Radiohead - In Rainbows - In Stores 01.01.08

[efoster69]

i just bought this and it came with the stickers but no clear case wtf am i suppose to do with this now

[etejuanete3]

I can't fuckin' wait for THE KING OF LIMBS!!!!!!

[minamu8]

Radiohead, please make your next album have the same design/package as In Rainbows!

[minamu8]

It's really cool how they had two designs for that. One awesome unique package, and then for people that want it in a jewel case, they made a set for you to have it in a case. So basically, in the end, it comes with two packages! Awesome!

[reCupcake]

i fucked up the sticker too! then i tried to peel it off to reposition it like in this video, but..........

..."FUCK! IT RIPPED!"

:'(

[liam710]

why the fuck is spandau ballet - gold in the related items.

[andeve3]

Best packaging Ever!

And the album is earsex...

[rockstarboy06]

i think i just orgasmed haha

[Sparkonetwo]

I tried to do the "make your own CD" thing and I totally fucked it up. And the stickers won't come off so now I'm screwed!

[cokursh]

ahhhhhahahahahahahahahaha ! radiohead humor....

[KatMoretti]

This is better than a Kinder egg.

[IchigoHuecoMundo]

Yeaah!!!

Finally I got it it s beautiful

[blindedbymonkeys]

i put it on my penis

[reCupcake]

ROFL!

[TheTexanAtheist]

I put my sticker on my ps3 =} it looks so sexy hehe

[JillyGrant]

I put my sticker on the CD cover. :D

[HM3]

I love this song!!!

[radeon110]

i put one on the bottom of my skateboard. =]!!

[catwomanjean]

i stuck the stickies on a cd box and now it's broken.... don't want to mess with the stickies so the cd floats around. :( i still love radiohead though :)

[iamthegreatest1234]

i thought the jewel case stickers were a great idea, but one thing came a little short

the booklet that came with the cd was too thick and couldn't fit into any of my jewel cases. now i have the cardboard case with a booklet but no cd and a jewel case with a cd but no booklet.

and also, the stickers are a little too sticky and can't be removed to be repositioned, so my jewel case looks stupid.

[nicemutant]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!

That bit about your jewel case looking stupid cracked me up man...

You should have perfected it in your mind first.

I myself have always longed for stickier jewel stickers. They always fall off in time. ;)

[iamthegreatest1234]

haha ok then. i'll be sure to do that next time.

[whufc14]

they are suggesting you be creative, and plus it meant they didnt have to mass produce plastic, adding to climate change which they strongly beilive in, its about making you own choices.

[geniusgza7]

i got the cd lik this...out of interest wat eare people doing with the stickers in it??..i havent done anytin wit dem yet lol

[saborranchero]

me neither because what if I break the cd box and then the sticker gets all messed up and stuff like in the video... :S

[KaysanHermit]

i used the stickers, and got an old CD case and stuck them all on. its kind of easy to take em off if you get it wrong

[CommentingApple]

I just keep the cd in the paper thingy and put the stickers on my folders n stuff dont feel like makin the cd ya kno.

[geniusgza7]

yea same, am not gonna make a cd of dem, will jus stick dem sumwer, mabye on the side of speakers!

[DanBL0N00]

i put them on my guitar case

[TyphoidBryan]

I'm a collector as well, so I haven't done anything with them. I'd feel like my album would be incomplete if I used them. :)

Oh well, at least I can just buy another copy and be creative with the materials as I choose.

I may take the sticker intended for the front and cut it in the shape of that little big-toothed bear character that they've shown in prior liner notes and such. ...then stick it on the CD case that way.

[MuNkYBizNess]

Best tune on the album for me, just transports you away

[AndTheTurtle]

I just bought the album. The musics AND the album are are AMAZING.

[DrizzleLightBlue]

great ad!

[isafuckinbel]

what all does it come with? The cd, Record, bonus disc and is that it?

i keep hearing these new songs that radiohead is singing but there arnt on either of the cds, and i don't have the cd.

=/

[lindy12501250]

if your buying the cd from the store thats all ur getting the ten songs of there new album but there is a pack on there website u can buy which include the vinyl version of this cd and a bonus cd which is 8( pretty sure) new songs and also a art book and some other stuff

[rusjones]

hehe, nice point when he didn't get the sticker right on it :D

[janesmith1990]

mine didn't come with a hard plastic cover to put the stickers on. is it supposed to?

[galerandyaddict]

no. you can buy one if you want to keep the cd in it. its all about being creative

[danielhatchbgs]

what song is this

[pedrowasabi]

'15 Step', first song from 'In Rainbows', the newest Radiohead's album.

[moomoocowsly]

seriously how fucking stupid do you have to be to ask this

[danielhatchbgs]

#### you, i just saw the tv ad for the first time about 2 mins before i posted this comment so how should i have known

[moomoocowsly]

it's an ad for their new album. did you really think they'd use someone elses song to advertise their own album?

[danielhatchbgs]

was i asking who's song it was?

[jayh272416]

Nope. You have a valid point there.

[isafuckinbel]

hahahaha

[queersteerbeers]

ok then

[queersteerbeers]

no one gave you an answer why are you saying thanks

[Joberooni]

uh... thanks in advance?!

[Joberooni]

i got my cd, but dont wanna use the stickers. can we really unpeel it again, and get it to stick again, like this video says? thanks!

[gjk0005]

I saw this spot on conan obrien the other night!

[gjk0005]

man, why did i pay for the mp3s.. now I want the freakin CD..

damn my loyalty!

[missaigletinger]

one of my stickers tore when i was peeling it off the backing, which was kinda lame. other than that, i liked it.

[everlasting74]

already bought album, now i understand what to do with these stickers :)

[titFck69]

Completely original.

[xxXghislainXxx]

Radiohead is the best band of this universe!

(there is a universe in which my band is the best band of that universe =)

[queersteerbeers]

i like them they are always making people happy with their records and they are also creative they are truly gonna be in the rock and roll hall of fame they earned it

[Unoriginable]

Worth the buy even if you downloaded it in Oct! I have in my hands and it's rad.

[YouWish8]

[dmoney450]

[xlovexactuallyx]

15 step

[AsaiMoonsault]

It's 15 Step, the first track on the album, and a great way to kick off a great album!

[adamania]

It's actually "15 Steps". Kbye.

[Slothuny]

It's actually "15 Step". Epic fail.

[zromo]

PWNED!!!!!!!!

[bobtheblob916]

no...it is 15 Step, he just sings "15 steps" in the lyrics

[getinnocuous]

clever

[RadioBreizh]

L'album de 2008. :o)

[Eatchex89]

nice i didn't pay for the download, but I picked this cd up in hottopic for $10! Can't wait to create my very own jewel case!

[mynciee]

I just got it without even hearing any of the songs. Its INCREDIBLE! definitely one of Radiohead's best :)

[Dem0nJohn]

Great album.

Everyone buy it!

[Princesspi]

this commercial is cool :D

[neowolf2012]

This album is truly epic. Beautiful and haunting. An expose of the human soul in these times I think.

[Calcifer112]

Came out here on the 28th :), i got lucky

[betty666999]

whats the name of this song??

[drummerdickens]

15 step

[a0120415]

in stores december 31 in taiwan!!!

[dudumoi]

dudes the releas here in canada was the janary first but i got it the 26th haha (legaly)

[jwillchad]

does anyone know if this'll be the only way to buy the album? wont it come in a normal cd case?

[omgasdfLOLzk]

The album is available in vinyl, but the CD version comes in a special 'do it yourself' packaging, so you can recycle an old jewel case you're not using (as demonstrated in the video).

[rinsmaster]

Nice, gotto buy it too :D

[jesserai]

It's easy to make the argument that rh is popular music. their music has the power to slap me in the face and heal me in the same beat... it appeals to something inside me, primal, that doesn't worry about critiquing or nit picking.

[jesserai]

they've proven themselves over and over and for that reason when i get a new song or album from them I listen to it as if I were listening to a friend or elders' voice. worrying about what kind of label to put on them seems like a distraction from their message and unfair to these true artists.

[BooBooLane]

j-al: Radiohead's noise is popular because it's what the Corporates want you to make popular. Even the college stations have fallen for this junk.

Top-40 has been making fools of the masses for 50+ years.

[RolandCasey]

I have not receive my DISCBOX yet... I'm from Hong Kong(Asia). What can I do? Email said 5-18 days rest of world. Help I'm so sad on Xmas......

[fakechic]

well, if u emailed them, at least they know u are waiting, but i think u will just have to wait a little longer, cause i am sure u will get it...u will, don't be sad on xmas

[wickerpony]

i live in ireland,right next to england and it took 20 days to get to me! im next door!!!

xmas is a busy time friend!

be patient(sp...all)

[RolandCasey]

thank you guys i finally got it yesterday, it's great! thank you all of u & happy holiday to any radiohead fans!

[fakechic]

omg, people, radiohead can't even be labeled...Rrambler...i mean, i get what u mean, but this is not even CLOSE to what people today refer to as "pop", i mean, come on, radiohead and britney spears...i think not.

[Mearann]

fakechic, i agree with you to an extent. Radiohead is a genre in itself. and i certainly wouldn't call most of their material "pop", but to be fair, In Rainbows in places sounds a lot like 70-80 pop...Reckoner for example. and then also, The Beatles are considered a pop band as well, right? "pop" is just an abbreviation for "popular". anything more or less accessible can be categorized as "pop".

[Mearann]

and also, then of course there are statements like this:

"We write pop songs. As time has gone on, we've gotten more into pushing our material as far as it can go. But there was no intention of it being 'art.' It's a reflection of all the disparate things we were listening to when we recorded it." (Thom Yorke)

[fakechic]

but of course, their "pop" obviously isn't what today's cultures views it's as...also.

[fakebastard]

want

[jesserai]

I got my disc box the other day, any of you notice the seemingly hand carved words on the inside of the vinyls? they were all words from reckoner on mine.

[jesserai]

one vinyl says "RIPPLES" and on the other side it says "ON A"

the other record says "BLANK" and on the other side "SHORE" ... they are located on the smooth section between the center sticker and the actual music bit of the record... there are also odd letters and numbers carved on the same bit i think its an identification thing.

[thewunderkid]

I find the hands to be very appealing, Something cool about the elegant and expressive fingers.

[FernandoDANTE]

Fucking awesome.

[MitchS4350]

What are you talking about, it's not even pop

[Rrambler]

what is not pop. radiohead? sure is pop.

thom yorke himself referred to radiohead as a pop band in numerous interviews as early as 1992 and as recent as 2006.

[Rrambler]

and as for In Rainbows in particular, thom posted this quote by Robert Wyatt on the day of the album's release:

"I love pop music to death..... Most great composers rely on folk music. I rely on pop music.

I'm not saying I'm a great composer or that pop music is folk music. There's a whole endless thing going on out there. (to be continued)

[Rrambler]

(continued)

You make your little pond but if your pond isn't connected to the river, which isn't connected to an ocean,

it's just going to dry up. It's just a little piss pool. I've lived too long to be happy in a pond."

so there you go.

and even without that, it's pretty darn obvious that In Rainbows is very heavily influenced by pop music.

[carey85]

I got the discbox yesterday and it's very well done. I'll buy the CD at the first of the year because I'm a completist. The idea of the album stickers is cool, but Beck and god knows who else has done it already. After seeing the discbox and its construction, I'd have thought Radiohead would've avoided unnecessary plastic like the plague, but guess not...

[zappedchicken]

happy new year!

[simon1975]

I agree best way to start the new year!

[viewtifulmikey]

This video is so racist.

[fakechic]

what the FUCK man, i am a minority and this is not fucking racist u douchebag

[ehfuckit]

very

[rhpumpkin]

I love this video!

There's something about it that makes me smile like an idiot by the end.

- Maybe it's the group of hands clapping that makes it so joyful, and suitable to the song

- Or maybe it's because I'm giddy that I'll be getting my discbox soon

Either way... =D

[radioheadyorke]

greaaaaaat im still waiting for my discboxx

[gorillazfan2006]

god radiohead are so goddamn lazy

[keytype]

a dildo

[unplugged123]

what is that round disc shaped thingy they were putting in that plastic case?

[zappedchicken]

the disc.

[zdkrdh]

lol

[pbjtoast]

i like to play basketball

[LfunkeyA]

and i thought radiohead weren't on the uber-commercial side. this is the most cheaply commercial thing i've seen lately. i hope this video was made with the irony in mind.

[PS3Fan14]

nice sticker eh

[chicluba]

or you could just download it from their website for free or by making a donation... or did they stop doing that?

I was actually a little dissapointed in this albumn >.> they don't sound like radio head anymore... they kind of got all poppy... idk maybe if I listen to it enough it will grow on me. Some times it takes a little while to absorb something new.

[Andyrooten]

I disagree. For me this is my favorite Radiohead album. I thought they did a great job of bringing together all the sounds from their earlier albums. I haven't been able to stop listening to it.

[calvis84]

radiohead never sound like radiohead, and that's a good thing. I mean, they have that unique style that defines them as a band, but, every radiohead album has its own sound, its own style. that makes radiohead one of the greatest bands of all times, they don't get stuck, they never play it safe. they're always growing :D

[calvis84]

that comment supposed to be a response to chicluba. I got to get some sleep hehe

[chicluba]

I guess I just always thought of them differently to me they always had a specific sort of Haunting sound, and the his vocals were just amazing for that...

idk, everyone is different and they see things in different ways...

[darklordrandy]

I would really lov to see a build an album workshop at some point.

[kourada]

great cd.I love all i need and house of cards

[Sparky6string]

Agreed, and Nude is quite good.

[hitsuRH]

Such a simple idea, yet so powerful.

Great Idea, Radiohead.

[keytype]

How cool is this. I'm going to leave the text off the front so I have a cool cover

[chocojian]

what the fuck is this shit?

[bluepurplelizard]

Shut up if you don't know what this video is about

[calvis84]

wooow too much pressure that do-it-yourself thing... i'm gessing i will buy the cd a couple of times until i do it right xDD

even though, i think it's great. you're always are a step fordward. You`re always changing in a positive way. You challenge people to change, to break the structures. That's what art is all about. You're real artists!!! and that's not a common thing theese days!!!

[radiocoocoo]

well i think i can do that, but it looks like i will need adult supervision.

[brayshizzle]

beck did it and it was fucking awesome!!!!!!!

[Trunks378]

This is awful advertising, you're not seriously putting this on tv, are you?

[Stundek]

Shut It.

[PirateThom]

My God, just put it in a digipack! That seems a terrible lot of work to go through to make a CD presentable... unless Thom Yorke is going to come around to my house and do it for me.

[eggs07]

Stickers? Hmm, not what I expected. It still seems a little weird, too, that with all the amazing artwork presented on the Discbox bonus disc, they went with the cover that they did.

Not that it makes the album any less great, though! It's about the music after all.

[justradiohead2]

wonder if all the labels r stuck on by hand?

[theantinator]

STICKERS!! ^_^

[Stundek]

Ladies and gentlemen,

Radiohead demonstrate that they're clearly ahead of the game.

Yet again.

[06371671]

By partnering with a label who have a mediocre marketing department? Huh.

[bluepurplelizard]

Yeah, of course. You can see it with their money gains, and with their awesome new cd. All who like Radiohead, ENJOY... the rest... enjoy listening more comercial stuff

[Stundek]

No. By NOT partnering with Parlophone/EMI - a label who CLEARLY don't know how to market their artists - hence the massive exodus since it was taken over - Paul McCartney, Radiohead, et al..... - and where are Radiohead now? Still one of the most important, most vital bands around, and I'm sure they're not flatting to survive.  And EMI are virtually in the shitter.

Really thought that comment through, eh?

[06371671]

I'm sorry if I personally offended you but you can't deny this ad, the whole make your own cd idea and the rest of the In Rainbows CD marketing was atrocious. The 'mass exodus' from EMI is about far more than marketing, and I'm glad Radiohead have left them even if they no longer have the powerful marketing muscle of a major label.

Do I really need to state what a rabid Radiohead fan, not to have snarky idiots trying to stand up for their temporary label?

[lilbruddaproductions]

Apparently you don't like getting creative with the 'make your own CD'

ha, I hope they do this with vinyl, because that's how I'm getting this.

[Julyenka]

wow you are awesome

i want it now!!

[streetspirit73]

Great!

[keanesky]

Can't wait :D

[ibruckelmann]

hahahaha xD marvelous

[andyboy02]

[2DM]

Seriously, the best way to start the year.

[FilmArtMusic]

So Great!

[arnoct]
