and mastered. Some songs are really good, some arent really floating my boat. Its very detached from kid a, but seems to be trying to hold onto something from amnesiac whilst also going back to ok computer days. A lot of the songs remind me of the weaker ones from amnesiac, but saying all that, i thought ok computer was rubbish for a month, then decided it was the work of genius.

i doubt it, as well. think about trying to practice songs, plan a tour, do promotion stuff, and figure out cover art.... alot of time and effort. as well as living their own seperate lives.

well, I was more thinking in the way that they're still working on the stuff.
its unfinished, so whats the point in getting opinions on unfinished music, opinions you've never really asked for in the first place..?

I second that I don't think they listen to the messageboards. Here's why:
The tracks are finished--whether or not they tangibly exist. Radiohead aren't this band that goes out and fools around in the studio a few months before the record comes out. They have to work on the nuances--the small details, the set up of everything. Tracks get mastered, not altered dramatically. So if they did read boards, it wouldn't affect their record significantly. Case in point; a lot of people thought songs like Lift and True Love Waits, and I Promise should have been put on one of their studio records. But to date, many of their most loved tracks haven't been released. And there's plenty of old stuff they've been kicking around that the fans love but that hasn't been put on record yet.

agreed... did no one hear them say "wait until you hear the finished product, it's SO much better"? as in: it's done. as in: they finished it. as in: there is no speculation on the outcome.

i have full confidense in this band to pull out a stunning piece of music. there IS no other discussion, for me. it will be awesome, some will player hate (heh), and the rest will hail it as one of their best.

the leaked recordings rule.
i love backdrifts. they played a song called 'i froze up' on the christmas webcast (they mixed autechre/squarepusher/etc for like two hours, it rocked) i was hoping would be on the album, but alas not :(
reminds me of ok computer with a lot of amnesiac elements to it.
can't wait for the album.

The latest issue of NME has a track by track preview of the mastered version. I scanned it, seeing if I could spot any discrepancies regarding the leaked version - didn't spot a lot though. 'Stand Up...' sounded a little different, maybe.
I think the only things that should be improved are the vocals on some tracks (nonsense lyrics or plain improvised) and some tracks just being too damn short.

well... im sure the gneral TONE of the record isnt changed... just fleshed out more i s'pose... from having glimpsed the mixing/mastering process a bit on my own... i can tell you that a raw recording or a rough mix can sound COMPLETLY different with just some eq and compression.

I'll porbably be patient and wait until it's officially released, I want this album to hit me as a whole, not 'one song at a time' as I'm downloading it.
what was the release date again?'

I really like Hail to the Thief. I really like "Sail to the Moon" and "We Suck Young Blood". Im all for the sad, depressing Radiohead songs. It's sooo good, almost too good.
