Radiohead’s 2007 album In Rainbows is now available to stream on Spotify. The addition follows the news that the band’s new record, A Moon Shaped Pool, will come to the streaming service on June 17th; it was already available on Apple Music, Tidal, and Google Play Music upon its release just over a month ago.

Radiohead’s reluctant treatment of Spotify has presumably been down to the existence of the service’s free tier, which would be a little ironic considering the unorthodox circumstances of In Rainbows’ 2007 release. Radiohead infamously made the album available online first with a pay-what-you-want pricing model, meaning that anyone could download it legally for free.
In Rainbows is, if you’re wondering, my second favorite Radiohead album — just behind Kid A, just ahead of OK Computer. You can listen to it below.
