Radiohead Announce New Album – 'In Rainbows'

by Daniel Zugna - October 1 2007

Radiohead's seventh album will be called 'In Rainbows', and will be available for download on the band's official website from October 10.

Not long after an unofficial new album website was revealed as a hoax, the band's radiohead.com space was updated with release information about the new album.
The band are asking fans how much they'd like to pay for the file download, with the price field left blank alongside a disclaimer "it's up to you".
The album can also be purchased as a ?40 made-to order discbox, which according to the site "consists of the new album, in rainbows, on CD and on 2 x 12 inch heavyweight vinyl records. A second, enhanced CD contains more new songs, along with digital photographs and artwork. The discbox also includes artwork and lyric booklets. All are encased in a hardback book and slipcase."

The tracklisting for 'In Rainbows' is as follows:
15 Step
Bodysnatchers
Nude
Weird Fishes / Arpeggi
All I Need
Faust Arp
Reckoner
House Of Cards
Jigsaw Falling Into Place
Videotape

Thanks for the heads up. Radiohead are a unique band for sure and never heard of a band doing this. Now to figure out how much to pay for the download.

They had to go this route because the album has been done for a while but they are without a label. No one wanted to fund them so here we are. Maybe they're doing the right drugs to make them sound as good as the early 90s again?

Can't wait ... I saw them last year on a low key tour and the tracks were more guitar based.

i highly doubt they couldnt find a label... maybe no label would agree to their demands (which are cool imo)

i know they signed on to that capitol deal years ago and are psyched to not have to deal with those fuckers anymore. so id say the only reason they did not get a label is cause none would agree to the chose your payment option

Re: NEW RADIOHEAD!!! in 10 days!

^ ^ That's the same deal. If you're not signed to a label then you couldn't find a label.

Re: NEW RADIOHEAD!!! in 10 days!

beanz they probably had every label out there trying to release this... its not the same thing

[beanzncheez]

Re: NEW RADIOHEAD!!! in 10 days!

It is the same thing. If you disagree with a label, you still don't have a label. How many of you actually wear underwear?

Re: NEW RADIOHEAD!!! in 10 days!

ok, so has anyone heard this yet? won't say too much now, but there are moments of absolute genius on this album.

Re: NEW RADIOHEAD!!! in 10 days!

i downloaded it, but haven't really listened yet. i'm glad that i gave them $0 for those 160kbps mp3s...

Re: NEW RADIOHEAD!!! in 10 days!

real cd will likely be released in 2008. 160kbps mp3s of new radiohead is a hell of alot better than no radiohead at all...
