Radiohead album out possibly this year

In an interview on BBC 6 yesterday, Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien said the band are currently in the studio wrapping up album number eight, as At Ease points out. "It's genuinely exciting. It's very different from what we did last time. It's really nice to be doing this," he said, contrasting the sessions with the recording of In Rainbows, which he referred to as "a slog."

Talking about a timetable for the release, O'Brien offered the following: "Ideally, it would be great if it came out sometime this year. It has got to; I hope so. We're at the finishing line. When you're making a record, a film, write a book for ages and ages you think the finishing line is miles away. Now it feels it's in touching distance. But of course, it being a creative process, at the last bit also, you have bursts of energy, you achieve a lot of things in a small period of time and then you're nearly there. It might slow down. But yeah, hopefully it will be a matter of weeks."

best news all day

I just came

Radiohead are innovators of that style of alt rock where overt depressive whining is layered over accustic guitar along with an absolute refusal to do anything resembling "rocking out".

Music inspired and created for the Daria generation. Life is like soo meaningless. Let's go to Starbucks.


Gotta admit the Karma Police video seemed pretty profound when I was like 9 though.

who?

Get your razor blades ready.

Wasn't their last album free with a newspaper ? or was it downloadable from their website ?

You could download it I'm pretty sure. An absolutely amazing album

you could download it off their website for any price you want.

Also hands down the best live band in the world. Unmatched by any I've seen and I've been to a fuckload of concerts

Too depressing for my taste.

Foo Fighters have been the best band I've seen live.

Strange, I don't find them depressing at all. They've put out 2 of the top 5 or so albums of my lifetime IMO

Hey not slating them, Radiohead are just not my cup of tea.

Ok Computer top album of the 90's
Kid A top album of the 2000's

Radio stations blasting this horrific alternative rock into space is a great way to cause an alien race to justify the enourmous cost of interstellar travel and come here and obliterate us. Radiohead is a danger to humanity.

Does Radiohead even have a song besides Creep that gets played on the radio

No. Though I stopped listening to the radio a long time ago, so I don't know if any In Rainbows made the radio.

I haven't listened to the radio in years either but I'm highly doubting anything from In Rainbows was ever played. Now that I think about it though, I did hear Fake Plastic Trees a decent amount over the years

I think I get it. I think?

I would not go so far as to call them the greatest band of our generation but i definetly like me some Radiohead.

Who's better

For mainstream junk that tricks people into thinking it isn't some product - Tool.

wolf i'm interested into hearing what faggy bands you like.

Tool and Radiohead are actually my two favorite bands although I grow tired of Tool waiting 5 years to put out a new album

Black Sabbath. Slayer. Morbid Angel. Burzum. Pagan Altar. Judas Priest. Bach. Beethoven.
