Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke and producer Nigel Godrich have revealed an image of a mysterious white vinyl - sparking speculation about what the release may be.
Over the last couple of months, Yorke has been unveiling enigmatic artwork via Twitter - that seems to be by himself and long-time artist and collaborator Stanley Donwood. This, coupled with Radiohead posting up steams of unheard music samples on their Polyfauna mobile phone app, has kept fans on tenterhooks in recent weeks.
Now, Yorke has caused further excitement by tweeing a link to his Tumblr page, containing the following image:
Seeing as Radiohead only re-entered the studio this month, it seems unlikely that it would be a new release from them - however the artwork on the disc matches up with that recently revealed by Yorke, and there appears to be sleeve artwork on the deck in keeping with that of The Eraser and Amok. Fans are now speculating that a new solo or Atoms For Peace redcord could be due imminently.

Earlier this year, Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood confirmed that the band are due to begin rehearsing and recording again in September. The band are currently on a break after touring and promoting 2011 album The King Of Limbs, with members pursuing various solo projects.
Speaking to Mary Anne Hobbs on BBC 6 Music though, Greenwood confirmed that the break is nearing its end. "We're going to start up in September," he revealed. "Playing, rehearsing and recording and see how it's sounding."
When not performing with Radiohead, Greenwood has written the scores for films such as There Will Be Blood, We Need To Talk About Kevin and The Master. His most recent score is for the upcoming dark comedy crime film Inherent Vice, which stars Joaquin Phoenix.
Radiohead's eighth studio album, The King Of Limbs, was released in 2011 and was nominated for five Grammies.
