Radiohead have been recording sessions for their next album with producer Nigel Godrich and a large string orchestra.
“Lovely session” ran the caption accompanying photos on Twitter over the weekend, which have since been deleted. Drummer Phil Selway had assured fans that work on the album would “become a full schedule” in September.
“We've got quite a busy autumn coming up,” Selway told Press Association. “We want to finish a record and that’s where we’re at. We’re just launching ourselves into it.”
Inevitably, the band members have been busy as solo artistes. Jonny Greenwood performed his There Will Be Blood score with the London Contemporary Orchestra as part of David Byrne’s Meltdown at the Southbank Centre on August 19.
Meanwhile, Thom Yorke has been performing material from his solo album, Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes. He is composing the music for a production of Harold Pinter's play Old Times which is due to open on Broadway this month. There are also ongoing rumours about a Radiohead James Bond soundtrack .
