RADIOHEAD THINGS ABOUT BREAKING UP
Radiohead singer Thom Yorke told Pitchfork Media in an interview last week that the band thinks about breaking up often. When asked whether there were moments during the last two years whether the group thought about calling it a day, Yorke replied, "Yeah, we have them all the time. It'd be deeply unhealthy if it weren't like that. And that's not just instigated by me. Sometimes people just have enough -- they just can't deal with it anymore."
Yorke said that part of the problem was that the band didn't give itself a deadline to make the follow-up to its last album, 2003's Hail To The Thief. He explained, "We didn't have a structure. We didn't have a purpose...There's no reason for the band to get together, nobody who sat there and said, you know, 'We're doing this.' We spent a lot of time f***ing about in the studio and not going anywhere because...we didn't have to (finish a record)."
Radiohead did recently complete its first tour of North America and Europe in more than two years, and has been back at work on its next album. Yorke released his first solo effort, called The Eraser, last month. Radiohead does not have a record label at the moment, having finished out its contract with EMI on Hail To The Thief.
