Acclaimed rock band Radiohead has hinted at a possible reunion, sparking fans’ hopes of a tour or new music. The five members of Radiohead have established a new limited liability partnership under the name RHEUK25 LLP, according to the British Government’s Companies House agency. An LLP is a legal business entity that allows the band to work outside the typical framework of a record label.
Thom Yorke and company have created similar LLPs before announcing new tour dates or releasing music. Radiohead did the same thing before releasing its last album, “A Moon Shaped Pool,” in 2016, as well as “The King of Limbs,” “Kid A Mnesia,” and 2007’s “In Rainbows.”
There is also the possibility that the LLP could lead to an entirely different project.
Radiohead hints at big plans
Yorke took similar steps before releasing work with Atoms for Peace and The Smile, both of which include Radiohead bandmates Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Philip Selway, and Ed O’Brien. The band, which last toured in 2018, gave another clue to a possible reunion on Friday when it unearthed a rare VHS video of Yorke doing an acoustic performance in 1995. The 25-minute concert video release marks the 30th anniversary of “The Bends,” opening the door for an album reissue or celebration tour.
Radiohead is a Grammy-winning art rock band known for its experimental, alternative sound on songs like “Creep,” “Fake Plastic Trees,” “Karma Police,” “Paranoid Android,” and “The National Anthem.” The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019, and five of their albums have been named among Rolling Stone’s greatest albums of all time. As fans eagerly await more news, the formation of RHEUK25 LLP suggests that Radiohead might be gearing up for something big, whether it is new music, a tour, or another unique project.
