Good news for Radiohead fans this morning: guitarist Jonny Greenwood says that the band hope to tour their forthcoming ninth album next year.
Although some reports have suggested that the album is completed, that's not the case, as Greenwood clarified on Twitter yesterday. He recently did an interview with a Russian radio station and said his comments were 'mistranslated', and that although the band had recorded lots of material, it was not yet an album.
@coslive nice mistranslation going on....what I actually said: lots has been recorded, and we're about to go through it all....

@coslive ...to see if it's any good. And we HOPE to tour next year: no plans confirmed yet. Sorry for the over enthusiastic translator....:/

Even frontman Thom Yorke joined in:
@coslive no IT ain't finished take responsibility for your writing and check your facts occasionally .. alright Jonny?ðŸ˜'@JnnyG

In any case, the band are well underway on the follow-up to 2011's 'The King of Limbs', which is good news - and the prospect of seeing Radiohead live in the near future is never a bad thing.
