I have a friend who knows Paul Epworth and said they’ve been secretly writing/recording on and off, might be BS though so don’t downvote me since I never claimed to know for sure

Paul Epworth c’est le producteur de blue morpho et le groupe a répété dans son église/studio en 2024.

Ce truc d’enregistrement occasionnel fait avouer que je l’entends depuis 2021…
Une idée me vient: est ce qu’Ed a parlé d’autre chose qu’un album? Ça fait hyper longtemps qu’ils parlent d’abandonner le format au profit de titres stand alone ou d’Ep…depuis 2009 je crois.

Un album travaillé sur l'espace de deux ans, ça s'est déjà vu chez eux ? Je me souviens que pour AMSP, on avait déjà des signaux très clairs à l'été 2015.

Amsp il a été enregistré à saint remy en juillet août 2015 mais ils bossaient dessus en 2014 déjà. Quelqu’un sur etc avait posté l’ensemble de leurs déclarations à l’époque.

2014 c’était surement plus dédié à la composition, faire des démos, etc et Saint Remy les « vraies » sessions.
Les premières photos c’était à saint remy.

C’est pas complètement impossible qu’ils en soient à cette phase 2014 en ce moment mais les interviews d’Ed collent pas (du tout)

apart from what I've shared with you lot in the last few days, now that radiohead is finally touring I can say: they were looking at tour possibilities as far back as august 2013, when they were planning a late 2014 tour which obviously didn't take place. this is something that means they have scrapped the whole thing and made new plans at some point during the recording sessions. this means there is probably a great deal of material they've ditched from recording until then (this includes the third man records sessions) so we're in for something seriously well-thought and not just a throwaway selection of songs. I do have an email from my job's hq back in july 2015 mentioning the month of release (which I'm now inclined to believe it's the physical one and not the download) and this comes straight from their booking agent, with whom the company has a great relationship. this is why I'm so convinced of the release month, even if I heard about this in july. this is a major band securing their tour dates way in advance... don't get surprised they registered their new company in october as they were probably very aware of a deadline they set for themselves just to be able to tour this year.

First time i post here... but been reading all the post since a long time now...
Sorry my english is not that well...
But here is what i have learned yesterday about LP9...
I have a friend working for different music company. he is not a big fan of Radiohead but when i asked him about that new album coming out he told me : "we know it's coming in the beginning of May". He's also in charge of the coming of the next Mark Pritchard album so he add : "this is why we want to bring out the new single with Thom Yorke this week so that it don't get drowned by the next Radiohead". (Pritchard'Lp will be out in may as well).
So Italo is right... again...
I'm as pissed as you are... waiting for this for so long and just learning it won't be out before at least 6-7 weeks...

Donc ils avaient commencé en septembre 2014 pile à la sortie de TMB et ils ont fini 11 mois plus tard tout en combinant la tournée de Thom, l’enregistrement de junun, le disque de phil…

La seule différence c’est qu’on serait passé d’une quasi totale transparence à du mytho complet.

Je rejette pas totalement cette possibilité s’ils souhaitent bosser sans pression et sans faire d’ombre à Thom et Ed pour l’instant.

[climbatize]

Je me souviens de la vraie première "preuve" du LP9 en septembre 2014 avec la photo de Thom et Jonny en train de bidouiller des câbles en studio!

Ecxact ! Je me suis planté dans la date.

[Staircase]

On ne peut pas totalement écarter l'idée d'un mensonge d'Ed.
Pour plein de raison, ça me semble possible que le groupe ait envie de travailler dans une tranquillité à peu près totale, d'autant qu'après dix ans les attentes sont au plus haut.

[hunting android]

Ou ils sont pas sûrs du tout que ça aboutisse.

Quelqu’un a fait remonter un post d’il y a plus d’un an sur etc d’un membre qui prétendait savoir que le groupe avait bien bossé sur de nouvelles choses mais qu’ils ne savaient « pas quoi en faire ». Italo a décrit le mzmbre en question comme quelqu’un qui parlait occasionnellement avec un membre du management du groupe. Donc pas un parfait affabulateur.

C’est un bruit de couloir très récurrent que j’entends depuis le début de la décennie.

Ça me semble contradictoire avec l’idée qu’ils n’ont rien joué de neuf en 2025, pas même en soundcheck ceci dit.

Ça ajouté aux déclarations d’Ed, la piste du rien du tout l’emporte à ce stade.

Mais je n’exclus pas totalement qu’ils soient assis sur deux, trois ou quatre titres et qu’ils se tâtent entre repartir sur un album, sortir un ep ou des stand alone single. Ou abandonner parce que ça n’est pas assez bien.

Ça ferait sens avec le mastering en 2025 notamment.

Il y a une déclaration d’Ed qui à mon sens trahit un mensonge «  on en a même pas parlé » (de la possibilité de refaire un disque)
Je ne peux pas croire une seconde que personne, phil, colin notamment ou un membre du management n’ait pas évoqué le sujet  lors d’une réunion de travail. Quitte à ce que l’idée soit rejetée.

[Finch]

Je vais au Japon tous les ans donc ce sera parfait. Par contre acheter des billets au Japon est une autre affaire avec souvent des systèmes de loterie ou passage par les Seven Eleven/Lawson obligatoires. 
Bref si quelqu’un sera chaud pour organiser ça, je serai on.

Ça dépendra de la date (si c’est compatible avec des vacances agréables au japon en l’occurence) mais si oui et si j’arrive à avoir un billet, j’irai!

[dawnchorus]

Ce qui est certain c’est que Thom bombarde l’algorithme sur les réseaux sociaux tout l’été.
Ça sent le lancement pour la rentrée

[hunting android]

Oui probablement. Le tease de stanley c’est supposé se conclure fin août de mémoire, ça m’étonnerait pas que ce soit lié.

EDIT: 29 juillet, Stanley parlait du fait que la boite serait ouverte dans une ville européenne dans un mois. fin de semaine prochaine, on devrait en savoir plus 

ça+ l'annonce de la tournée de Radiohead, l'actualité s'annonce riche!

(s'ils pouvaient faire une annonce à Rock en Seine, du genre Futile Endeavours+ PARIS 2027 pour se faire pardonner d'avoir annulé leur date avec The Smile... parce qu'on a eu ni la tournée Wall of eyes, ni Radiohead, Ni Everything tour pour l'instant...)

[climbatize]

Futile était peut-être bien pour le LP10, mais Ed n’a pas aimé la direction artistique de l’album et a voulu imposer un peu plus sa vision qu’auparavant (l’aventure en solo lui a fait pousser des ailes), si bien que c’est totalement au point mort. D’où ses propos hyper remontés et catégoriques quand à un avenir discographique de RH.

[hunting android]

La société a été crée en février 2026. En général ils
font ça en fin de process quand la commercialisation est relativement proche.

Si ça n’est pas pour un live ou une compilation d’inédites, il reste la possibilité d’un truc enregistré avant les interviews d’Ed qui ne mentirait donc pas en affirmant qu’il ne sait pas s’ils enregistreront à nouveau (après le lp10)

J’y crois pas trop et je reste sur le scénario « vieilles inédites/ faux nouvel album » mais sait on jamais.

Quelque chose se trame (Thom qui parle de projets divers menés de front, les artworks/teasing de stanley, le retour non seulement scénique mais également le gros travail de communication pour donner un nouvel élan au groupe qui n’en avait pas besoin pour vendre des billets ainsi que les 1000000 bruits de couloir concordants), reste à savoir quoi.
