MAKIN' LEMONADE WITH RADIOHEAD

Someone hacked Radiohead's no longer OK computer and tried to hold unreleased demos dating back to, er, OK Computer for ransom. Radiohead responded by putting them online for eighteen days, beginning today. Here's a link to the description of what happened and to their Bandcamp page where you can stream them or download all for an $18 donation to Extinction Rebellion, which Wikipedia describes as "a socio-political movement which uses nonviolent resistance to protest against climate breakdown, biodiversity loss, and the risk of human extinction and ecological collapse." Eighteen bucks might seem like a lot, but it's over a gigabyte of music. Fiends only, perhaps, but if I was a Radiohead-head, I'd be on this like stink on pigs. Hell, I don't care if they sound like Mantovani, I like the way they handled the situation.

NEW RADIOHEAD, KING OF LIMBS

When it comes to Radiohead, I'll admit to having a sip of the Kool-aid, but not a whole cup. So you'll understand my bewilderment when it comes to the fuss over every burp and fart produced by the Radiohead camp. Nonetheless, for you fussers, here's some stuff from their new album, King Of Limbs, which was released digitally a few days ago. Dreary music fans are rejoicing. As you can imagine, it's all over the music blogs, so it's pretty easy to find. I just thought I'd play consolidator. First the video for "Lotus Flower", for which ol' Thom Yorke has devised a deadhead-mime hybrid dance.

Here's the music. I've only found six of the eight songs, but I'll add more links as I find them. In the meantime, you can listen to the whole thing streaming.:
