Radiohead Rips Off MySpace

Following in the footsteps of gunshot victim 50 Cent, dreary downers Radiohead are starting their own social networking website. The MySpace-like project will offer users a forum to share pictures, concert dates, and stories chronicling that one time they almost hooked up with a girl.

According to NME, the website, dubbed w.a.s.t.e., is written exclusively in lower case to maximize fifteen year old I-hate-my-parents-trendiness and features a cornucopia of videos from Nick Cave, Battles, and, naturally, Radiohead themselves. In a statement on the band’s official website, members have promised to solidify any kinks, which may arise in the future. No word on how many professional therapists it will take to curb the suicide-inducing effects of throwing thousands of sad bastards into the same room, but as the band has vowed to work out any mishaps, I’m sure they’ve put a contingency plan in place.
