How to make a radiohead album

What you are seeing here is a blackboard full of song titles for Radiohead's seventh (!) studio album. We're a bit late to the party, but Thom & co. have been keeping a diary of the recording sessions on the official website - which is about as impenetrable as your average Radiohead lyric / maximum security detention centre.

Some of the mooted songs look very Radiohead: Skirting on the Surface; A Pig's Ear; House of Cards. A little more intriguing are Morning Mi Lord and Big Cheese. It's a little pointless to guess what the album will sound like from a few tentative song titles, but we'd say this will be Radiohead's jazz fusion gospel album, complete with brass section, welsh male close-harmony choir and bongos.

Unfortunately, it won't be finished til next year, so in the meantime why not download the band's fantastic headline set from Glastonbury 2003? If you can't download torrents, you can get some slightly ropey MP3s of last year's gigs in Portugal from this site.
