Radiohead singer Thom Yorke has revealed further details and tracklistings of his first solo effort.
The debut offering from the iconic band's frontman, as we revealed earlier this month, is entitled 'The Eraser' and will be released this summer, on July 10th through XL Recordings.
In a mailout to fans he said: "This is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that I have not told you about. It's called The Eraser.
"Nigel (Godrich) produced and arranged it. I wrote and played it. The elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished and I have been itching to do something like this for ages."
"It was fun and quick to do. Inevitably it is more beats and electronics. But it's songs. ", he adds, "Yes it's a record! No it's not a Radiohead record. "
"As you know the band are now touring and writing new stuff and getting to a good space so I want no crap about me being a traitor or whatever splitting up blah blah... "
"This was all done with their blessing. And I don't wanna hear that word solo. Doesn't sound right."
The full tracklisting is:
The Eraser Analyse The Clock Black Swan Skip Divided Atoms For Peace And It Rained All Night Harrowdown Hill Cymbal Rush
