More new album details from the band

Posted on August 4th, 2002.

Radiohead are to set to return to the studio in September in Los Angeles after the remainder of their Spanish/Portugese tour. Jonny Greenwood said: “We’re going to LA to record to the new album. No, it’s not very ‘Radiohead’, but we recorded the last album in a cold northern Europe location because we thought it was us. It wasn’t. So we’ll try this.” Joking about it being a West Coast album in the style of The Eagles or Lynyrd Skynyrd Jonny said:”Well Phil’s singing, so it could work out that way,”

He said that the tour of Europe had been great fun but that headlining Benicassim was different: “It’s not our gig so we won’t be playing a load of new songs just one or two.”

In the end Radiohead played exactly that; ‘Punch Up At A Wedding’ in the middle of the set and set opener for all the shows on the tour so far ‘There, There’ as an encore.

Speaking backstage afterwards, Colin Greenwood told NME.COM: “I’m glad people enjoyed it but the sound wasn’t that good. I’m looking forward to the last three dates. ”

He also enthused about Primal Scream’s Mani: “He’s a fantastic bass player.” [read the sroty in full at nme.com]
