Radiohead to Record New Album for 2010 Release

HANK ALTOGETHER:

This wasn't supposed to happen already, was it? Well, ateaseweb is telling us today that it appears Radiohead's gearing up to record a new album for a physical release next year. Yeah. So that whole, Thom Yorke in The Believer thing about not doing a whole album again...well, that appears to be shot to hell. Or at least a misunderstanding. Remember that movie "He's Just Not that into You." Yeah, this one's more like, "They Just Didn't Quote You (Properly)."

Quoth Ed O'Brien to NME:

“We were misquoted,” claimed O’Brien of Yorke’s comments, loudly adding, “WE WILL BE MAKING AN ALBUM!” Although he said the band hadn’t decided how it would be released, he said the album would come out on vinyl and CD whether it first arrived as a download or not.

“We love the artwork; that’s really important, the physicality,” he explanied. “And we all like vinyl. That’s not going to go away. I still like CDs as well. I got the Speech Debelle CD the other day – I nearly downloaded it from iTunes but I thought, ‘No. I want the physical thing.’”

We want the physical thing too, Ed.

In the meantime, you can listen to Thom's stuff with Flea & co here. Or, here's the latest Radiohead before they make the latest Radiohead.

Radiohead - "These Are My Twisted Words"
Radiohead - "Harry Patch (in Memory of)"
