Radiohead hit the studio for new album

Colin Greenwood speaks about follow-up to 'In Rainbows'

Radiohead's Colin Greenwood has told NME.COM the Oxford band have begun recording their new album with producer Nigel Godrich.

The bassist revealed that the band went into the studio to start work on the follow-up to 2007's 'In Rainbows' last week (beginning May 11)

"We've just started work [in the studio] last week," he told NME.COM. "It's really cool and everything is sounding great. It's early days and it is a bit like having a scrapbook at the moment because everything is up in the air, but it's good to be back in the studio."

He was quick to praise Godrich, who has produced every Radiohead album since 1997's 'OK Computer'.

"He's brilliant," Greenwood gushed. "He can make everything sound like it's working together rather than us trying to kill each other."

Greenwood was speaking at Brighton's Great Escape festival, which took place over the weekend (May 13-16).

Great news, although I have no idea what it would sound like after the change of In Rainbows

Didn't you miss the "S" from the start of the the second word and then just leave out the rest of the headline. Would just about sum it up in two words.

Can't wait, Radiohead are one of those bands that keep on shaking things up instead of playing the same track on a loop e.g. Kaiser Chiefs and Twisted Wheel.

Goonerinblack didn't you make a mistake with your user name? Surely the first 4 letters would suffice?

au contraire, I believe the insults hurled at both Radiohead and "GoonerinBlack" were of the highest comical quality, and clearly both authors thought long and hard about the jokes, possibly brainstorming many ideas and surely pulled more than few all-nighters!Radiohead are awesome.

As much as I like radiohead, them going into the studio isn't really seismic. It'll probably be a few years before they perfect the ambient sound and the drum loops. It's gonna be a long wait.
