Digging
Besides the song invisiblesparks posted yesterday, my interest in Radiohead peaked again. Don't gasp, but I lost interest after "Karma Police" and I don't even own that album. Once I bought one of their more experimental CDs on a whim and wanted to snap it in two, specifically after hearing a song recorded played back in reverse and rerecorded (every die hard fan know the one I speak of). I don't really consider it experimental, I considered it filling time. Anyways, I'm somewhat happy with this collection of tracks. I can see where their experimental period has paid off. I can also understand a die hard Radiohead fan's love for them. I have liked U2, all of their CDs and their 'experimental' electronic phase (they were experimenting where others have conquered and ran off to greener pastures).
So, yes, I paid $8 for this CD and I'm not ashamed of it. Had I taken the chance to download it when it was free -- I might not have then. Just because somethings free doesn't mean I have to have it. Anyways. Consider this my reasoning to check it out and pay for it or avoid it if 'you're not into that kind of thing'. Either way, it's cool.
