Radiohead's new album, available as a download since last month, is being released on CD and vinyl Tuesday. A free Radiohead newspaper, The Universal Sigh, will be handed out in cities around the world, including Toronto, at Yonge-Dundas Square from 1 p.m. Tuesday.
Radiohead fans have two reasons to be excited about March 29.
Not only is the band's latest album, The King of Limbs, released on CD and vinyl in stores and on iTunes that day, but the newspaper that goes with it, The Universal Sigh, will also be distributed on Tuesday. Among the locales getting the free paper are the Netherlands, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Finland, Estonia, Australia, the U.K. and the U.S.
In Canada, the paper – whose contents remain a mystery – will be handed out in Montreal, Vancouver and Toronto, where fans can get theirs at the northwest corner of Yonge-Dundas Square beginning at 1 p.m. (The full list of locations is available here.)
"Our dedicated teams of newspaper delivery people will be handing out copies of The Universal Sigh to anyone who wants one, until we run out," the paper's official website states.
The paper's website will also feature photos taken by readers with their copy of the newspaper "in locations diverse and unusual."
The website adds: "There will be other stuff too, but we haven't thought of it yet."
The King of Limbs, which has been available for digital download since Feb 18, is the band's eighth album.
Radiohead also plans to measure the environmental impact of the project, and retire the carbons that are used via the Carbon Retirement project.
