The most important thing in the world to Radiohead is that you know about their new jacket. The clothing article is constructed from recycled plastic bottles. Sounds like a nasty British rash waiting to happen. And for only 45 euros.

Also buried in the w.a.s.t.e. e-mail update, are tiny news items such as upcoming festival dates for the band and the fact that they are currently recording in the studio. But why care about that boring non-sense when we have a new Radiohead jacket? Right?

And not that we’re upset about Radiohead recording (we’re not), but isn’t it four years too early for Radiohead to back in the studio? We had expected them to score three films, make solo albums and break up a few times before they saw the mixing board again.

Regardless, the band is picking up some momentum with today’s announcement of upcoming festival dates and a digital department expansion for w.a.s.t.e Dot Com. Perhaps you can catch some of the new Radiohead material at their upcoming festival appearances:
