news: radiohead to start working on new album in 2013

good news, folks. if you’re like me, then the king of limbs LP fell a little short for you. nothing against radiohead, i just wasn’t into it. luckily, seeing them live last year has crossed em off the bucket list and put me on a forever high about ‘em. according to colin greenwood interview with mail & guardian, the group will be back at working on the follow up to king of limbs in september. i’d expect a new album in 2014, hopefully.

photo credit: sasha ramos

Last Saturday marked the third stop for Radiohead, on a tour in support of their highly divisive eighth album that was less a bang and more a whimper upon its hushed release. A featherlight slight in comparison to their previous works, The King of Limbs was an icy, insular affair, submerged in the electronic rhythmic and percussive auras frontiered by Kid A. Expectations for the band’s live show was that of an ambient atmosphere, anchored by chilling synths and pre-programmed beats.
