ptothedo Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) http://www.oknotok.co.uk/ BOXED EDITION SHIPPING FROM JULY Rescued from defunct formats, prised from dark cupboards and brought to light after two decades in cold storage… OK COMPUTER: the original twelve track album, three unreleased tracks and eight B-sides, all newly remastered from the original analogue tapes*. Inside a black box emblazoned with a dark image of a burned copy of OK COMPUTER are three heavyweight 180 gram black 12" vinyl records and a hardcover book containing more than 30 artworks, many of which have never been seen before except by us, and full lyrics to all the tracks except the ones that haven't really got any lyrics. Under this weighty tome are yet more surprises: a notebook containing 104 pages from Thom Yorke's library of scrawled notes of the time, a sketchbook containing 48 pages of Donwood and Tchock's 'preparatory work' and a C90 cassette mix tape compiled by us, taken from OK COMPUTER session archives and demo tapes. To avoid accusations of wilful obscurity, a 320k MP3, 16- or 24-bit WAV download of 23 tracks will be available to you on 23rd June and a download of the cassette will be inside the box. £100 / $120 / €130 VINYL A triple-sleeve gatefold holding three 180 gram black 12" vinyl records containing the original twelve track album, three unreleased tracks and eight B-sides, all newly remastered from the original analogue tapes. The sleeve includes a download card for a 320k MP3 or 16-bit WAV download of the 23 track album. Shipping from 23rd June. £23 / $28 / €30 Edited May 2, 2017 by ptothedo untiliwakeup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highfives Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Given how long the A Moon Shaped Pool Deluxe hung around, I'll probably wait a minute on this. But, I'll just say "fuck yeah!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyfranciosa Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Awesome - Lift! Man O War!! If they had included a full band version of Nude/Big Ideas from this era I might have died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

openupyourskull Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I have an original '97 pressing but this album is so near and dear to me that I gotta get that box set. But yeah... Lift, Big Boots AND I Promise. Hoooly shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamJNovak Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) Ok Computer is my all time favorite album. Having said that, I don't think I'm going to buy the boxset. I bought the boxset for AMSP and you can literally buy the same thing for $14.99 on Discogs. I get they're my favorite band, I get this is my favorite album, but I'm holding off buying it especially considering, I have all the B-sides except the three already mentioned.

natenomm Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Neat! I don't need the box, but if the LPs are better than the Capitol pressings I have I'll jump on it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek™ Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 What a glorious, expensive day to be a Radiohead fan who still doesn't own this album. twatay and Rip 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thievedrelic Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I'd imagine US distros will get their own variants. I can only see this being a massive release. They must know they could easily sell 30,000 of these 3xLPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must know they could easily sell 30,000 of these 3xLPs. You're probably not wrong. I'd opt for a translucent blue over an opaque blue, but I bet Boomkat will absolutely be cheaper than a potential Newbury press. ethereal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Newbury getting rights to an exclusive XL pressing for a Radiohead album. I could easily see this blue edition being exactly like the AMSP Indie white version, available in many places but still limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djghost1976 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Got the blue. If something better pops up, I can always cancel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why they wouldn't follow the AMSP release. What's more intriguing is thinking about what they'll do for Kid A/Amnesiac in a couple of years.

lethalenforcer Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 For anyone that ordered the blue from Boomkat, does your order receipt say (Cat no. XLLP868) or (Cat no. XLLP868X)? Hoping they didn't screw up the items for this... I ordered a blue but there's no X at the end of mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejc625 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Is the color the only difference in the Boomkat version? Hadn't had time to thoroughly go over all the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
