Q. what has two thumbs and would be a total loser if radiohead's in rainbows doesn't get reviewed at some point?
A. this guy.

so i'm sure you know about radiohead; they're huge.  i'm sure you heard that they originally released their seventh album, in rainbows on the internet allowing fans to pay what they wanted; they're awesome.  but unlike most huge, awesome bands, radiohead actually has talent.  a lot of talent.  in my opinion, they are one of the best, most experimental bands in the world.

for those of you only familiar with eighteen year old radiohead from their early hits "fake plastic trees" and "creep", they are best described using the following adjectives: austere, atmospherically theatric, angst ridden, detached, epic, paranoid... not good characteristics for an employee.  great characteristics for a band.

as we speak, they're gearing up for a huge american/european tour.  confirmed cities include: tampa, atlanta, charlotte, houston, doublin paris, berlin, etc. unscheduled cities include: boston, cleveland, chicago, new york among others.  click here for the others.  fyi,  carpooling to the show gets you special free parking.

radiohead was kind enough to share with us videos off of in rainbows.  just click any of the boxes below.  don't forget, the album cover image on the upper right of the screen links to additional sample songs, the radiohead image on the lower right links to the website.

as always, please buy this album from your local independent music store and not from retailers like wal-mart (soulless, globally-homogenizing, community-killers) or i-tunes (albums should be listened to as an entire composition with album cover and liner notes in hand).

everybody knows radiohead rocks.

if you agree, please spread the word (about the band and this site).
