Radiohead sent out news over a month ago that they're latest album, King of Limbs, would be coming out as a 'newspaper album.' Well, they're coming out with a newspaper called The Universal Sigh on March 29, but it's not the newspaper associated directly with their album. Here's some officious info from the newspaper's website:

To commemorate this momentous occasion, Radiohead have produced a newspaper which will be given away, free, gratis, without cost to the consumer by accredited vendors from a multitude of locations WORLDWIDE! In the USA, in the Netherlands, in Belgium, Poland, Germany, Austria, in the Czech Republic, in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Ireland, France, Italy, Slovakia, Finland, Greece, Norway, Lithuania, Estonia, Russia, Australia, Latvia, Iceland, Romania, New Zealand, the UK and a load of other places around the globe, our dedicated teams of newspaper delivery people will be handing out copies of THE UNIVERSAL SIGH to anyone who wants one, until we run out!

There won't be a performance, and this is a one-time event, so make sure you grab a copy THAT DAY!
