Radiohead have released 18 hours of outtakes and material from its OK Computer era on Bandcamp days after it was leaked online. Proceed from the limited 18 day sale will go to climate change activists Extinction Rebellion.
“Someone stole Thom’s minidisk archive from around the time of OK Computer, and reportedly demanded $150,000 on threat of releasing it. So instead of complaining – much – or ignoring it, we’re releasing all 18 hours on Bandcamp in aid of Extinction Rebellion… So for £18 you can find out if we should have paid that ransom.” – Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood
