Fans that thought they got their hands on
material from the forthcoming new studio album from Radiohead may be disappointed
to know that the songs they downloaded off of the net are "a stolen copy
of early, unmixed edits and roughs," according to guitarist Jonny Greenwood.
"It doesn't even exist as a record yet.
So yes, we're annoyed," said Greenwood who complained that fans may get
the wrong impression from the bootlegs, thinking that the band have given
up on the songs last February, (which is what you're hearing) and it's
just a shame that, to your ears, we did[give up]."
The band doesnt fear that bootlegging
may diminish album sales when the actual cd is released. Their last two
releases found widespread bootlegging on the web prior to release but both
albums still debuted at No. 1 on the charts the week they were released.
