Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood says the band will get together this summer with a view to recording their ninth studio album.

Greenwood, speaking to Nashville Cream, had said in the summer of 2013 that he was keen for the band to start work on a follow-up to 2011’s The King of Limbs.

While that has taken slightly longer than anticipated, Greenwood says they will get around to making new music.

“We’re meeting up at the end of summer,” he said. “But you know, we’re a slow-moving animal, always have been. I’ll guess we’ll decide then what we do next.”

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has been busy with side project Atoms For Peace and said last year that he hadn’t “a clue” about a new Radiohead album.

The last two Radiohead releases – 2007’s In Rainbows and The King of Limbs – have both been massive successes for the Oxford band.
