Last night I stayed up late listening to Radiohead. I have several thoughts on their different albums; each one reminds me of certain, very different styles, but there’s a definite tendency that evokes—I wouldn’t know whether to call it feelings of sadness, exactly, but rather a kind of passive ominousness... It’s strange. The tones and scales they use...
eerie maybe?
I’m definitely sticking with
OK Computer, without a doubt.
That said, I went to the record store I mentioned to you. They had The Smiths and countless other bands that many people would probably be dying to find, but they didn’t have anything by Radiohead—not even on vinyl.
Still, on Radiohead’s Bandcamp, I saw that they sell these editions, which I assume are “extended” editions or something along those lines for each album. Of course, you can get the “standard” version digitally, but these are the ones that come with a physical copy.
For
OK Computer, for example, it would be this one:
23 track album
radiohead.bandcamp.com
I’d like to have that CD, and all things considered, it’s pretty cheap, even with shipping and everything. Still, I’d like to have different versions of different albums—not necessarily the ones you can find online, but rather some editions from different countries and things like that.
For example, they sell the
My Iron Lung EP on CD at a store in the capital of my country. I had it at one point, and it included the acoustic version of “Creep,” but in other regions, that track isn’t included.
