Vinyl (LP) Radiohead – In Rainbows

Experience one of the most significant musical milestones of the 21st century with Radiohead’s In Rainbows. Originally released in 2007 as a groundbreaking pay-what-you-want download, this 2023 vinyl reissue from XL Recordings brings the band’s seventh studio masterpiece back to the turntable. Following their departure from EMI, Radiohead collaborated with longtime producer Nigel Godrich to create an album that Rolling Stone describes as having "no wasted moments" and "no weak tracks."

Moving away from the political undertones of their previous work, In Rainbows explores more personal, human themes through a "stimulating synthesis" of accessible pop melodies and abstract, otherworldly sounds. Critics have hailed it as the band's "gentlest and prettiest" set, utilizing a full emotional spectrum to conjure breathtaking beauty.
