    Yeah, "In Rainbows" was available at your local record store as of 1/1/08.

    But who really doesn't consider 10/10/07 the most appropriate release date, as that's when the digital download became available where the vast, vast majority of us got a hold of it?

    Same with Bon Iver. For me that was a 2007 album too same as In Rainbows.

    Surprised AC/DC hasnt gotten much love for Black Ice. Anyone who likes what AC/DC has done prior in the Brian Johnson era should enjoy Black Ice.

    All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
