New album leaked

Just over two months before its release,
Radiohead's sixth studio album, Hail to
the Thief, has found its way on to the
internet.

We're not sure how it was leaked or if
it's even the mastered copy. Please don't
ask us where you can download it. Head on
over to the official Radiohead messageboard
and you'll find how to get a hold of them.

How will this affect the release date?
We're not sure. EMI may decide to release
the album earlier than planned. We'll see...


... if anyone's interested in it, contact me through msn (super_girl_001@hotmail.com) or AIM (ANTISOSHELL001) and I can send it to you!

my stupid biopsych professor who thinks he's the coolest guy in the world has it and he played a song from it and put on the ppt. screen, "yes, this is the worst title for an album, ever," NO, I WILL NOT BURN IT FOR YOU.

:roll:

he thinks he's so damn cool.

I'm not gunna do what I did with Gravity.

I'm waiting till it comes out before I download ANYTHING. I did the same thing with Cave In's new album and I'm so much happier having waited.

The only bad thing I can think of about it being unmastered is if any radio stations play the mp3's, people might think it's not as good an album as it actually is. To get a taste of what the album is like, the unmastered recordings are great.

if I'd waited until Gravity was released, I'd have hated it, rather than simply disappointed, I think.

Oh man, I don't know what I should do with this. Should I be a whore and listen to it before it comes out or should I wait until its release? I decided that is what I am going to do with the new Alkaline Trio cd (don't worry people, as soon as I get it, I promise I will send it to you) so I might as well hold out for Radiohead, right?

Download it. These aren't the final versions, I've heard that a couple of the songs have been cut down a bit from these for the actual album. So it's an interesting recording to have, and once the final versions are leaked it will become harder to get the unmastered versions.

The new album sucks beyond believe. I hate it.

I think EMI is trying to stop the circulation now. My friend who was hosting it on his ftp listed on oth.net got an email from our university isp telling him to stop sharing these files, specifically the new Radiohead album. So I'm guessing there are people on EMI trying to stop this, or maybe it's just my stupid university.

i dont know about EMI, but according to greenplastic.com, the band is fine with the cd being leaked...as long as they're fine, im fine :mrgreen: besides, its not like i wont buy the album.


the album is definetly more along the lines of kid a and amnesiac...gorgeous :drool: although it does take some time to digest
