Record collectors and Radiohead fans, pay attention, because you are definitely going to be interested in this. The band have announced a special triple album reissue to mark the 21st anniversary of Kid A and Amnesiac, and it includes previously unreleased tracks.
Titled KID A MNESIA, the release will feature both Kid A and Amnesiac albums in their entirety, alongside a newly put-together third record, which is called Kid Amnesiae. This will be made up of unearthed material from the Kid A and Amnesiac sessions which never made it onto the two LPs when they were released in October 2000 and May 2001 respectively.
Radiohead teased the announcement on their Twitter page yesterday (7th September) with a clip showing someone trying to tape together Kid A and Amnesiac CDs. The video is soundtracked by Packt Like Sardines In a Crushd Tin Box, which is the opening track to Amnesiac.
Along with alternate versions and elements of Kid A and Amnesiac album tracks and B-Sides, Kid Amnesiae features the never-before-heard If You Say the Word (available now as a digital single) and a previously unreleased studio recording of Follow Me Around.
KID A MNESIA will be released on November 5th in a limited edition 3 LP set on cream vinyl with a 36-page hardback art book. It will also be available on a limited and numbered edition cassette with a 36-page booklet, as well as a limited edition red vinyl 3 LP set, and a black vinyl 3 LP set. Alternatively, you can get it on a 3 CD set, as well as on digital formats.
The day before the album drops, two art books by Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood cataloguing the visual works created during the Kid A / Amnesiac era will also published.
Here is the never previously heard Radiohead song, If You Say the Word, which will be included in the new triple-album.
