Radiohead have released 18 hours of demo material from the era they wrote and recorded 'OK Computer', 1995-1998.
The band, whose last album was 2016's 'A Moon Shaped Pool', while they also released ‘OK Computer OKNOTOK 1997-2017’ in 2017, made the decision after they got hacked. In a statement, Jonny Greenwood said: "Someone stole Thom’s [York - frontman] minidisk archive from around the time of OK Computer, and reportedly demanded $150,000 on threat of releasing it."
For the next 18 days you will able to purchase the 18 hours of music, which they've called '[Minidiscs] Hacked', for £18 via their Bandcamp. All proceeds will go to Extinction Rebellion.
