damianzamora Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 This is from W.A.S.T.E. "For the next few weeks, The King Of Limbs will be exclusively available from our website, but from March 28th it will be on general release on CD, 12" vinyl and digital download in all good record stores."

kidamnesiac Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Can't wait for Saturday. Literally itching to hear this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capsized Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 "Thank you for you order" Regarding how limited the special ed will be. I think the limitation goes as far as they receive preorders. But maybe they have a upper limit, who knows. It just strikes me as funny how the release dates for the regular edition and the special edition differ. Regular: March, 28th Special: May, 9th My guess is the the regular ed is going to the press now and for the special ed they take preorders for a month and produce as many as was ordered. Also yay, for not having a CD only special edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theinkd Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 probably end up getting the regular 12" as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 probably end up getting the regular 12" as wellMe too. I have the In Rainbows 12" in addition to the discbox. That's nothing to how many copies of Kid A I have, though. US CD version, Deluxe storybook version, UK version with the secret booklet under the disc tray, original 2X10" vinyl, and the Capitol repress vinyl. Haha.

kidamnesiac Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 The US CD I purchased on release day oddly didn't have the under-tray booklet. It was only later on eBay that I procured the secret booklet version, and mine just happens to be a UK pressing. I wasn't by any means implying that only UK versions of the CD had the secret booklet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafmx Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 i caved on this. i just want to see how it's going to look and i haven't bought a Radiohead album since Kid A. a flipper's dream! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evvandflow Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 yea i caved too, rather get it now than worry bout it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llamason56 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 And that price includes shipping from UK? I'm not complaining. I think they must have a distribution center in the US now. This is the first thing I've ever ordered from them with a price in USD. It's all coming from the UK. After you order it says it'll take up to 25 days to be delivered to overseas countries. And that's after 3-4 days to be delivered to them from the plant. We probably won't have these in hand until June. Hopefully sooner but who knows for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my In Rainbows discbox a week or so after they started showing up on doorsteps in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evvandflow Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 they could ship early who knows, this isnt MTS/AFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casey Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Might pick this up, hope its better than In Rainbows I'm hoping the dark artwork is indicative of a Hail to the Thief type album. Also, can someone please explain what constitutes a "newspaper album"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidamnesiac Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I'm hoping the dark artwork is indicative of a Hail to the Thief type album. Also, can someone please explain what constitutes a "newspaper album"? No one knows for sure as this is the first *maybe* of its kind. Speculation over on the Atease (Radiohead) boards is that the "newspaper" version could be a subscription of sorts, where exclusive content is released month to month for the duration of 2011. Others lean toward the possibility of the artwork being a newspaper-like format. But, then who really knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evvandflow Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 im with the latter of the two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capsized Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 probably more newspaper-like. why would there else be 625 pieces of artwork? i guess it a do it yourself newspaper, combine your own headlines with fictional news. something like that.

gmoney Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 They are either doing a show of some sorts, or playing some of their album, or giving it away tomorrow at Hachiko Square in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. My guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weshallallbe Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Congrats to Radiohead and the Mountain Goats...who have taken a decent chunk of the money I made from my moving out sale. I did NOT expect this to be a week where I bought a single record. Getting really excited to hear this, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troymess Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Well, I'm off the fence...went ahead and purchased the Newspaper Album with WAV for $53. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
