Kind of a neat way to promote their album, doing a full live YouTube gig

I remember Radiohead did something similar around the time of In Rainbows, too. It was called Scotch Mist and featured live performances of the album songs recorded in their studio and even included "thumbs-down" versions of outtakes they were not happy with.

A description from Wikipedia:
On New Year's Eve 2007, Current TV streamed a webcast of "Scotch Mist", a private concert filmed at Radiohead's Oxford studios; it not only featured the band performing In Rainbows's songs, but also included poetry and footage created or selected by the band.

They also included a tiny piece of the master tape from their album in each cd booklet, which I think is outstanding. I thought their new album sounded pretty great, as well.

Now, lyrically, lines like "shame, shame, double-shame, come again some other day" caused me to violently belch black fire in my mouth. But the music? Quite good. 8/10

I have not heard either of the new albums by Radiohead or the Foo Fighters, so Christian, which band are you talking about?

Foo Fighters (sorry, I got distracted by the thread title and forgot Radiohead were mentioned).

That new tune they have called "Rope" was pretty sharp... want to pick up the album for further inspection.

That was one I liked a lot too. Harmonies sound really cool in it
