This Saturday, the highly prolific [tag]Radiohead[/tag] frontman, Thom Yorke attended “The Jonathan Ross Show,” on BBC 2 radio, where among other things, he acoustically performed two songs: the mellow “Reckoner,” from In Rainbows and “Everything In Its Right Place,” from Kid A. After the short performance, Thom was interviewed, revealing among other ramblings, that people paid, in average, about £4 UK or 8 US $ for a In Rainbows digital copy. Talks also included discussions…
Things took an unexpected turn last night, when [tag]Radiohead[/tag] was forced to switch venues, due to large amount of people attending the gig. Big surprise there. Thus, the band switched from the initial Rough Trade East, to 93 Feet East (that’s the actual name), catching everybody, especially the club manager, by surprise. The show itself, was, according to attendants, “nothing short of magic.” Today, the whole gig was posted in one big session, by a…
I sense a disturbance in the force ! [tag]Radiohead[/tag] must be up to something … again and their not being very discrete, although as always surprising. If you’ve had loads of fun with the Brits previous webcasts, thumbs down and scotch_mist, then you’ll be thrilled to know that the band have announced, as always though their deadairspace, a brand new live webcast on radiohead.tv, tonight! The cast will air sometime around 8-ish, London time, from…
After releasing a set of European tour dates, now [tag]Radiohead[/tag] have sorta/kinda announced some North American locations, but no venues, no dates, just 22 mapped US and Canadian cities. At least you know where to expect them. Meanwhile In Rainbows sits well on the #1 of the Billboard 200, with 122,00 units sold in it’s second week, after a more weak first week (timing didn’t help). Radiohead is set to perform the North American tour,…

A big happy new year, for all you faithful readers, is in order for this first post of 2008; without your constant support we probably couldn’t have found the motivation to go on with our work. Anyway after a few days of hard drinkin’ well deserved rest, we’re back on the saddle and it seems like the band we’ve blogged the most in the past year is still here to stay. Yeah folks [tag]Radiohead[/tag] recently…
A while back [tag]Radiohead[/tag] announced, on their blog, that further copies of In Rainbows box set will not be produced (guess they’ll get pretty valuable in the future) and that the free download, of the digital In Rainbows, will stop as well, starting from 10 December 2008. Despite the fact they’ve put a bit of a cork on it, the band has decided to gracious with even more tour dates, two to be precise, as…
This is another poor week, in terms of new releases, with only, as usual for this time of year, rap or R&B albums that are worth mentioning. This includes new records from the likes of Bow Wow, The-Dream, Beanie Sigel and reporedly also Nelly, that pushed his latest album’s release date a while back to December 10, but now he’s changed it again to a yet to be announced date. Oh and don’t forget this…
Mystery seems to be a [tag]Radiohead[/tag] trademark, from cryptic runes (those were fun though), to a sporadic out of the blue new album, to a basement gig footage and most recently details have surfaced of the band’s much anticipated 2008 tour. The dates for the summer European tour were announced yesterday and included some vague schedueling for Manchester, Dublin or Glasgow; at the time I didn’t know if this was intentionally put to confuse or…
Happy day boys and girls! At last some facts and info about [tag]Weezer[/tag]’s upcoming sixth studio effort, have been revealed. That means that their forthcoming LP, suggestively titled Album Six (not very creative guys… ) has a release date, scheduled for April 22, 2008. “Weezer fans truly have something to look forward to,” gushed Weezer bassist Scott Shriner about the new Weezer album on the Weezer website. “The entire band has accomplished some of its…
