The new Radiohead album is “up in the air”, according to the band’s Colin Greenwood.
Speaking to Drowned In Sound, Greenwood spoke of how the band’s individual commitments to various side projects is stunting the release of a successor to 2011’s The King of Limbs.
Greenwood said: “It’s all up in the air at the minute. Thom (Yorke)’s just come back from touring Atoms For Peace and he’s having some quiet time. I’m sorry to be vague but we’re all just taking it easy at the moment. Just enjoying being at home and hanging out really. But at the same time, the vibe is very much Oxford and all good! It’s like that.”
He continued: “I wish I could say we were going to start work and put something out then spend 12 months on the road touring but we’re just enjoying being at home right now.
“We had the best time when spent the last two years touring The King Of Limbs. We all really enjoyed that. It was a really positive time. We definitely want to do it all again but we’ve just got to give it some time for the dust to settle. What I’m trying to say is everyone’s very happy and positive and looking forward to the next adventure.”
Yorke’s “super band” Atoms for Peace has received rave reviews for both their live performances and their debut album, Amok. Meanwhile, Greenwood has been named the Official Ambassador for Independent Venue Week, which will celebrate the UK’s smaller venues via a series of live gigs from January 28th – February 2nd.
