Thom Yorke is working on a new solo album.

Radiohead frontman and composer of the 2018 Suspira soundtrack is at work on another solo album. The album will be his third solo studio album in 12 years and it will be unlike anything we have heard from the musical genius before.

“I didn’t have the wish to make politically charged music, but everything I do goes that way anyways”, he revealed to Elmundo. “I’m trying to finish a record with Nigel [Godrich] and it’s going that way. It’s something that’s always there.”

In terms of the album’s sound, Yorke said: “It’s very electronic but different to anything I’ve done till now. The method has been the opposite of depending on computers. It’s a weird process by which we made a song in the studio, we break it after that, we rebuild it with a live mix and it comes out different again, and that’s what we record.”

He added: “We’ve improvised with a lot of sounds and effects. It has been a very weird way to make a record, which is very exciting.”
