Mark wrote in to tell us that in the?December issue of Bang magazine, Jonny brought up the oft-rumoured remix album.
“They sound great. I would hope?[the remix album]?would be released at the beginning of next year, but we really don’t know whether to make it a whole record or a series of smaller releases. But then we’ve also been talking about doing a B-sides record as well. We talk and talk!”

Artists who have produced remixes of tracks from Hail To The Thief include Cristian Vogel, Kid Koala, Madlib, Four Tet, and Radiohead’s very own Thom Yorke (who has produced a new version of ‘We Suck Young Blood’).
(Thanks to Mark.)

In this week’s special Radiohead section, NME is reporting that the much-rumoured Radiohead Live DVD will be released around April 2004. It is said to contain material from the recent tour as well as content from The Greatest Lying Mouth of All Time.
Please note that the key word in the paragraph above is rumoured. We’ll keep you posted.

Cheers, Ade, from your friends at Green Plastic.

This week’s print issue of NME features none other than Radiohead on the cover (along with the headline, and I swear I’m not kidding here, “Kid Wa-Hey!”). Inside you’ll find a rather colorful 8-page photo pullout, featuring information on some of NME’s favorite shows as well as a sort of “Radiohead Year in Review”.
Also included is the result of NME’s Best Radiohead Songs Ever poll, and Street Spirit tops the chart.
I sometimes wonder what the good people over at NME would do if Radiohead, The Darkness, and The Strokes suddenly dropped off the face of the planet. More space for the White Stripes, I suppose.

Just a friendly reminder, the last day to order from w.a.s.t.e. and have your goodies arrive before Christmas is…
December 18th if you’re in the UK.
December 12th if you’re elsewhere in Europe.
December 11th if you’re in Canada, Japan, or the States.
December 8th if you live anywhere else.
Happy Capitalism to you…
