Three broken pairs during one year. These earphones (well, previous model, but as far as I heard not much has changed) are way too fragile for my not-so-much sophisticated needs.
What needs, you may ask? Since solid few hours a week I spend sitting in a bus surrounded by old, sleepy and boring people, I gotta kill the boredom somehow. Music (combined with Instapaper, oh yes!) does just well. After that earbuds simply land in my pocket and suffer in there for an entire day. You may say every human on the Earth planet listens to music that frequent. Apple ones couldn’t handle that.
So when during one day at school one of the headphones simply stopped working I decided that this shit got way too far and bought something different. Worth mentioning, that way earlier pause/next song button refused to do stuff too. Limited budget sucks, so I had to stick with, still low-end, Creative’s EP-630.
So far so good.

I’ve been trying to wrap up and finish that post for last couple of weeks; but there has always been a weird lack of words to describe what happened on 25th August this year. Not really happy with that post, but well… at least it exists.
My fascination with Radiohead began at the end of 2007, when they released In Rainbows – I was already into computers a lot, so releasing an album in the way they did couldn’t pass through me unnoticed. As with everything they did, those sounds didn’t hit me after first listening. Altough I remember as today how I loved Jigsaw Falling Into Place and as this one was followed by others, just as epic songs.

After recent few mentions from Radiohead about not publishing any more albums so much stuff happened for fans of this band. People were thinking about Radiohead’s plans for keeping to rock the industry, release plans…
Then a mysterious song leaked up on a popular message board for fans. By whom? I’m certainly sure that by Radiohead itself to build suspense over this new thing. Hell, it worked.
Fans gathering clues, analizing lyrics and everything. Then, when wallofice.com redirected to official band’s store, everyone was certain about new EP coming on Monday. So was I. Well, we were wrong.
