Happy Birthday Coz!
We would like to wish Colin Greenwood and very happy 37th birthday today!
Both Thom and Colin were interviewed by Radio 1’s Mark Radcliffe earlier today and talked about their progress so far with recording the new album. They’ve already recorded about 10 songs during their studio time in Los Angeles and are planning to head back there soon to resume recording.
Mark and Lard also nominated the band for the Halon Mens Wear LTD Music Awards but unfortunately, they didn’t win.

The two NME articles are now online here and here. Here’s the bit about the new album:
Colin talks of their plans for the new album. “We fly to LA at the end of August. (Long-time producer) Nigel Godrich rents a space there. We‘re going to spend two weeks working. The plan is like with OK Computer – we’ll have loads of songs we know and it’ll just be (mimes dumping a pile of books on the table) there!
He thinks about this: “It means we’ll be in America for September 11. Which will be interesting.
They hope to release the new LP, their sixth studio album, in March next year. There’s a discussion about the new songs. Since Thom didn’t introduce most of them on stage, people are curious about the titles. Have they really called a song “A Punch Up At A Wedding?” They have. Thom finds the fuss over the titles funny. “I should have handed out lyric sheets to the audience,” he says, which seems like such a terribly un-Radiohead thing to do (for a band who, as “artists”, hate the idea of giving anything away for fear it will spirit the “art” itself into nothingness) that we assume it’s a joke.

RH win award
Radiohead were awarded the top Live Gig by an International Act for their performance at Belfast’s Odyssey at this year’s Hot Press Irish Music Awards. Both Ed and Colin were there and accepted the award from Bono. Colin commented what a privilege it was to get the award from Bono after seeing U2 in Milton Keynes back in 1985.
