Last night, Thom Yorke sent out the following message to Radiohead's W.A.S.T.E. fan club:

this is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that i have not told you about.
its called The Eraser.
nigel produced & arranged it .
i wrote and played it.
the elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished & i have been itching to do something like this for ages.
it was fun and quick to do.
inevitably it is more beats & electronics.
but its songs.
stanley did the cover.
yes its a record!
no its not a radiohead record.
as you know the band are now touring and writing new stuff and getting to a good space so i want no crap about me being a traitor or whatever splitting up blah blah...
this was all done with their blessing. and i don't wanna hear that word solo. doesnt sound right.
ok then thats that.

i think its out in july and im pretty certain XL are going to put it out.
love thom

This should do a nice job of holding us over until Radiohead's new album comes out.

What a bizarre year. While we're still waiting for another album to drop, we get a summer tour and a solo Thom album.

Just finish the damned LP already!

have you heard any bottlegs GibsonGirl, if so what do you think about the new songs?

I assume you're talking about Radiohead, not Thom solo? I've heard some, but I haven't been online all that much lately so there's probably new stuff I haven't heard yet. I've been impressed with what I've heard so far, though. Especially Arpeggi.
