Radiohead isn't known for making a song and dance about their releases -- unless you count the band's latest video for "Lotus Flower" (embedded above), which went viral due to Thom Yorke's booty-shaking -- so it's hardly surprising that the group quietly put its discography up for sale as digital sheet music without telling anybody.
[partner id="wireduk"]That means that the search is over for hard-core Radiohead fans who have previously relied on iffy websites or old-fashioned paper songbooks to learn how to play the band's music themselves. Available on radiohead.com through the band's online merchandise shop, w.a.s.t.e, the sheet music is humbly categorized in the "ephemera" section, below "badge," "keyring" and "recycled," no less.
There are 124 pieces of sheet music available on the site, each piece dedicated to just one song, which you can browse in alphabetical, rather than album or release, order. Tracks from the eight albums Radiohead has released since 1993, including this year's album, The King of Limbs (which isn't available in paper format), are up for sale as digital sheet music.
Some pieces have guitar tab versions as well as piano/voice/guitar scores -- including, fittingly, Pablo Honey album track "Anyone Can Play Guitar."
A capella sheet music is also available with just the voice arrangement for track "High and Dry." Radiohead's offering will undoubtedly get fans parting with their cash; however, at 2.25 pounds ($3.65) per song (guitar tab versions will set you back $2 and voice $1.60), there are cheaper ways to become the next Thom Yorke.
