In Rainbows by Radiohead

In 2007, Radiohead released *In Rainbows* with an unusual offer: listeners could choose how much to pay—even nothing. Released independently of a major label, that decision became part of the album’s spirit of freedom. The release was kept so secret that Ed O’Brien hadn’t even told his wife. Yet behind this surprise launch lay years of work: an early version of “Nude” dated back to the *OK Computer* sessions. Colin Greenwood’s new bassline helped give the song its final form. The album’s visual world is just as unexpected as its history. Stanley Donwood’s “rainbow” evokes toxic colours shimmering across a puddle—a beauty accompanied by an unsettling tension. This artwork brings the music and story of *In Rainbows* into your space: an album that gave listeners freedom of choice and breathed new life into songs years in the making.
