Futureheads: Radiohead Are 'Hypocritical'
Rockers The Futureheads were disappointed when fellow British band Radiohead released their album IN RAINBOWS in stores - because it went against their revolutionary Internet download concept.
Radiohead made history last year (07) when they released their seventh LP online as a pay-what-you-want download.
But months later, they distributed the album to be sold in stores for a set price - a move The Futureheads strongly disagreed with, reports Gigwise.com.
The band's frontman Barry Hyde says, "They are in a league of their own. But what disappointed us was that they released it physically after. That was kind of hypocritical."
