    correct, but that's a bonus disc anyways. the album itself, "in rainbows," is available in its entirety from the download next week.

    he was obviously asking about the freaking album man!!! he was asking about the download only version of the album... i thought that was clearly obvious
    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.

    radiohead is the only band other than pearl jam that can get me this excited over a new studio album. The discbox is going to be well worth the £40 charge on the ol debit card. (Had to get out a currency converter for that one too).

    I think you will be pleased man. There's a lot of guitar in the live versions of the songs, and he piano driven songs aren't Kid A piano-ish but really beautifully arranged. I'm thinking this could be a pretty mellow album for Radiohead.

    While I agree that RH runs the risk of people choosing to pay $0.00 for the cd, however, if too many people take advantage of the bands generosity, it may deter RH from doing the same thing next time.

    They played most of the songs throughout last year's tour, they're very good. Plenty of good rockin.

    It's around 2 dollars to 1 pound. I paid a pound, plus the 45 pence internet charge, and the total on my credit card was $2.96.

    I'll probably wind up buying the CD when it comes out, but there was no way my wife was gonna give me a pass to shell out $80 for the discbox.
    Statistically speaking, you're more likely to be pitied by Mr. T than you are to have feet.

    I'm pretty sure they won't get poor off of the download... I mean, look at the boxset price... people will pay for that, hell, I'm thinking of getting it for my brother for Christmas... that'd be a pretty rad gift.

    Also... the tours are where the money's at... and they know they will have sold out shows, haha.
    If I could, think I would give in.

    15 Step = electronic beats w/ classic-RH-style finger-picked guitars
    Bodysnatchers = a very dark rocker w/ lots of guitar
    Nude = a very pretty song with strings
    Arpeggi = hypnotic song with arpeggiated gutiar parts (hence the title)
    All I Need = slow song with chiming keyboards and intense finale
    Reckoner = heavy rocker with a mean guitar riff
    House Of Cards = mellow guitar-based song with a steady beat
    Jigsaw Falling Into Place = guitar-based rocker with eerie synth lines a'la National Anthem
    Videotape = gorgeous & hypnotic piano-based tune a'la Pyramid Song

    Most of the songs are guitar-based. The only song that would qualify as "electronic" is "15 Step" and even that has some guitars.

    Nobody knows what "Faust Arp" is or what it sounds like.

    umm ya there will be guitars on this album, check out bodysnatchers (probably the 1st single), reckoner is also pretty heavy guitar.
    here's a pretty cool page by rollingstone that previews each song on the new album, including the bonus cd that comes with the discbox.
