Thom Yorke: ''King of Limbs' alienated people'

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has revealed that the band's most recent album, 'King Of Limbs' was 'on its own planet', admitting that the release alienated a lot of people.

The album, released in February 2011 was an unusual listen - even by Radiohead's stadards. It charted at No.7 in the UK - the band's lowest placing since their 1993 debut, 'Pablo Honey'. Now, a reflective Yorke has revealed his pride in the record - but admits it was a tricky listen for fans.

"It was amazing just to put the record out like that. But then it didn’t feel like it really existed... But that was the consequence of what we chose to do. You can either get upset about it, or say, “well, that’s not good enough," Yorke tells Rolling Stone magazine.

"I can see why it’s alienated people. I didn’t realise it was on its own planet."

Radiohead perform three live dates in the UK in October 2012 as part of their European tour. For more information, visit Gigwise Gig Tickets.
