Radiohead Announces New Album in the Works


In a recent interview with the BBC, Radiohead have announced that the follow up album to their 2007’s “In Rainbows” is in the early stages of recording. Bassist Colin Greenwood revealed of their initial recordings: “It was very noisy and chaotic and really fun…It’s at the stage where we’ve got the big Lego box out and we’ve tipped it out on the floor and we’re just looking at all the bits and thinking what’s next?” Im super excited.

Radiohead "In Rainbows"

Ok, as most of you all know, I have been hyping this album for a hot moment. I really cant even begin to explain how great this is. It is, in my opinion, one of the greatest milestones in the history of human sound! Last night I had a serious headache and couldn't sleep. After listening to this album for a good minute or so I was out like a rock, and in about an hour I felt so much better. This album made me feel better. In late 2007 Radiohead released In Rainbows as a digital download that customers could order for whatever price they saw fit [who does that??!]. Upon its retail release, In Rainbows entered the UK Album Chart and the U.S. Billboard 200 at number one; it went on to sell three million copies worldwide in both digital and physical formats. The album earned widespread critical acclaim, and was ranked as one of the best albums of 2007 by several publications. In 2009, the record won two Grammy Awards for Best Alternative Music Album and Best Special Limited Edition Package. This is genius at its purest level; a source of such great inspiration.

Radiohead: You May Not Understand Their Freshness, But You Must Respect It!

The band is composed of Thom Yorke (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano, beats), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar, keyboard, other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitar, backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass guitar) and Phil Selway (drums, percussion).


The Grammys 2009: The Wrapup


Well, well, well! look who walked away from last night's ceremony with the first award of the night! Congratulations to J-Hud for winning best R&B album of the year; she deserved it. And who could forget that heart-felt speech and performance? She killed it! Plain and simple. That had to be one of my favorite performances last night. I cant say that it takes the cake, because Radiohead was that shit also. I'm still trying to figure out how they can be so great. I thought their performance of "15 Steps" was just genius. Also, I had to hold my breath the whole time M.I.A. was on stage. I so don't know how she made it through; her baby was due to be born last night.


When it comes to awards, i must say that Lil Wayne was robbed for "Album of the Year". Who the hell is Plant & Krauss???? And how did they win? OK, I already know how they won, but Lil Wayne had the biggest selling album of 2008. If they were counting units instead of votes he would have won. They got 1.2 million to Wayne's 3 million. Robbed! Other than that, Katie Perry entered the stage in a giant bananna! I do hate the fact that the show was 3.5 hours long. I was so ready to go to sleep. And whats up with Boyz 2 Men doing back up for Justin Timberlake [who filled in for the missing Chris Brown]? If anything, they should have been singing up front with Al Green while Justin took the back. Overall it was a good show. Kudos to Coldplay for the Srgt Pepper outfits.
