Thom Yorke To Release Solo LP
Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke will release his first solo album, The Eraser, July 11, the record's label, XL Recordings, announced on Friday. This shortish longplayer will feature nine new songs by Yorke. There currently isn't much else available on the album, and the new website for The Eraser features predicably cryptic artwork, a password field and not much else. Yorke sent a message to the W.A.S.T.E. Radiohead fanclub list that said the following about the new record: "this is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that i have not told you about. its called The Eraser. nigel [Godrich]produced & arranged it. i wrote and played it. the elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished & i have been itching to do something like this for ages. it was fun and quick to do. inevitably it is more beats & electronics. but its songs." Ah Radiohead, haters of Bush and capital letters.

The album was produced by Radiohead collaborator Godrich and features artwork by frequent Radiohead artist Stanley Donwood. So it'll probably look and sound just like a Radiohead album, right? Yorke's one step ahead of you: "yes its a record! no its not a radiohead record," he wrote. OK, so maybe it'll only sound sort of like a Radiohead record, meaning it'll probably sound like a Muse record.

Tracklist For The Eraser:
01. The Eraser
02. Analyse
03. The Clock
04. Black Swan
05. Skip Divided
06. Atoms For Peace
07. And It Rained All Night
08. Harrowdown Hill
09. Cymbal Rush
