Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke had some strong words for fans who are eagerly waiting for the band to reunite. In a recent interview, Yorke expressed that he really doesn't care about fans' desires for a 90s band reunion. He has been focusing on his solo projects lately and is set to kick off his solo tour in Christchurch, New Zealand on Wednesday.
Despite the speculation and rumors about a possible Radiohead reunion tour, Yorke made it clear that he is not aware of any plans and frankly, doesn't give a flying f*** about it. He believes that both he and the band have earned the right to pursue their individual projects without having to explain themselves to anyone. Yorke appreciates the fans' support but feels that they should not dictate the band's actions based on their nostalgia for the 90s.
The interview also comes amidst renewed rumors of a Radiohead tour, with bassist Colin Greenwood revealing that the band had rehearsed together a few months ago to play their old songs. However, this was short-lived as Radiohead keyboardist Jonny Greenwood fell seriously ill and had to cancel the European leg of his tour with his side project, The Smile. The band's statement mentioned that Greenwood would soon return home after receiving treatment from intensive care.
Radiohead was one of the biggest bands of the 90s, and their popularity has continued to this day. Yorke and Greenwood have been busy with their solo projects, while other band members have also been involved in different musical endeavors. Yorke is currently touring with The Smile, alongside fellow Radiohead member, Tom Skinner from Sons of Kemet. However, due to Greenwood's illness, the European leg of the tour had to be canceled.
Despite their separate projects, Yorke reassured fans that the band is still in touch and constantly discussing plans for the future. He mentioned that they just need to make a solid plan and find some time to get together, something he admits he is not very good at. But he also joked that he has been busy "dicking around" in the studio, which has made it difficult to schedule anything.
In the end, Yorke reminded fans that the band members are all busy making music, just not as Radiohead. They are still in touch and working towards finding time to reunite and create new music together. Fans can rest assured that the band is not gone for good, and there may be a chance for a reunion in the future. In the meantime, Yorke and the rest of the band members are grateful for the fans' support and are excited to see what the future holds.
