English rock veterans Radiohead have revealed that they are in talks to schedule a full-scale tour to promote their eighth studio album ‘The King of Limbs’.
‘The King of Limbs’ came out last February, but the band have barely ventured on stage, playing just two gigs since the #3 album hit the shelves. But after their dazzling display at this year’s Glastonbury, the band were left with a thirst to perform live a lot more often than they do – a thirst which looks set to be quenched very soon.
“It seemed to be an appropriate way of airing that material for the first time,” said drummer Phil Selway. “It felt an exciting thing to do, to just go out [at Glastonbury] and jump in at the deep end.” Did the performance leave them wanting more live dates? “Absolutely, and that's what we're talking about at the moment.”
“It felt exciting doing that. It felt as though we had something different to offer again musically on top of what we've done in the past, and it just felt like a new lease of life in what we were doing. So yes, we'd like to see where that takes us.”
As of yet, talks are in early stages, so no tours or dates have been confirmed yet – but my guess is that they will tour in August, after a story we ran earlier this month suggests. Stay in the loop about Radiohead with Stereoboard.comNOTE FROM THE EDITOR
