    Radiohead 'Hail To The Thief'

    One more thing. (If I wasn't a fan, I wouldn't care, and I'd stop posting; but I am, and I do, so I will.) In discussing the album with a close friend, he remarked that the album is completely joy-less. Spot on. OKC painted a grim picture of things but, in brief flashes, there is passion...

Band members, studio staff and a few record company folks ought...

    Haven't heard the "leaked" stuff, but I'd bet that the band is responsible. If you don't want the music to get out, then it doesn't. Nowadays, anything other than a strict system of preventing a leakage--in the case of a band like this--is going to allow for this type of thing. My question...
