Fans will be able to choose from a vinyl version of the album, a double CD or a boxed edition containing three heavyweight 180 gram black 12″ vinyl records, a hardcover book containing more than 30 artworks (many of which have never been seen before by anyone except the band) and full lyrics to all the tracks except the ones that haven’t really got any lyrics.
As well as that, there is a notebook containing 104 pages from Thom Yorke’s library of scrawled notes of the time, a sketchbook containing 48 pages of (Stanley) Donwood and Tchock’s (A Thom Yorke pseudonym) ‘preparatory work’ and a C90 cassette mix tape compiled by the band, taken from Ok Computer archives and demo tapes.
All of that, as well as downloadable versions of the 23 tracks, will be included.
The release of the album coincides with Radiohead’s appearance at Glastonbury on June 23.
