Thom Yorke's psychological exhaustion

Thom is tired

Although the Radioheads have been known for being pioneers in the system of releasing records without warning, unexpectedly, Thom Yorke has claimed to be bored of releasing records by surprise. Let's remember that, in 2007, "In Rainbows" was released without anyone expecting it.

On planning for Radiohead, Yorke says that there will be more performances in 2017, after a break, after the last concert of this year, which will be at the Austin City Limits Festival, in Texas, in October.

In the words of Thom Yorke himself, he feels "too old" to continue with surprise launch strategies. When asked about releasing his solo album  'Tomorrow's Modern Boxes', which premiered on bit torrent services, Yorke concludes: “Enough of that for now. I've had enough of that. No more fuss. I'm getting too old for that. Sometimes it is frustrating. A lot of energy is spent trying to do it differently and avoid monsters. "

But Yorke's activity does not stop, despite everything. He has declared to be composing new music with Kieran Hebden, Burial and Four Tet . The trio released a single novelty in 2011, and Yorke said: “I'm hoping to get something new out, soon. I did another song, but the voice was too dark, maybe ”.

Recall that, recently, the lead vocalist of Radiohead stated that eHe was very surprised by the success of the band's 9th album, "A Moom Shaped Pool", which went on the market last May. On this success he declared “We really expected the opposite reaction. I adore the band, but didn't expect anyone else to do it. My favorite subject is daydreaming, which is an example of when we do things well. "

This five-year wait from penultimate to last job It has been the longest in the group's history. Bassist Colin Greenwood pointed out that Thom was "amazing" during the recordings, which went a bit bad at the beginning, but in the end he was able to get everyone to recover.
