So? How many guys are going to be behind Radiohead ?

1) Cold Play

[British art-rock band Coldplay is releasing its new single on its Web site free of charge today, the latest band to experiment with new distribution models made possible by the Internet.]

2) Metallica

[…Metallica. The heavy-metal group is best known for its fast, aggressive rock – and the fact that, in 2000, it filed the lawsuit that ultimately helped kill Napster, the popular file-sharing system. But it looks like the band is getting ready to embrace the Internet and the new business models it makes possible. “We’ve been observing Radiohead and Trent Reznor,” Metallica’s Lars Ulrich tells Rolling Stone, a reference to two groups that sold music directly to fans over the Internet instead of relying on a music label to distribute the albums to stores. “We’ll be looking forward to everything in terms of possibilities with the Internet.]

3) Motley Crue

[Other rock stars are getting in on the act. Earlier this month, Motley Crue released its new single as a download for the video game Rock Star. ]
