here's a copy & paste just for you:

For me, you can't get much better of a one-two punch in the music world than Radiohead's "The Bends" and "OK Computer." Two of the best rock albums of the past twenty years and they're from the same band in the same five year span. Which one is better? That's a matter of much debate and a few years ago it would've been "OK Computer" hands down, but now I'm not so sure. It all depends on how I feel on any given day. I haven't been in love with all the stuff since then but even their worst stuff is better than the best Coldplay (don't tell Gwyneth I said that). That's why I'm excited by this news. A scooper writes in and says that Radiohead could be providing their first ever film score work for the upcoming Rick Linklater flick A SCANNER DARKLY. Here's what our scoopster has to say:
I have a friend who is [redacted]. I thought you might be interested in this scoop.
The movie is doing very well in test screenings, but the #1 complaint audiences have is with the score. So I can only tell you this anonymously, but the producers have approached RADIOHEAD about doing a new score for the film and it looks like everything is going to go through. So in addition to an awesome animated Phillip K. Dick film, we will have a brand new Radiohead score to look forward to. as far as I know, this is the first time Radiohead has ever done a score for the film. While this is still a "rumor" at this time, I would give it a 99% accuracy rating at this point.
Also, I've seen the new trailer for the film and it is absolutely outstanding. It should be hitting the web any time now.
I need to remain anonymous, but you can call me ...Miguel Garzia.
Sounds pretty groovy, let's hope they can work it all out. I'm not a big fan of that type of animation but very interested to see how they pull this one off. Thanks for the scoop Miguel.
