the_gloaming09 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Radiohead heading back to the studio Radiohead have revealed they are working on new material and planning a summer tour. Guitarist Ed O'Brien told Newsbeat the Oxford band would be hitting the studio soon. "We are working on new material," he explained. "We'll be doing some more recording. It's business as usual. "We've sort of finished the bulk of [in Rainbows] touring," he added. "We will be doing a little bit of touring in the summer, watch this space!" O'Brien was speaking at the launch of the Featured Artists' Coalition (FAC) lobby group in London on Wednesday. He is joined on FAC's committee by artists including Blur's Dave Rowntree, Kate Nash and Billy Bragg. "At the moment a lot of rights and revenue streams are being carved up in this new era," he said, "and I think it's really important that we're in there fighting our corner. "Radiohead signed very traditional record company contracts, and it was exactly what we wanted to do at the time and there's no bitterness, but I think there's an inherent feeling that they're just a bit old school." 'Spokespeople for fans' O'Brien explained that one of FAC's main aims is to support younger artists coming through. "There are some bigger names here but the whole essence of what we're trying to do is really largely aimed at, and for the benefit of, the younger musician, the people coming into the music industry for the first time." He explained that the coalition also hopes to speak for fans - maybe even illegal file sharers. "I hope that what the Featured Artists' Coalition will [say to fans is], 'We understand you, we're not trying to criminalise you.' "I think if we get our act together, we've possibly got a role to play in that as well, being spokespeople for bands and then, leading on naturally from that, for fans as well." http://news.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/hi/music/newsid_7939000/7939214.stm ------------------------ Radiohead hitting the studio soon?

MrMagpie Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 That would be rather awesome...but if it would push the album release back by a few months then they can just skip out on the touring :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMagpie Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Mad Magazine Pokes Fun at Radiohead Radiohead have never struck us as a particularly silly band, but that was before we laid eyes on the cover of this month's Mexican Mad magazine (Atease via Stereogum). The illustration (left) imagines what it would look like if someone decapitated Thom Yorke, took his brains out and then filled his head with a transistor radio. If you think about it, the cover is grotesque and a possible threat; if you don't think about it, it's just pretty dumb. The choice is yours. The Mad treatment is in honor of the band's upcoming Mexico City dates (with special guests Kraftwerk) March 15 and 16-- it's the first time Radiohead have played the country since 1994, according to Atease. Inside the issue are a few "humorous" Thom Yorke drawings that somehow manage to offend gay people, perverts, blind people, Care Bears, and Charles M. Schultz all at once. Atease also has a scan of the cartoons. In other (slightly more characteristic) Radiohead news, the band is taking part in the first meeting of the Featured Artists Coalition (FAC) today, the Times says. As previously reported, the group-- featuring famous artists like Blur and Robbie Williams along with the dude from Kajagoogoo-- is fighting for fair digital rights and royalties in the current iTunes/YouTube age. The meeting is being held at a secret London location where participants will definitely not huddle around a laptop and laugh at [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEkB-d_oeYU]your "Fake Plastic Trees" YouTube cover[/ame]. http://pitchfork.com/news/34813-mad-magazine-pokes-fun-at-radiohead/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
