 LONDON, UK (Radiohead Fans Website) - Radiohead has become the latest victim of internet leakers. The band's entire new album, "Hail to the Thief," appeared online over the weekend, over two months before its scheduled June 10th release. "We're not really angry," guitarist Johnny Greenwood wrote on the Radiohead message board. "It's a little earlier than we'd expected, but there it is." Their last two albums, "Kid A" and "Amnesiac," were also available on the Internet several weeks before their official releases. Meanwhile, the band has lined up a short tour of the U.K. and Ireland in May followed by a series of headlining gigs at several European festivals in June and July. Plans are in the works for a North American tour in late summer or early fall.
