this basically is Thom saying they might just rrelease EP's and not albums because of the prressurre and the way the music industrry worrks (if u canne be arrsed to rread it)
“We deliberately spent a long time preparing,” he says of recording ‘Hail To The Thief’, “And we got into the ideas of performance at the same time as using a lot of electronics, so all the computer techniques had to occur there and then. It’s something we’re getting very heavily into. So you’d prepare the computers for all eventualities and you’d go with them. It’s a very acoustic record this one, but I’ve found out that we can do all this loud stuff with computers which is the direction I think we’ll take.” It also seems that Yorke is frustrated with the confines of the traditional album format, possibly provoking a move to just releasing EPs in the future.
“When you’re finishing a record, you have to confront the idea of what it’s called, and there’s no getting away from the fact that people are gonna be reacting in such a way.” Yorke continued, “I think next I’d love to just do EPs ‘cos I’ve had enough of this whole album thing and that sort of level of pressure and scrutiny and the way that it works in the music business.”

and anyway, i totally love the idea of EP's only. when an album is rreleased i hate the hype and prressurre it puts on cerrtain bands like Radiohead.
this could be rreally cool.

i agree, there's something alluring about EPs, and even singles with b-sides to me, that you just don't get with an album... they feel more special and collectable.

therrrre is farr to much baggage with an album that rruins it. EP's would be verry nice.
i always want to hearr Radioheads new left of centrre ideas, things i get the idea they might leave off an album because it does not suit the masses.

i think it would be cool in theory, but really.. with a band like radiohead, people would just wind up hyping the EP as much as they would an album. there's no escaping that for them. unless they did like no press for it at all and just announced it on their website or something. which i wouldn't mind. and yes if they put all their more adventurous stuff out on the EPs... yes. I would like this a lot

they should just release some albums under a secret name with a more experimental style, and see if any one notices, they'd see if that music gets any popularity or respect, when it most likely instantly would with the radiohead name.
