It's been over four years since Radiohead's last album 'The King of Limbs', with several of the band's members indulging in solo projects in recent times.

However, new photos taken in the recording studio suggest that Thom Yorke and co. are rolling up their sleeves for a return with their ninth album.

Composer Robert Ziegler posted three photos from the studio - which have since been deleted from his Twitter, but not before website Consequence of Sound grabbed them.

One of them includes the band working with a string orchestra, perhaps signaling a new direction for Radiohead. Or maybe the odds on Radiohead performing the theme for the next Bond film have just shortened significantly.

In any case, you can see the photos below:
