Radiohead leaks...sort of


In an ingenius way to sample their new album, Radiohead puts up a youtube video where they play bits and pieces of their new songs.

According to NME.com, the band has not released anything new since 2003's Hail to the Thief. I'm trying to play this youtube post and damn, I can't make ends of anything. Instead of playing a streaming 30-second sample, the band decides to take clips from here and there within the song. You really can't get anything much out of this leak except for the faint sounds of Thom Yorke's voice and some techno stuff.

It is up on youtube under the description
"...bits of tape which have been chopped out of the mixes when they were edited..."

I think that means that what we're listening to is stuff not even on the album. Either way, I'm confused and thrilled to actually hear the entire thing.

Geez.
