Radiohead have already agreed that they'll start work on their ninth studio album this year.

Speaking to BBC Radio 6, Colin Greenwood said that although band members are currently busy with their other projects they have agreed on a start date for new album sessions.

"We're taking some time out whilst people are doing some other stuff, doing their own things, and the plan is to get back together [at the] end of the summer," he told the radio station.

His comments supports the the information given in a recent feature on Greenwood in the South African Mail & Guardian, where the paper stated that the band were on a nine-month break from Radiohead with plans to get together again in September.

In the meantime, Thom Yorke's side project Atoms For Peace release their first studio album later this month. Amok is set for release on February 25.

The band's last album, King Of Limbs, was released at the start of 2011 and was the band's first album since The Bends not to reach number one.

Earlier this year Thom Yorke dropped hints that seemed to suggest Radiohead might headline this year's Glastonbury festival.

While promoting Atoms For Peace on Zane Lowe's radio show the singer said that the band wouldn't be performing, but that parts of Atoms For Peace would be appearing.

Many took this to suggest that he and Nigel Godrich would be at the festival, but with Radiohead not Atoms For Peace.

But now Greenwood has said the band won't be reconvening until September that speculation seems to be in doubt.
