In Rainbows is the seventh studio album past the English rock band Radiohead. It was self-released on 10 Oct 2007 as a pay-what-you-want download, followed by a physical release internationally through Xl Recordings and in Due north America through TBD Records. It was Radiohead'due south first release after their recording contract with EMI concluded with their album Hail to the Thief (2003).

Radiohead began work on In Rainbows in early 2005. In 2006, subsequently initial recording sessions with new producer Fasten Stent proved fruitless, the ring toured Europe and N America, performing the new fabric. After re-enlisting longtime producer Nigel Godrich, Radiohead recorded in the country houses Halswell House and Tottenham House, the Infirmary Social club in London, and their studio in Oxfordshire. They incorporated a variety of styles and instruments, using electronic instruments, strings, piano and the ondes Martenot. The lyrics are less political and more personal than previous Radiohead albums.

EMI, which had been recently acquired past Terra Firma, hoped to sign Radiohead to a new record contract; however, Radiohead did not trust the new management and negotiations collapsed over ownership of their dorsum catalogue. Instead, they self-released In Rainbows online, saying this removed barriers between artists and fans and liberated them from traditional promotional formats. The pay-what-you-want release, the first for a major act, made headlines internationally and created debate nearly the implications for the music manufacture; some praised Radiohead for challenging old models and finding new means to connect with fans, while others felt it set a dangerous precedent at the expense of less successful artists.

Radiohead promoted In Rainbows with webcasts, music videos, remix and music video competitions, and a worldwide bout. "Jigsaw Falling into Identify" and "Nude" were released as singles; "Nude" became Radiohead's first US top-forty song since their debut single "Creep" (1992). The retail release of In Rainbows topped the Great britain Albums Nautical chart and the U.s.a. Billboard 200, and by October 2008 the anthology had sold over iii million copies worldwide. It received critical acclaim, winning Grammy Awards for Best Alternative Music Album and Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Parcel, and was ranked one of the all-time albums of the twelvemonth and the decade by diverse publications. Rolling Rock ranked In Rainbows on its updated lists of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Fourth dimension at number 336 in 2012 and number 387 in 2020.

Background [edit]

In 2004, later finishing the world tour for their sixth studio album Hail to the Thief (2003), Radiohead went on hiatus. As Hail to the Thief was the last album released under their six-anthology contract with EMI, they had no contractual obligation to release new material. According to the New York Times in 2006, Radiohead were "by far the globe'due south most pop unsigned band".[i]

Drummer Philip Selway said Radiohead yet wanted to create music, but took a break to focus on other areas of their lives, and the end of their contract provided a natural point to pause and reverberate.[ii] Vocalizer and songwriter Thom Yorke recorded his first solo anthology, The Eraser (2006), and multi-instrumentalist Jonny Greenwood equanimous his get-go solo works, the soundtracks Bodysong (2004) and There Will Exist Blood (2007).[ii]

Recording [edit]

In March 2005, Radiohead began writing and recording in their Oxfordshire studio. They initially chose to work without their longtime producer Nigel Godrich; according to guitarist Ed O'Brien, "Nosotros were a niggling bit in the comfort zone ... We've been working together for x years, and we all dearest one another too much."[3] Bassist Colin Greenwood afterwards denied this, saying Godrich had been busy working with Charlotte Gainsbourg and Beck.[4] At the Ether Festival in July 2005, Greenwood and Yorke performed a version of the time to come In Rainbows track "Weird Fishes/Arpeggi" with the London Sinfonietta orchestra and the Arab Orchestra of Nazareth.[5]

Radiohead performing live at the Greek Theatre, Berkeley, California, during their 2006 bout. Radiohead used the bout to exam songs later recorded for In Rainbows.

Regular recording sessions began in August 2005, with Radiohead updating fans on their progress intermittently on their new blog, Dead Air Infinite. The sessions were dull, and the band struggled to regain confidence; according to Yorke, "We spent a long time in the studio only not going anywhere, wasting our time, and that was really, really frustrating."[1] They attributed their slow progress to a lack of momentum afterwards their break,[1] the lack of deadline and producer[2] and the fact that all the members had become fathers.[6] O'Brien said the band considered splitting upwardly, but kept working "because when you got across all the shit and the bollocks, the core of these songs were actually expert".[2]

In December 2005, Radiohead hired producer Spike Stent, who had worked with artists including U2 and Björk, to assistance them work through their material. O'Brien told Mojo: "Spike listened to the stuff we'd been self-producing. These weren't demos, they'd been recorded in proper studios, and he said, 'The sounds aren't proficient enough.'"[2] Yet, the collaboration with Stent was unsuccessful.[seven]

In an endeavour to break the deadlock, Radiohead decided to tour for the beginning time since 2004. They performed in Europe and North America in May and June 2006, and returned to Europe for several festivals in August, performing many new songs.[1] According to Yorke, the tour forced them to stop writing the songs. He said: "Rather than it being a nightmare, it was really, really adept fun, because all of a sudden everyone is being spontaneous and no one's self-witting because y'all're not in the studio ... It felt like being xvi once more."[1]

Later on the tour, Radiohead scrapped their recordings and re-enlisted Godrich,[7] who, co-ordinate to Yorke, "gave us a walloping kicking upwardly the arse".[8] In October 2006, recording restarted at Tottenham House in Marlborough, Wiltshire, a land house scouted by Godrich where Radiohead worked for iii weeks. The band members lived in caravans, as the edifice was in a state of busted;[2] Yorke described it as "derelict in the stricter sense of the word, where there's holes in the floor, pelting coming through the ceilings, half the window panes missing ... There were places you simply basically didn't go. Information technology definitely had an effect. It had some pretty strange vibes."[eight] The sessions were productive, and the band recorded "Jigsaw Falling into Place" and "Bodysnatchers".[9] In October, Yorke wrote on Dead Air Space that Radiohead had "started the record properly now ... starting to get somewhere I think. Finally."[10]

In December 2006, sessions took place at Halswell Business firm, Taunton, and Godrich's Hospital studio in Covent Garden, London, where Radiohead recorded "Videotape" and "Nude".[2] [9] In January 2007, Radiohead resumed recording in their Oxfordshire studio and started to post photos, lyrics, videos and samples of new songs on Dead Air Infinite.[xi] In June, having wrapped up recording, Godrich posted clips of songs on Dead Air Space.[12] [xiii]

Excluding "Terminal Flowers", which Yorke recorded in the Eraser sessions,[9] the In Rainbows sessions produced 16 songs.[14] Feeling Hail to the Thief was overlong, Radiohead wanted their next album to be concise.[14] Yorke said: "I believe in the rock album as an artistic form of expression. In Rainbows is a conscious return to this form of 45-minute argument ... Our aim was to describe in 45 minutes, as coherently and conclusively as possible, what moves us."[xv] They settled on 10 songs, saving the rest for a bonus disc included in the limited edition.[16] The anthology was mastered by Bob Ludwig in July 2007 at Gateway Mastering, New York City.[17]

Songs [edit]

Music [edit]

In Rainbows incorporates elements of art rock,[18] experimental rock,[18] [19] art pop,[20] and electronica.[21] The opening track, "xv Pace", features a handclap rhythm inspired past "Fuck the Pain Abroad" past Peaches.[2] Radiohead recorded handclaps by a group of children from the Matrix Music School & Arts Heart in Oxford;[22] when the clapping proved "not quite skilful enough", they recorded the children cheering instead.[23]

"Bodysnatchers", which Yorke described as a combination of Wolfmother, Neu! and "dodgy hippy rock",[2] was recorded when he was in a menstruum of "hyperactive mania".[23] On "All I Demand", Jonny Greenwood wanted to capture the white noise generated by a band playing loudly in a room, which never occurs in the studio. His solution was to accept a string department play every note of the scale, blanketing the frequencies.[24]

Radiohead recorded a version of "Nude" during the OK Figurer sessions, but discarded it; this version was inspired by Al Greenish, and featured a Hammond organ, a "straighter" feel, and different lyrics.[25] During the early sessions for In Rainbows, Colin Greenwood wrote a new bassline for the song, which, according to Godrich, "transformed it from something very straight into something that had much more of a rhythmic menstruation".[25] "Reckoner" features Yorke's falsetto, "frosty, clanging" percussion, a "meandering" guitar line, piano, and a string arrangement by guitarist Jonny Greenwood.[26] Yorke described the song as "kind of a dearest vocal ... Sort of."[27] Radiohead developed it from some other song by the same name;[14] Yorke released the original vocal equally a solo unmarried, "Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses", in 2009.[28]

Yorke described the process of composing "Videotape" as "absolute desperation", and said information technology "went through every possible parameter".[29] He initially wanted it to exist a "post-rave trance track", similar to the music of Surgeon,[29] and Jonny Greenwood was "obsessed" with shifting the first of the bar.[29] A more than traditional arrangement, performed on Radiohead'southward 2006 bout, featured Selway'south drums edifice to a climax.[30] Eventually, Godrich and Greenwood stripped the song down to a minimal pianoforte ballad with percussion from a Roland TR-909 drum car.[30]

Lyrics [edit]

Yorke said that the In Rainbows lyrics are based on "that bearding fear matter, sitting in traffic, thinking, 'I'm sure I'g supposed to exist doing something else' ... it'southward similar to OK Reckoner in a way. Information technology'southward much more terrifying."[31] He said that, unlike Hail to the Thief, there was "very fiddling anger" in In Rainbows: "It'south in no way political, or, at to the lowest degree, doesn't feel that way to me. It very much explores the ideas of transience. It starts in 1 identify and ends somewhere completely unlike."[32] In another interview, Yorke said the album was "about the fucking panic of realising you're going to dice! And that any time shortly [I could] possibly [have] a center attack when I next go for a run."[33]

O'Brien described the lyrics as "universal. In that location wasn't a political agenda. It'due south existence human."[14] The song "Bodysnatchers" was inspired by Victorian ghost stories, the 1972 novel The Stepford Wives and Yorke's feeling of "your concrete consciousness trapped without beingness able to connect fully with anything else".[24] "Jigsaw Falling into Place" was inspired by the chaos witnessed past Yorke when he used to go out on the weekend in Oxford. He said: "The lyrics are quite caustic—the idea of 'before you're asleep' or whatsoever, drinking yourself into oblivion and getting fucked-upward to forget ... [There] is partly this elation. But there's a much darker side."[23]

Artwork [edit]

The In Rainbows artwork was designed past longtime Radiohead collaborator Stanley Donwood.[34] Donwood worked in the studio while Radiohead worked on the album, allowing the artwork to convey the mood of the music.[32] He displayed images in the studio and on the studio computer for the band to interact with and comment on. He likewise posted images daily on the Radiohead website, though none were used in the terminal artwork.[35]

Donwood experimented with photographic etching, putting prints into acid baths[36] and throwing wax at paper, creating images influenced by NASA space photography.[32] He originally planned to explore suburban life, just realised it did non fit the anthology, maxim "it'south a sensual record and I wanted to practice something more organic". He described the last artwork equally "very colourful ... Information technology's a rainbow only information technology is very toxic, it's more like the sort of one you'd see in a puddle."[37] Radiohead did non release the encompass for the digital release, preferring to concur it back for the concrete release.[37] The express edition includes a booklet containing boosted artwork by Donwood.[36]

Release [edit]

On 1 October 2007, Jonny Greenwood announced the anthology on Radiohead'due south blog, writing: "Well, the new anthology is finished, and it's coming out in 10 days; nosotros've called it In Rainbows."[38] The mail service contained a link to inrainbows.com, where users could pre-lodge an MP3 version of the album for any amount they wanted, including £0.[38]

The release was landmark utilise of the pay-what-you-desire model for music sales.[24] Information technology was suggested by Radiohead's managers, Bryce Border and Chris Hufford, in Apr 2007.[33] According to Selway, "Considering [the album] was taking quite long, our direction were twiddling thumbs at points and they were just coming upwardly with ideas. And this was one that really stuck."[33] Colin Greenwood explained the release equally a mode of fugitive the "regulated playlists" and "straitened formats" of radio and TV, ensuring listeners effectually the earth would feel the music at the aforementioned time, and preventing leaks in advance of a concrete release.[39] He said that the decision had non been made for financial gain, and that if coin had been Radiohead'southward motivation, they would have accepted an offering from Universal Records.[29]

Formats and distribution [edit]

For the In Rainbows download, Radiohead employed the network provider PacketExchange to bypass public cyberspace servers, using a less-trafficked private network.[forty] The download was packaged equally a Nil file containing the album'southward ten tracks encoded in a 160 kbit/s DRM-gratis MP3 format.[41] The staggered online release began at about 5:30am GMT on 10 October 2007. On ten December, the download was removed.[42]

Fans could also order a limited "discbox" edition from Radiohead's website, containing the album on CD and two 12" heavyweight 45 rpm vinyl records with artwork and lyric booklets, plus an enhanced CD with eight additional tracks, digital photos and artwork, packaged in a hardcover volume and slipcase. The express edition was shipped from December 2007.[43] In June 2009, Radiohead made the second In Rainbows disc available for download on their website for £half dozen.[44]

Radiohead ruled out an internet-only distribution, saying that fourscore% of people all the same bought physical releases and that it was important for them to have "an object".[45] In Rainbows was released on CD and vinyl in Nippon past BMG on 26 December 2007,[46] in Commonwealth of australia on 29 December 2007 by Remote Control Records,[47] and in the United States and Canada on 1 January 2008 by ATO imprint TBD Records and MapleMusic/Fontana respectively.[48] [49] Elsewhere, the album was released on 31 December 2007 by independent record label XL Recordings,[50] which had released Yorke'due south solo album The Eraser.[51] The CD release came in a cardboard bundle containing the CD, lyric booklet, and several stickers that could be placed on the bare gem case to create encompass art.[52] In Rainbows was the first Radiohead album available for download in several digital music stores, such as the iTunes Store and Amazon MP3.[53] On ten June 2016, it was added to the free streaming service Spotify.[54]

Radiohead retained buying of the recordings and compositions for In Rainbows. The download and limited editions of the anthology were self-released; for the retail release, Radiohead licensed the music to record labels.[55] Licensing agreements for all releases were managed by their publisher, Warner Chappell Music Publishing.[55]

Reaction [edit]

The pay-what-you-want release, the outset for a major musical act, attracted international media attending and sparked debate almost the implications for the music industry.[24] According to Mojo, the release was "hailed equally a revolution in the way major bands sell their music", and the media's reaction was "almost overwhelmingly positive".[9] Time called it "easily the most important release in the recent history of the music business"[56] and Jon Pareles of The New York Times wrote that "for the beleaguered recording business organization Radiohead has put in motion the nearly adventurous experiment in years".[24] NME wrote that "the music world seemed to judder several rimes off its axis", and praised the fact that anybody, from fans to critics, had admission to the album at the same fourth dimension on release day: "the kind of moment of togetherness you don't get very often".[57] U2 singer Bono praised Radiohead as "courageous and imaginative in trying to effigy out some new human relationship with their audience".[58] Courtney Love wrote on her weblog: "The kamikaze pilot in me wants to practise the same damn thing. I'm grateful for Radiohead for making the first move."[33] Jay-Z described the release as "genius".[33]

The release also drew criticism. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails thought it did not go far enough, and accused Radiohead of using a compressed digital release every bit a allurement-and-switch to promote a traditional record sale. Reznor independently released his sixth album Ghosts I–Four nether a Creative Commons licence the following year.[59] Singer Lily Allen said the release was "arrogant" and sent a bad message to less successful acts, saying: "You don't cull how to pay for eggs. Why should information technology exist unlike for music?"[60] Sonic Youth bassist Kim Gordon said the release "seemed actually community-oriented, just it wasn't catered towards their musician brothers and sisters, who don't sell every bit many records [every bit Radiohead]. Information technology makes everyone else wait bad for non offer their music for whatsoever."[61] Guardian journalist Will Hodgkinson argued that Radiohead had fabricated it impossible for less successful musicians to brand a living from their music.[62] The release surprised record executives; an unidentified executive at a major European label told Time: "This feels like yet another death knell. If the all-time band in the world doesn't desire a part of us, I'm not sure what's left for this business."[56]

U2 manager Paul McGuinness said that 60 to 70 per centum of Radiohead fans had pirated the album, and saw this as an indication that Radiohead'south strategy had failed.[63] Nevertheless, media measurement visitor BigChampagne concluded that the music industry should non call back of piracy equally lost sales, equally Radiohead had shown that even releasing music free had non deterred it.[64] Based on this report, Wired concluded that "past 'losing' the boxing for the email addresses of those who downloaded their album via scrap torrent, [Radiohead] actually won the overall war for the public'south attention – no piece of cake feat, these days".[64] In a retrospective article, NME argued that Radiohead had demonstrated that the best response to piracy was to explore alternative ways to connect with fans, offer content at different cost points: "The pay-what-you-want attribute isn't something to be followed slavishly ... It's the willingness to try information technology and the connectedness with fans that made information technology successful that should be an inspiration."[65]

Responding to criticisms, Jonny Greenwood said Radiohead were responding to the civilization of downloading free music, which he likened to the fable of King Canute: "You can't pretend the inundation isn't happening."[33] Colin said the criticism was "worrying about all these coincident questions and forgetting nearly the cardinal urge of people to share and savour music. And there'southward ever going to exist a way of finding money or livings to exist made out of it."[33] Yorke told the BBC: "We have a moral justification in what we did in the sense that the majors and the large infrastructure of the music business has not addressed the way artists communicate directly with their fans ... Not but do they arrive the way, but they have all the greenbacks."[45]

Radiohead'due south managers defended the release every bit "a solution for Radiohead, not the industry", and doubted "it would piece of work the same way [for Radiohead] ever again".[66] Radiohead have not used the pay-what-you-desire system for subsequent releases.[67] In February 2013, Yorke told the Guardian that though Radiohead had hoped to subvert the corporate music industry with In Rainbows, he feared they had instead played into the hands of content providers such as Apple tree and Google: "They take to go along commodifying things to keep the share price up, but in doing then they have made all content, including music and newspapers, worthless, in order to brand their billions. And this is what nosotros want?"[68]

Dispute with EMI [edit]

New EMI owner Guy Hands (pictured in 2019) clashed with Radiohead in public statements.

Equally Radiohead'south recording contract with EMI concluded in 2003, Radiohead recorded In Rainbows without a record label. Shortly earlier piece of work began, Yorke told Time: "I like the people at our record company, just the time is at paw when you accept to ask why anyone needs one. And, yes, it probably would give u.s.a. some perverse pleasure to say 'fuck you' to this decaying business organisation model."[56]

In Baronial 2007, as Radiohead were finishing In Rainbows, EMI was acquired by the private equity firm Terra Firma for US$six.4 billion (£4.vii billion), with Guy Hands as the new chief executive.[69] EMI executives including Keith Wozencroft, who had signed Radiohead to EMI, travelled regularly to Radiohead's Oxfordshire studio in hopes of negotiating a new contract.[51] The executives were "devastated" when Radiohead's squad informed them of their self-release plan a mean solar day before the album was announced.[51] O'Brien afterward said he had not realised the ring's importance to EMI: "That probably sounds actually naive. But in that location weren't people going, 'You're so important.' We were merely i of the bands on their roster."[70] Easily believed that Radiohead would only have canceled their self-release plan with a "really large" offer.[51] According to Eamonn Forde, author of The Terminal Days of EMI, Radiohead had lost faith in EMI and thought the new ownership would be a "bloodbath".[51] O'Brien said Radiohead initially believed a deal with EMI could have been made, and said: "It was really pitiful to leave all the people [nosotros'd worked with] ... But Terra Firma don't sympathise the music industry."[33]

An EMI spokesperson stated that Radiohead had demanded "an boggling amount of money" for a new contract.[71] Yorke and Radiohead'due south management released statements denying that they had asked for a big accelerate, but had instead wanted command over their back catalogue,[71] [72] which Hands had refused.[51] Co-ordinate to Easily: "They wanted a lot of money ... And they wanted their masters back, which we valued fifty-fifty more. At our valuation, it was millions and millions that they wanted."[51] Responding to Hands's statement, Yorke told an interviewer: "It fucking pissed me off. We could take taken them to court. The idea that nosotros were after so much money was stretching the truth to breaking point. That was his PR visitor briefing against us and I'll tell you what, it fucking ruined my Christmas."[51]

Days afterward Radiohead signed to XL, EMI appear a box prepare of Radiohead textile recorded before In Rainbows, released in the same calendar week equally the In Rainbows special edition. Radiohead were reportedly "incensed" at the release;[51] commentators including the Guardian saw information technology as retaliation for the band choosing not to sign with EMI.[73] Hands defended the reissues as necessary to boost EMI'south revenues, and said that "nosotros don't have a huge corporeality of reasons to be nice [to Radiohead]".[51] The box set was promoted on Google Ads with an advert falsely claiming that In Rainbows was included; EMI removed it, citing a "data source glitch". A spokesperson for Radiohead said they accepted this was a genuine fault.[74]

Promotion [edit]

Following the album release, Radiohead broadcast two webcasts from their Oxfordshire studio: "Thumbs Downwardly" in November 2007 and "Scotch Mist" on New year's day'due south Eve. In the United states of america, "Scotch Mist" was too broadcast on Current Idiot box. The webcasts featured performances of In Rainbows songs, covers of songs by New Club and the Smiths,[75] poetry, and videos created with comedian Adam Buxton and filmmaker Garth Jennings.[76] [77] Colin Greenwood described the webcasts as spontaneous and liberating: "It was so cool because we didn't accept to go through three weeks of video commissioning and receiving dodgy scripts prepare on abandoned skyscrapers in downtown LA or something."[77]

In March 2008, Radiohead ran a contest with animation company Aniboom whereby entrants submitted concepts for animated music videos for In Rainbows songs. Semifinalists were chosen by TBD Records and the Cartoon Network programming block Adult Swim.[78] Unable to choose only one winner, Radiohead awarded the full prize coin of $10,000 each to 4 semifinalists, who created videos for "15 Footstep", "Weird Fishes", "Reckoner" and "Videotape".[79] Radiohead held remix competitions for "Nude" and "Figurer", releasing the separated stems for fans to download; the entries were streamed on the Radiohead website.[80]

The first unmarried from In Rainbows, "Jigsaw Falling into Place", was released in January 2008,[81] followed by "Nude" on 31 March.[82] They were accompanied past music videos directed past Buxton and Jennings.[83] [84] "Nude" debuted at number 37 on the Billboard Hot 100; additional past sales of the remix stems, information technology was the first Radiohead song to enter the chart since "Loftier and Dry" (1995) and their first US top-twoscore song since their debut single "Creep" (1992).[85] [86] In July, Radiohead released a video for "Business firm of Cards", made with lidar engineering science instead of cameras.[87] In Feb 2009, Yorke and Jonny Greenwood performed "15 Step" with the University of Southern California Marching Band at the televised 51st Almanac Grammy Awards.[88]

Tour [edit]

On 16 January 2008, a surprise Radiohead operation at the London record shop Rough Trade East was relocated to a nearby gild after police raised condom concerns.[89] Radiohead toured North America, Europe, Due south America and Japan from May 2008 until March 2009.[90] [91] To determine how they could reduce carbon emissions for the tour, Radiohead commissioned the environmental group All-time Human foot Forward.[92] Based on the findings, Radiohead played in amphitheatres in urban center centres to reduce reliance on flights for attendees,[93] and used a carbon-neutral "forest" of LEDs on stage.[94] Radiohead recorded a live video, In Rainbows — From the Basement, broadcast on VH1 in May 2008.[95]

Sales [edit]

Digital [edit]

In early Oct 2007, a Radiohead spokesperson reported that well-nigh downloaders paid "a normal retail price" for the digital version of In Rainbows, and that most fans had pre-ordered the express edition.[96] Citing a source shut to the band, Gigwise reported that In Rainbows had sold 1.2 million digital copies before its retail release;[97] this was dismissed by Radiohead's co-manager Bryce Border as "exaggerated".[98]

According to enquiry released in November 2007 by the market research firm Comscore, downloaders paid an average of $2.26 per download globally, and 62% of downloaders paid nothing.[99] Of those who paid, the average paid was $6 globally, with 12% paying between $8 and $12, around the typical cost of an anthology on iTunes.[99] Radiohead dismissed the report equally "wholly inaccurate",[100] but said that the results had been good.[33] In December 2007, Yorke said that Radiohead had made more money from digital sales of In Rainbows than the digital sales of all previous Radiohead albums combined.[29]

In October 2008, one year later on the release, Warner Chappell reported that although most people paid cipher for the download, prerelease sales for In Rainbows had been more than profitable than the total sales of Hail to the Thief and that the limited edition had sold 100,000 copies.[101] In 2009, Wired reported that Radiohead had made an "instantaneous" £three meg from the album.[102] Pitchfork saw this equally proof that, thanks to their fans, "Radiohead could release a record on the most secretive terms, basically for free, and still be wildly successful, even as industry profits connected to plummet."[103]

According to the media measurement company BigChampagne, on the day of release, around 400,000 copies of In Rainbows were pirated via torrent. Information technology had been shared ii.3 1000000 times past iii November 2007. At its peak, it was shared many times more than than the second-nigh shared album released in the same menstruum. Some piracy came from users driven to torrents later the official website overloaded.[64]

Because inrainbows.com is not a chart-registered retailer, In Rainbows download and limited edition sales were not eligible for inclusion in the UK Albums Chart.[104] On the calendar week of its retail release, In Rainbows reached number one on the UK Albums Chart,[105] with first-week sales of 44,602 copies.[106] In the US, after some record stores broke street date agreements, it entered the Billboard 200 at number 156.

Pitchfork's Chris Dahlen wrote that "a lesser band might take crammed some bootlegs and demo takes in hither, but when Radiohead put something on disc, they want it to count". However, he criticised Yorke's vocals: "The cynical/alienated rut into which he grinds himself has the persistence of a toothache ... Yorke sounds like neither a post-millennial prophet nor an uncanny empathist, so much as a creepo."[146]

David Fricke of Rolling Stone wrote that "If yous bought the deluxe box edition of In Rainbows but for the session leftovers, you did not go your eighty dollars' worth" simply conceded that it did "deserve to exist on record".[147] Stereogum wrote "the nigh impressive matter about In Rainbows CD2 is how effortless it all seems".[148]
