Chicago: More Bars in More Places

I thought that was just for the super-special edition with the vinyl and the bonus cd and artwork and stuff.

I can give you some nonsense, though, if that's what you want...

Radiohead brought down the Berlin Wall
Radiohead has an associate's degree in Early Childhood Education
Radiohead is the beer of choice for 48-year-old accountants
Radiohead makes every sandwich taste like a million bucks

Oh, I thought that was Amanda asking "Jordan, do you care about the new Radiohead album." But no, it was Jordan asking himself...

Oh you're right, there are only the download and the super-bonus set planned for release at this point.

So you can pay either 1) $80 to order the set from the UK, or 2) whatever you want for the download. Hmmm, tough choice.

(sarcasm)

I'm going to do the download. I am thinking I'll pay $9.00

I'm an insane bastard and ordered the $80 "discbox". The artwork looks pretty nice, plus the bonus songs sold me. Wouldn't have happened if I didn't get an unexpected bonus at work though.

Where can you order the stuff anyway? On their blog I only found a link the their homepage, which only links back to the blog.

I am going to download it for $0 dollars and if I like it I will probably buy it eventually, assuming there is a normally-priced cd or vinyl release at some point.

From what I've heard, a regular CD release will be in stores sometime in '08.

It's pretty cool they're doing all this without a label too. More established bands should handle their own business without a label.

I have not been excited about Radiohead in quite a few years -- Kid A was released October 3, 2000, which makes it officially seven years since I cared. But I have to love this marketing ploy. Brilliant.

Yeah, now that they don't need the marketing, this is exactly what they should be doing. I wonder if they paid for their studio time out of pocket?

Their last three records are my favorite.

I haven't really been excited by the last few Radiohead albums, but I think it has more to do with me than with them. I still really respect them a lot.

Though each album has at least one or two really exciting songs on it.

Now I want to listen to the last couple so I can reassess them. I don't even remember which songs are on which. Not on my ipod so I guess I'm waiting until I get home.

I accidentally wiped my iPod this morning when I plugged it into my work computer. All the newest stuff is gone, and all the stuff on my work machine is all I have for the day.

Sigh. Life will continue.

Hold on for one more day!!!

"National Anthem" and "Idioteque" were the jaaaaam on Kid A.

xp lol

that lady-bowl haircut was insanely popular and totally unflattering

Yeah, Idioteque is definitely one of their best songs. Is National Anthem the one with the horn section? I like the one with the horn section.

How long till Jeff shows up and shits on Radiohead?

Radiohead is perfect, perfect reading, working, and train music.

Esp the last 3 albums.

Everything in its Right Place is my favorite Kid A track.

I liked the Thom Yorke album last year... liked it a good bit.

I like "I Could Be Wrong," especially the midsong breakdown and what follows.

Yeah, there a couple tracks on the TY album that I love.

Thx Nick, I made my 0 pound purchase.

wow. Radiohead's site is dragging.

I'm waiting for it to show up on oink. (As per usual.)

UH

Kenan, please don't suck. Go and buy it from their website for SOME MONEY AT LEAST.

I'll buy the CD version when it comes out, and that deluxe vinyl sounds pretty awesome. I'll give them my money, don't worry.

OK. I just think it would be really jerky to violate the honor system (of sorts).

No, I agree! They're going out on a limb here, and I like that.

just pay $1.

i mean, it seems silly to get stuff on OINK when you can get the real juice from the source, and for pennies.

And it would be cool to give them the traffic.

It's just that Kenan, you're wrong, and I want you to know that!

Not the first time, won't be the last.

I"m just joshing you. We had this interaction once before.

I wonder if there will be a way to get the b-sides/bonus tracks officially without buying the $80 box. Probably not (for a few years anyway).

Also, I love ten track albums!

I feel like the lady bowl haircut, as rocked by Demi Moore and that blonde chick from Melrose Place above, was all about declaring, "I am so beautiful that even this heinous haircut can't make me unattractive." sort of like those awful shapeless dresses that were trendy all summer.

oh that's not the blonde lady from Melrose Place. it's Chyna Phillips. same diff, though.

oh, but you were right the first time! it's both of them!
truly heinous haircut

this girl in my hs class got that haircut and WOW was it bad. it was trying to be sort of pixie-ish but they got it all wrong and it was 100% bowl. she was not happy.

i think it's made extra bad by the fact that the back was so short. if the back had been just a little longer it might have achieved a shaggy cuteness...maybe. but the back was extremely shorn and the front was wall-of-bangs. yuk.

has anyone ever seen that blonde lady from Melrose Place and Chyna Phillips in the same place at the same time?

i am no one to talk, tho -- i had an a-sym.

hahaha no...but they might have been in a lifetime movie together as twinz
