I'm listening to it now, and diggin it. Can't say the same about first listen of the last album 'Hail to the Thief.' This has more of a Kid-A vibe, which is the album that got me into Radiohead in the first place (good rec Greg.)
There's not even an official cover for it which has led to people creating their own. There's quite a collection of well done / creative / funny covers here.
Delli found this on a message board. Haven't tried it yet, but it's pretty interesting:
Preceding the release of IN Rainbows, Radiohead started releasing "info" on the new album simply by putting a bunch of what appeared to be Binary numbers up on their website (101010). After the release of the album, a bunch of bigger Radiohead geeks than me figured out what they think it all means. The album was released on 10-10-2007, 10yrs after OK computer. And furthermore, something they figured out between the album name In Rainbows (rainbows=alternating colors), the alternating 1s and 0s, the song "Jigsaw Falling into Place," as well as hints on the OK Comptuter album cover itself, was that In Rainbows is the "second half" of OK Computer. The songs are supposed to alternate, and they fit together/fade together perfectly. I even noticed the beats to "15 Step" and "Paranoid Android" are extremely similar. Anyways, thought I'd share, cuz it's kinda sweet.Enjoy a couple of my favorite tracks, or go download it for yourself.1. Airbag (OKComputer)
