Radiohead - in Rainbows (Vinyl)
In Rainbows, as a title, implies a sense of comfort and delightfulness. Symbolically, rainbows are more likely to be associated with kittens and warm blankets than the grim and glum circumstances Radiohead is known for soundtracking. Theres a slight, if expected, twist at play. The band is more than familiar with the unpleasant moods associated with colors like red, green, and blue - all of which, of course, are colors within a rainbow - all of which are present, and even mentioned, during the album. On a couple levels, then, In Rainbows is not any less fitting as a Radiohead album title than quot;Myxomatosisquot; as a Radiohead song title. The one aspect of the album that becomes increasingly perceptible with each listen is how romantic it feels, albeit in the way that one might find the bioport scenes in David Cronenbergs to be extremely hot and somewhat unsettling. Surprisingly, some of the albums lyrics are even more personal/universal and straightforward than anything on The Eraser, the album made by singer Thom Yorke and Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich. The album is very song-oriented, with each track constantly moving forward and developing. Yet there are also abstract electronic layers and studio-as-instrument elements to prevent it from sounding like a regression. In Rainbows will be remembered as Radioheads most stimulating synthesis of accessible songs and abstract sounds, rather than the worlds first pick-your-price download.

This actually turned out to be a brand new, unopened copy of the cd, even though it was billed as used, in very good condition.

The CD is excellent, you wont be disappointed. However the case is terrible, I ripped it straight away whilst opening it, do be careful. Why a normal case cannot be used is beyond me. The same happened with the Steven Wilson Hand, Cannot, Erase CD. Ripped straight away whilst trying to get the booklet out. Very annoying as I look after my stuff. I did actually write for a replacement case but heard nothing. A great CD though.(In Rainbows) One missing star for that reason!

This is one of the best Radiohead albums so far, and one of the best albums I've heard from the 2000s. It has everything you love about Radiohead all wrapped into 10 songs; it's daring and catchy; minimalistic, yet complex. I also like it because there's more emotion on this compared to some Radiohead albums. If you don't own this album, buy it! It, especially, sounds great on vinyl. Gohastings.com has it for a very good price (under $15 for the LP, I think).

Do not use the stickers. Unless you have perfect coordination skill or something. Don't just use any jewel case either, get the thicker one that will fit the lyrics booklet. Otherwise, it's a pretty standard disk. Best Radiohead album period, anyone who disagree is wrong.
This is an amazing product. It came quickly and it was packaged well. Everything was in great condition and the record had no audible pops. The only thing which was a bit of a disappointment was that this record is (as far as I can tell) an American pressing with only English on the cover. As the thumbnail suggests I assumed that this was a Japanese pressing with Katakana characters on the cover. But overall this is a great product which I highly recommend.
I love most of Radiohead's music, but In Rainbows is their best by a country mile and genuinely believe it's the most iconic album of the last 30-40 years. It's a must buy and after listening to it properly a few times you'll understand. There's nothing else like it (other than Radiohead's more recent King of Limbs which is also worth a listen). I recommend listening through a very good set of headphones or speakers to be able to appreciate the intense orchestral moments in some of the tracks. Every single track is fantastic, with 'Reckoner' as the best.
Not been long time Radioheader and this is the album that hooked me in... So getting it on vinyl was essential. great intertwined melodies and bass hooks. If you haven't been "into" Radiohead before, maybe start with this one.
The album was terribly warped. Have to return. Album itself is one of Radiohead’s most beautiful
This is in such perfect condition. Like, sure theres some wear and tear around the outside but the disc runs smoothly, there are STICKERs! Its perfect! My friend introduced me to Radiohead and this is his favorite album so what better way to say thank you for being there than to surprise him with this album playing in his own car! I am sooo happy and so satisfied. I can't even begin to describe how awesome of a purchase this was. I will definitely buy from you again. Thank you so much!
Great cd. Just recently got into Radiohead. This is an outstanding collection of cuts. Condition of cd was also outstanding
