Radiohead fans were tricked a couple weeks ago after they gathered outside Zuccotti Park hoping for a concert. Posters on several social media websites had claimed that the band would gather on Wall Street to show support for the big business protesters. Though the band’s management had repeatedly denied the rumors, some of the band members were reported to have told the fans directly.

Radiohead is changing it up this year with the release of their new album. Not only was it released one day early, but it also comes with a price tag (gasp!).
Their new album, The King of Limbs, debuted first as a download on the band’s official website on Feb. 18. The cost ranges between $9 for an MP3 version and $14 for a higher-quality WAV version. The album will debut on store shelves on March 28 and is retailing for about the same prices as the digital version.
The King of Limbs is the follow-up to Radiohead’s 2007 album In Rainbows, which didn’t have any set price, but just asked for donations from fans.

Radiohead has already mastered how to make great music and sustain fan bases for years, but now they’ve branched out to create massive art projects around the world in support of 350 EARTH, the “world’s first global art project.”
Between Nov. 20-28, thousands of climate-conscious volunteers came together all over the world to create massive illustrations by using only their bodies and a little ingenuity. Click here to see some of the images.

Radiohead took a new direction with their latest film “Live in Praha” with the help of some of their fans at the concert.
The band played at the Výstavište Holešovice Exhibition Hall in Prague, Czech Republic, on Aug. 23, 2009, and with the help of more than 50 fans with Flip cameras they took the concert and made it into their latest project.
Radiohead’s website said that it was their mission to get as many angles of the concert as possible, so their editing team took the best clips and molded it into a 25-track video, including songs like “Everything in its Right Place,” “The Bends,” “A Wolf At The Door,” “Exit Music (For A Film),” “How To Disappear Completely,” “Pyramid Song” and “Idioteque.”

Radiohead has been relatively quiet since wrapping up their 2010 Spring tour throughout the U.S. in continued support of 2007’s In Rainbows. However, the band’s members are keeping busy in one way or another.
With frontman Thom York creating a new band (Atoms For Peace) earlier this year and Johnny Greenwood creating compositions for BBC, it’s only natural that drummer Philip Selway begins his own solo career.
Selway’s first solo album, Familial, is scheduled to debut in the U.S. on Aug. 31. The album features collaborations with Soul Coughing’s Sebastian Steinberg, Lisa Germano, Patrick Sansone, and Wilco’s Glenn Kotche.

The follow up to Radiohead’s 2007 “In Rainbows” is suspected to be released this year. In an interview with BBC 6 Music, guitarist Ed O’Brien discloses that the band is in the studio as we speak.
He reveals, ” We’re in the heart of the record… I’m really excited, I feel like this is the best record we ever made. It really is genuinely exciting. It’s very different from what we did last time.” (Read More…)

Thom Yorke delivered a new song at Radiohead’s benefit show for Haiti in January at The Fonda Theater in Los Angeles. The stripped down, hauntingly beautiful “Lotus Flower” was just the man and his guitar. Simple and powerful.
In addition to raising money for Haitian earthquake relief, Yorke and company raised fans’ hopes that a new release could soon be on the horizon. Hopes for Radiohead tickets would quickly follow.

Radiohead fans rejoice! There is serious speculation that Radiohead will issue a new digital EP as early as Monday, August 20th, as a track was leaked online over the weekend.
“These Are My Twisted Words” was posted on the message board of At Ease, a fan site. The source file includes “Wall of Ice,” which is assumed to be the name of the new EP.
The band has said in the past that they traditionally like to put 10 or 11 songs together, but it doesn’t feel as natural as it used to, so they might do smaller EPs with four or five songs.
They are no strangers to innovative music release methods – in 2007, they released “In Rainbows” digitally on a pay-what-you-want basis.

Radiohead is taking the summer off from touring to head back to the studio and start work on their eighth album.
Ideas are brewing and instruments are bubbling as the band decides what’s to come next creatively and otherwise after their last pioneering efforts on In Rainbows. What will remain the same, however, is their choice to continuing working with producer Nigel Godrich, who’s been with the band since 1997’s OK Computer.
Radiohead bassist Colin Greenwood told BBC News in a recent interview, “We’re at the stage where we’ve got the big Lego box out and we’ve tipped it out on the floor and we’re looking at all the bits and thinking, what next?”
