    i went through the rolling stone preview. i'll give it a shot. it sounds better than hail to the thief did... got better dynamics and more distinct and memorable songs.

    Well if you like the preview I'm sure you'll like the album because some of those youtube vids have pretty unflattering sound.

    The amazing thing to me is that *all* of the new songs made the album and bonus disc, in addition to some leftovers from previous albums. There won't be too many leftover songs after this. In fact there are only 3 songs left that I can think of...Lift, Big Boots and Follow Me Around. All 3 of those songs are excellent so one can only hope that they show up on an outtakes/rarities CD some day.

    Gosh darnit you're right! I forgot about "Spooks". Although it's possible that it may turn out to be one of the unknown songs. "Jigsaw" was called "Open Pick" last year, and at first I thought they had ditched it. :(

    My daughter has a spot on a college radio station and asked me for some "LP7" live stuff because someone else was playing it this week and since she's been raised to be a proper Radiohead (and Pearl Jam) fan, it would be wrong not to include some on her show tonight. I rushed a CD to her, which I ended with Spooks, because I'm sure one of those unfamiliar titles has to be that. :)

    I'd make a bet that it'd be Tuesday at midnight (AKA Wednesday).
    If I could, think I would give in.
  • leafs4everleafs4ever Posts: 833
    remember that radiohead is in the uk, so they will probably be releasing the album around midnight Tuesday, UK time. I think that's 5 hours ahead of EST so, i'm gunna be checking around 7-8pm tuesday. I could be wrong though

    I initially ordered just the download (paid $10 US) for it (equivalent to the 9.99 for an album on iTunes) because I didn't want to pay $81 for the "disc box" which I thought was just the physical CD and nothing else. I figured they were charging a huge amount to offset all the people that would be putting 0.00 as their donation.

    Then, I read the description for the "disc box" and it includes a ton of stuff: the downloadable songs, 2 heavy weight vinyl set (I am a sucker for heavy weight vinyl), book, slip case, 2 CD set w/bonus tracks, artwork/photos. On top of that, shipping is included in the price which alone would be around $15 U.S. normally. Damn, should've read the descriptions for both before hand.

    I'll give the mp3s I paid for to my brother-in-law and give him a "guilt free" set of the songs.

    No one really seems to know. My guess is that it's a fan page.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    No second e-mail here either. I did see where it will be a 160kbs download. Sounds good enough for me for the next 2 months until my disc box comes in.

    So, that puts you about 5 hours ahead of me here in the CST. I'm really hoping that they put it out at midnight in the UK

    i think NME said it'd come out about 5 am US time in comparison to the GMT (i think 10 AM?)

    I was really hoping to hear it tonight.

    Same here. Then again, what really does anyone besides the band know as to when they are going to release it. Radiohead is no fan of NME so I don't think they talked to them.

    I'm not a big fan of 160 cbr, but I won't complain too much since I love how Radiohead is releasing this.

    I'd just love to see a V0 copy.

    edit, this should be 5am EST.

    It will be a nice teaser until the discbox arrives.
