New edition out now:

The magazine contains five (FIVE!) glorious, exclusive, brand-new interviews with the members of Radiohead by THE WORD's Andrew Harrison.

It's accompanied by particularly fine set of documentary pictures by new-to-WORD photographer Shamil Tanna. The shoot provides a peek into the band's private world as they rehearse at the Hospital Studios, London, where they recorded much of In Rainbows.
