In Rainbows is the 7th studio anthology past the English stone band Radiohead. Information technology was self-released on 10 October 2007 equally 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 ended with their album Hail to the Thief (2003).

Radiohead began piece of work on In Rainbows in early 2005. In 2006, after initial recording sessions with new producer Spike Stent proved fruitless, the band toured Europe and North America, performing the new material. After re-enlisting longtime producer Nigel Godrich, Radiohead recorded in the land houses Halswell House and Tottenham House, the Hospital Guild in London, and their studio in Oxfordshire. They incorporated a variety of styles and instruments, using electronic instruments, strings, pianoforte and the ondes Martenot. The lyrics are less political and more personal than previous Radiohead albums.

EMI, which had been recently caused by Terra Firma, hoped to sign Radiohead to a new record contract; however, Radiohead did not trust the new management and negotiations collapsed over buying of their back 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-desire release, the first for a major act, made headlines internationally and created debate nigh the implications for the music manufacture; some praised Radiohead for challenging erstwhile models and finding new ways 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 tour. "Jigsaw Falling into Place" and "Nude" were released equally singles; "Nude" became Radiohead'due south first Us summit-twoscore song since their debut single "Creep" (1992). The retail release of In Rainbows topped the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200, and by October 2008 the album had sold over 3 million copies worldwide. It received critical acclaim, winning Grammy Awards for Best Culling Music Album and Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Parcel, and was ranked one of the best albums of the year and the decade by various publications. Rolling Stone ranked In Rainbows on its updated lists of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time at number 336 in 2012 and number 387 in 2020.

Background [edit]

In 2004, after finishing the globe tour for their sixth studio anthology Hail to the Thief (2003), Radiohead went on hiatus. Every bit Hail to the Thief was the last album released nether their six-album 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 world's most popular unsigned band".[1]

Drummer Philip Selway said Radiohead still wanted to create music, but took a suspension to focus on other areas of their lives, and the end of their contract provided a natural point to pause and reflect.[ii] Vocaliser and songwriter Thom Yorke recorded his first solo album, The Eraser (2006), and multi-instrumentalist Jonny Greenwood composed his start solo works, the soundtracks Bodysong (2004) and There Volition Be Blood (2007).[2]

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, "We were a fiddling bit in the condolement zone ... Nosotros've been working together for 10 years, and nosotros all love one some other too much."[3] Bassist Colin Greenwood subsequently denied this, saying Godrich had been busy working with Charlotte Gainsbourg and Beck.[iv] At the Ether Festival in July 2005, Greenwood and Yorke performed a version of the hereafter In Rainbows track "Weird Fishes/Arpeggi" with the London Sinfonietta orchestra and the Arab Orchestra of Nazareth.[five]

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

Regular recording sessions began in Baronial 2005, with Radiohead updating fans on their progress intermittently on their new weblog, Dead Air Space. The sessions were boring, and the band struggled to regain confidence; according to Yorke, "We spent a long fourth dimension in the studio just not going anywhere, wasting our time, and that was really, actually frustrating."[1] They attributed their dull progress to a lack of momentum after their interruption,[1] the lack of borderline and producer[2] and the fact that all the members had become fathers.[6] O'Brien said the band considered splitting up, just kept working "because when you got beyond all the shit and the bollocks, the core of these songs were really practiced".[2]

In December 2005, Radiohead hired producer Spike Stent, who had worked with artists including U2 and Björk, to help them piece of work through their material. O'Brien told Mojo: "Spike listened to the stuff nosotros'd been self-producing. These weren't demos, they'd been recorded in proper studios, and he said, 'The sounds aren't expert enough.'"[2] However, the collaboration with Stent was unsuccessful.[7]

In an effort to break the deadlock, Radiohead decided to bout for the get-go 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 finish writing the songs. He said: "Rather than it being a nightmare, it was really, really skillful fun, considering suddenly anybody is being spontaneous and no one's self-conscious because you're not in the studio ... It felt like being 16 once again."[1]

Later the tour, Radiohead scrapped their recordings and re-enlisted Godrich,[vii] who, according to Yorke, "gave us a walloping boot up the arse".[8] In Oct 2006, recording restarted at Tottenham Firm in Marlborough, Wiltshire, a land house scouted by Godrich where Radiohead worked for three weeks. The band members lived in caravans, every bit the building was in a state of busted;[2] Yorke described it as "derelict in the stricter sense of the word, where in that location's holes in the floor, rain coming through the ceilings, half the window panes missing ... There were places you just basically didn't get. Information technology definitely had an upshot. It had some pretty strange vibes."[8] The sessions were productive, and the ring recorded "Jigsaw Falling into Place" and "Bodysnatchers".[9] In October, Yorke wrote on Expressionless Air Space that Radiohead had "started the record properly now ... starting to get somewhere I think. Finally."[x]

In December 2006, sessions took identify at Halswell Business firm, Taunton, and Godrich'south Hospital studio in Covent Garden, London, where Radiohead recorded "Videotape" and "Nude".[two] [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 Space.[eleven] In June, having wrapped upwardly recording, Godrich posted clips of songs on Expressionless Air Space.[12] [13]

Excluding "Last Flowers", which Yorke recorded in the Eraser sessions,[9] the In Rainbows sessions produced 16 songs.[xiv] Feeling Hail to the Thief was overlong, Radiohead wanted their adjacent album to be concise.[14] Yorke said: "I believe in the rock album as an creative form of expression. In Rainbows is a witting return to this grade of 45-minute argument ... Our aim was to describe in 45 minutes, as coherently and conclusively as possible, what moves us."[15] They settled on 10 songs, saving the rest for a bonus disc included in the limited edition.[sixteen] The album was mastered by Bob Ludwig in July 2007 at Gateway Mastering, New York Metropolis.[17]

Songs [edit]

Music [edit]

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

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

Radiohead recorded a version of "Nude" during the OK Computer sessions, just discarded it; this version was inspired by Al Green, 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 vocal, which, co-ordinate to Godrich, "transformed information technology from something very direct into something that had much more of a rhythmic flow".[25] "Reckoner" features Yorke's falsetto, "frosty, clanging" percussion, a "meandering" guitar line, piano, and a cord system past guitarist Jonny Greenwood.[26] Yorke described the song every bit "kind of a love song ... Sort of."[27] Radiohead developed it from another song by the aforementioned proper noun;[14] Yorke released the original song as a solo single, "Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses", in 2009.[28]

Yorke described the process of composing "Videotape" every bit "absolute agony", and said it "went through every possible parameter".[29] He initially wanted it to be a "post-rave trance runway", similar to the music of Surgeon,[29] and Jonny Greenwood was "obsessed" with shifting the showtime of the bar.[29] A more than traditional organisation, performed on Radiohead's 2006 tour, featured Selway'due south drums building to a climax.[30] Somewhen, Godrich and Greenwood stripped the song down to a minimal piano ballad with percussion from a Roland TR-909 drum machine.[30]

Lyrics [edit]

Yorke said that the In Rainbows lyrics are based on "that anonymous fear thing, sitting in traffic, thinking, 'I'm certain I'm supposed to exist doing something else' ... it'due south similar to OK Computer in a way. It's much more than terrifying."[31] He said that, dissimilar Hail to the Thief, there was "very fiddling acrimony" in In Rainbows: "It's in no way political, or, at least, doesn't feel that style to me. Information technology very much explores the ideas of transience. It starts in ane place and ends somewhere completely different."[32] In another interview, Yorke said the album was "about the fucking panic of realising you're going to die! And that any time soon [I could] maybe [have] a middle attack when I next go for a run."[33]

O'Brien described the lyrics equally "universal. There wasn't a political agenda. It'southward beingness human."[fourteen] The song "Bodysnatchers" was inspired by Victorian ghost stories, the 1972 novel The Stepford Wives and Yorke's feeling of "your physical consciousness trapped without existence able to connect fully with anything else".[24] "Jigsaw Falling into Place" was inspired by the chaos witnessed by Yorke when he used to leave on the weekend in Oxford. He said: "The lyrics are quite caustic—the idea of 'earlier yous're comatose' or whatever, drinking yourself into oblivion and getting fucked-up to forget ... [There] is partly this bliss. 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 collaborate with and annotate on. He likewise posted images daily on the Radiohead website, though none were used in the final artwork.[35]

Donwood experimented with photographic carving, putting prints into acid baths[36] and throwing wax at newspaper, creating images influenced by NASA space photography.[32] He originally planned to explore suburban life, but realised it did non fit the anthology, saying "it's a sensual record and I wanted to exercise something more organic". He described the final artwork as "very colourful ... It's a rainbow simply it is very toxic, information technology'southward more than similar the sort of one you'd see in a puddle."[37] Radiohead did non release the cover for the digital release, preferring to concur information technology back for the concrete release.[37] The limited edition includes a booklet containing additional artwork by Donwood.[36]

Release [edit]

On 1 October 2007, Jonny Greenwood appear the album on Radiohead's 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 contained a link to inrainbows.com, where users could pre-order an MP3 version of the album for whatsoever corporeality they wanted, including £0.[38]

The release was landmark use of the pay-what-you-want model for music sales.[24] It was suggested by Radiohead's managers, Bryce Edge and Chris Hufford, in Apr 2007.[33] According to Selway, "Considering [the album] was taking quite long, our management were twiddling thumbs at points and they were just coming up with ideas. And this was 1 that really stuck."[33] Colin Greenwood explained the release equally a way of avoiding the "regulated playlists" and "straitened formats" of radio and TV, ensuring listeners around the world would feel the music at the same time, and preventing leaks in accelerate of a concrete release.[39] He said that the decision had not been made for financial gain, and that if coin had been Radiohead'due south motivation, they would have accepted an offer from Universal Records.[29]

Formats and distribution [edit]

For the In Rainbows download, Radiohead employed the network provider PacketExchange to featherbed public internet servers, using a less-trafficked individual network.[40] The download was packaged as a Aught file containing the album's ten tracks encoded in a 160 kbit/s DRM-complimentary MP3 format.[41] The staggered online release began at most v:30am GMT on 10 Oct 2007. On 10 December, the download was removed.[42]

Fans could also order a express "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 book and slipcase. The limited edition was shipped from Dec 2007.[43] In June 2009, Radiohead fabricated the second In Rainbows disc bachelor for download on their website for £6.[44]

Radiohead ruled out an internet-only distribution, saying that 80% of people still bought physical releases and that it was important for them to have "an object".[45] In Rainbows was released on CD and vinyl in Japan past BMG on 26 Dec 2007,[46] in Australia on 29 December 2007 by Remote Command 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 tape label Xl Recordings,[50] which had released Yorke'south solo anthology The Eraser.[51] The CD release came in a cardboard packet containing the CD, lyric booklet, and several stickers that could be placed on the blank jewel case to create cover art.[52] In Rainbows was the starting time Radiohead album available for download in several digital music stores, such as the iTunes Store and Amazon MP3.[53] On 10 June 2016, information technology was added to the free streaming service Spotify.[54]

Radiohead retained ownership of the recordings and compositions for In Rainbows. The download and express editions of the anthology were cocky-released; for the retail release, Radiohead licensed the music to tape 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 first for a major musical act, attracted international media attention and sparked debate about the implications for the music manufacture.[24] According to Mojo, the release was "hailed equally a revolution in the style major bands sell their music", and the media's reaction was "almost overwhelmingly positive".[ix] Time called information technology "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 Radiohead has put in motion the most audacious experiment in years".[24] NME wrote that "the music world seemed to judder several rimes off its axis", and praised the fact that everyone, from fans to critics, had access to the album at the same time on release mean solar day: "the kind of moment of togetherness you don't get very oft".[57] U2 vocaliser Bono praised Radiohead as "courageous and imaginative in trying to figure out some new relationship with their audience".[58] Courtney Love wrote on her blog: "The kamikaze airplane pilot in me wants to do the aforementioned damn affair. I'1000 grateful for Radiohead for making the first motility."[33] Jay-Z described the release as "genius".[33]

The release also drew criticism. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails idea it did non make it plenty, and accused Radiohead of using a compressed digital release every bit a bait-and-switch to promote a traditional record sale. Reznor independently released his sixth album Ghosts I–4 nether a Creative Eatables licence the following year.[59] Singer Lily Allen said the release was "arrogant" and sent a bad message to less successful acts, saying: "Y'all don't choose how to pay for eggs. Why should it be different for music?"[60] Sonic Youth bassist Kim Gordon said the release "seemed really community-oriented, but it wasn't catered towards their musician brothers and sisters, who don't sell as many records [as Radiohead]. It makes anybody else look bad for not offer their music for whatsoever."[61] Guardian journalist Volition Hodgkinson argued that Radiohead had made it impossible for less successful musicians to make a living from their music.[62] The release surprised record executives; an unidentified executive at a major European characterization told Time: "This feels like withal some other decease knell. If the best ring in the world doesn't want a part of us, I'chiliad non sure what's left for this business."[56]

U2 manager Paul McGuinness said that 60 to lxx per centum of Radiohead fans had pirated the anthology, and saw this as an indication that Radiohead's strategy had failed.[63] Nevertheless, media measurement company BigChampagne concluded that the music industry should not think of piracy every bit lost sales, every bit Radiohead had shown that even releasing music gratuitous had not deterred it.[64] Based on this report, Wired ended that "by 'losing' the battle for the email addresses of those who downloaded their anthology via bit torrent, [Radiohead] really won the overall war for the public's attention – no like shooting fish in a barrel feat, these days".[64] In a retrospective article, NME argued that Radiohead had demonstrated that the all-time response to piracy was to explore alternative ways to connect with fans, offering content at dissimilar price points: "The pay-what-you-want aspect isn't something to be followed slavishly ... Information technology's the willingness to try it and the connectedness with fans that made it successful that should be an inspiration."[65]

Responding to criticisms, Jonny Greenwood said Radiohead were responding to the culture 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 ancillary questions and forgetting most the central urge of people to share and enjoy music. And there's always going to exist a style of finding money or livings to be made out of it."[33] Yorke told the BBC: "Nosotros take 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 direct with their fans ... Not only do they get in the style, just they take all the cash."[45]

Radiohead's managers defended the release as "a solution for Radiohead, non the industry", and doubted "it would work the aforementioned way [for Radiohead] e'er once more".[66] Radiohead accept non used the pay-what-yous-want arrangement 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 and Google: "They have to keep commodifying things to proceed the share cost up, but in doing so they have made all content, including music and newspapers, worthless, in social club to make 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'due south recording contract with EMI ended in 2003, Radiohead recorded In Rainbows without a record label. Soon earlier work began, Yorke told Time: "I like the people at our record visitor, simply the time is at hand when y'all have to enquire why anyone needs one. And, yes, information technology probably would give united states some perverse pleasance to say 'fuck you lot' to this decomposable business model."[56]

In Baronial 2007, every bit Radiohead were finishing In Rainbows, EMI was acquired by the individual equity business firm Terra Firma for US$6.4 billion (£4.seven 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'southward team informed them of their self-release plan a day earlier the album was announced.[51] O'Brien later said he had not realised the band'due south importance to EMI: "That probably sounds really naive. But at that place weren't people going, 'Yous're then of import.' We were merely one of the bands on their roster."[70] Easily believed that Radiohead would but have canceled their self-release plan with a "really big" offer.[51] According to Eamonn Forde, writer of The Concluding Days of EMI, Radiohead had lost religion in EMI and idea the new ownership would exist a "bloodbath".[51] O'Brien said Radiohead initially believed a deal with EMI could have been fabricated, and said: "It was really sorry to leave all the people [we'd worked with] ... But Terra Firma don't empathize the music manufacture."[33]

An EMI spokesperson stated that Radiohead had demanded "an boggling amount of money" for a new contract.[71] Yorke and Radiohead's direction released statements denying that they had asked for a large accelerate, just had instead wanted control over their back catalogue,[71] [72] which Hands had refused.[51] According 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 have taken them to court. The idea that we were after so much money was stretching the truth to breaking point. That was his PR company conference against u.s.a. and I'll tell you what, it fucking ruined my Christmas."[51]

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

Promotion [edit]

Following the album release, Radiohead broadcast ii webcasts from their Oxfordshire studio: "Thumbs Down" in November 2007 and "Scotch Mist" on New Year's Eve. In the United states, "Scotch Mist" was also broadcast on Current TV. The webcasts featured performances of In Rainbows songs, covers of songs by New Gild and the Smiths,[75] poesy, and videos created with comedian Adam Buxton and filmmaker Garth Jennings.[76] [77] Colin Greenwood described the webcasts equally spontaneous and liberating: "It was so absurd because we didn't have to get through three weeks of video commissioning and receiving dodgy scripts set 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 money of $10,000 each to four semifinalists, who created videos for "15 Footstep", "Weird Fishes", "Reckoner" and "Videotape".[79] Radiohead held remix competitions for "Nude" and "Reckoner", 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 Identify", was released in Jan 2008,[81] followed past "Nude" on 31 March.[82] They were accompanied by music videos directed by Buxton and Jennings.[83] [84] "Nude" debuted at number 37 on the Billboard Hot 100; additional by sales of the remix stems, it was the beginning Radiohead song to enter the nautical chart since "High and Dry" (1995) and their start US top-40 vocal since their debut single "Creep" (1992).[85] [86] In July, Radiohead released a video for "House of Cards", made with lidar applied science instead of cameras.[87] In February 2009, Yorke and Jonny Greenwood performed "15 Footstep" with the University of Southern California Marching Band at the televised 51st Annual Grammy Awards.[88]

Tour [edit]

On 16 Jan 2008, a surprise Radiohead functioning at the London record shop Crude Trade East was relocated to a nearby club afterward law raised rubber concerns.[89] Radiohead toured N America, Europe, South America and Japan from May 2008 until March 2009.[ninety] [91] To make up one's mind how they could reduce carbon emissions for the tour, Radiohead deputed the environmental group All-time Pes Forward.[92] Based on the findings, Radiohead played in amphitheatres in city centres to reduce reliance on flights for attendees,[93] and used a carbon-neutral "wood" of LEDs on stage.[94] Radiohead recorded a live video, In Rainbows — From the Basement, circulate on VH1 in May 2008.[95]

Sales [edit]

Digital [edit]

In early October 2007, a Radiohead spokesperson reported that most downloaders paid "a normal retail price" for the digital version of In Rainbows, and that about fans had pre-ordered the limited edition.[96] Citing a source close to the band, Gigwise reported that In Rainbows had sold 1.ii million digital copies before its retail release;[97] this was dismissed by Radiohead'south co-manager Bryce Border equally "exaggerated".[98]

According to enquiry released in Nov 2007 by the market research house Comscore, downloaders paid an average of $ii.26 per download globally, and 62% of downloaders paid nothing.[99] Of those who paid, the average paid was $six globally, with 12% paying between $8 and $12, effectually the typical price of an album on iTunes.[99] Radiohead dismissed the report as "wholly inaccurate",[100] but said that the results had been good.[33] In December 2007, Yorke said that Radiohead had made more than money from digital sales of In Rainbows than the digital sales of all previous Radiohead albums combined.[29]

In Oct 2008, one year after the release, Warner Chappell reported that although most people paid nothing for the download, prerelease sales for In Rainbows had been more profitable than the total sales of Hail to the Thief and that the express 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 virtually secretive terms, basically for free, and still be wildly successful, even every bit industry profits continued to plummet."[103]

According to the media measurement visitor BigChampagne, on the day of release, around 400,000 copies of In Rainbows were pirated via torrent. It had been shared two.3 million times by iii November 2007. At its elevation, it was shared many times more the 2nd-most shared album released in the same period. Some piracy came from users driven to torrents after the official website overloaded.[64]

Retail [edit]

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 Nautical chart.[104] On the calendar week of its retail release, In Rainbows reached number i on the United kingdom Albums Chart,[105] with get-go-calendar week sales of 44,602 copies.[106] In the US, later on some record stores broke street engagement agreements, it entered the Billboard 200 at number 156. However, in the first week of official release, information technology became the 10th independently distributed anthology to reach number one on the Billboard 200,[107] selling 122,000 copies.[108] In October 2008, Warner Chappell reported that In Rainbows had sold three million copies worldwide, including one.75 million physical sales,[109] since its retail release.[110] It was the bestselling vinyl album of 2008.[111]
