Radiohead New Album Release Preceded By Mysterious Codes On Official Website

by Dave Parrack on September 26th, 2007

The new Radiohead album has been recorded and mastered ready for release early next year, but more details than that have been hard to track down.

To give the fans some clues and to build the hype up ahead of the release, the British band have been leaving cryptic messages on their official website for the past week.

On the Hodiau Direkton part of the Dead Air Space website, visitors are treated to Radiohead hieroglyphs which contained messages such as “Yes we are still alive” and ” Blink your eyes one for yes two for no code code code”.

Well now, reportedly sooner than expected by Thom Yorke and co, the loyal fans have cracked the codes which may reveal the release date and some of the tracks included on the album.

Up On The Ladder Radiohead ClueThe sixth message the band left was “March, wax” which has lead fans to predict a March 2008 release for the as yet unnamed follow up to 2003 release Hail To The Thief.

The picture to the left is the latest clue, which is slightly less cryptic than the preceding ones. Seeing as the picture is titled Up On The Ladder it seems the track which was cut from Hail To The Thief has found favour again and will appear on this upcoming album.

The album has taken a full two years to write and record partly due to contract issues and partly with the constant touring the band have been doing. Now it looks as though we only have six months to wait to see what direction the Oxford band have gone in this time. I for one can’t wait.
