    There are two options at the moment:

    - Free Digital download of the first half of the album (released Oct. 10)

    - 40 pounds/80 dollars for a box set: 2-CD's, 2-LP's, hardcover book, etc... (released Dec. 10)

    the digital download is released october 10? or the album is released october 10?

    Is there going to be anyway to buy the vinyl without all the book stuff. Radiohead vinyl is usually near thirty bucks, which I'll pay; but I don't want to shell out eighty dollars on one album. Hopefully they will present us with some middle of the road options soon, i.e. between $0 and $80. This is super exciting by the way.

    Would you expect your favorite football/artist/comedian to perform for free?

    They put time/effort into this album and believe you should show some respect, esp when they are cool enough to allow you to name a price.

    (not that i really give a shit)
    If Radiohead were seriously worried about this do you think they would be allowing people to set their own prices?

    They would give it away as a free download if they did not care.

    They care bc they need to pay for bandwidth.

    The download is October 10th. The physical CD will be out in December. For now there are pre-orders on the deluxe edition. I'm sure there will be other options at some point.

    This is incredible that they can pull shit off like this. No one had any idea that te album was so close to being released. This is insane. I'm buying thr Disc-Box.

    Guys calm down! It's a hoax. No doubt in my mind on this one. They're great about getting music to fans, but no way in hell is this possible, name a price?

    It's not a hoax. It's very real. Go to the website on the first page of this thread.

    haha no hoax...it's on their main page + it's been up for about 6 hours. if it were some scam it would've been overthrown by now. all of the purchasing pages are exactly the same as radiohead's were a week ago when i bought something. leave it to them to blow everyone's mind..considering reports & speculation were saying it wouldn't be out until around mid-march. this is incredible, yet somewhat reminiscent of Machina II...but still. i'm incredibly excited. discbox already on order, but i'll admit i cringed upon pushing the confirm.

    HOLY $HIT GUYS!

    Some band just jumped over The Clash and Pavement as my second favorite band of all-time right behind Pearl Jam. Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood are the dudes!

    Way to go Radiohead!

    This is awesome. They've sprung the whole thing on us long since general resignation to a release sometime in the first half of 2008 being the best we could hope for. :)

    Can't wait for the discbox to come in December, even though that's gonna be at least two and a half months away. The second cd looks awesome, completely rules out the need for singles by having everything that could have been a b-side on it. So the £40 pounds covers the whole album on cd, on vinyl and the singles all in the one package!

    This on top of all the PJ stuff we've been blessed with lately is giving rise to some good vibes...


    And fuck the record companies too!! Nice. :D

    Videotape is easily the only song that could be considered to close this album. I cannot wait for this.

    Well, you have to wait until December for the EP, the album is next week. That seems fair to me.

    So what's everyones favorite of the new songs (live versions)? I'm leaning towards 15 Step, All I need, or Videotape.

    You're right there!

    Videotape will be great obviously.

    My fav of all the songs though is Open Pick, now called Jigsaw Falling Into place...
