While fans are excitingly waiting for Radiohead to finally release its new album, the English band's guitarist Johnny Greenwood candidly gave out hints as to what songs should be expected in their new record.
In his interview with Dutch website 3voor12, Greenwood revealed that he is already working on the new tracks with the band's frontmant, Thom Yorke.
Greenwood teased fans on what song to expect on their new Radiohead album. He revealed that the band is working on a new song titled "Lift," which actually is an old track they've done back in 1996.
"This afternoon, Thom and I will work on a song we started yesterday, and see what it will lead to," he explained.
"What people don't know is that there's a very old song on each album, like 'Nude' on In Rainbows. We never found the right arrangement for that, until then. 'Lift' is just like that. When the idea is right, it stays right. It doesn't really matter in which form."
However, Greenwood confessed that working with the band again after being on break for a long time did not come without challenges.
Despite working including old songs for their new album, he previously assured fans in an interview with Christian Post that they are constantly woking on new methods.
"We've certainly changed our method again," Greenwood said. "It's too involved. We're kind of limiting ourselves; working on limits. So we'll see what happens. It's like we're trying to use very old and very new technology to see what happens."
When it comes to release date, the English rockband is expected to make the official launch in the near future. Paste Magazine noted that has pulled out their songs from music streaming apps including Spotify, Rdio and Deezer and to allow Apple Music to exclusively release their songs.
Nigel Godrich, the band's producer and collaborator explained the reason behind the decision.
"The reason is that new artists get paid fuck all with this model. It's an equation that just doesn't work," Godrich said. "The music industry is being taken over by the back door and if we don't try and make it fair for new music producers and artists then the art will suffer."
Consequence of Sound added that the release date to Radiohead's new album will most likely happen this year.
