Movie Reviews of The Best of RadioheadMovie Review: ....no Idioteque? Summary: 2 Stars
I didn't even know this release was coming out until a week before the street date. Initially the excitement built up because I figured one of my favorite Radiohead songs, "Idioteque" would be on this DVD, for SURE.
Imagine my amazement when I checked the track listing and failed to find it on here. As others have mentioned the quality is lacking and nothing has been done to remaster the older material for the digital age. Sloppy work by the label and I guess I'll continue to wait for "Idioteque"...
Movie Review: Sad but true Summary: 1 Stars
When I saw that radiohead was releasing a "best of" album and DVD, I was shocked. Not that they don't have an incredible library of music and video to share because they do. It's just hard to believe because they have always been a band that innovates rather than duplicate. After giving fans a beautiful album, 'In Rainbows', and releasing it in a creative yet lucrative manner, I figured they were above the old money-maker greatest hits nonsense. I haven't looked into it much and maybe this is just something that their old label, Parlaphone, came up with to get back at them for their self-released album but I never expected to see the day.
Movie Review: Do Not Buy Summary: 1 Stars
Radioheads albums were meant to be hear in their entirety. Each album is unique and representative of the progression of a great band. Do not buy and album released by a sour former record label. Their only objective make up for the revenue they lost when radiohead decided to branch off and release In Rainbows on their own without a major record label. Don't fall into the trap of supporting a label who's interest is in money, not music.
Movie Review: Not as "nature" intended- Summary: 1 Stars
As mentioned previously, Radiohead is not a best-of band. The albums should be heard in their entirety, as even the ones you may not enjoy after the first couple listens will seem to grow on you and maybe even haunt you. This is an unauthorized compilation (well not band approved at least) with $$$ being the only objective by a disgruntled label.
