Radiohead return with new track Burn The Witch

Radiohead have released new track Burn The Witch online, along with an animated video.

The Burn The Witch clip by veteran music video director Chris Hopewell is probably best described as Trumpton meets The Wicker Man – watch the clip in the player above.

Burn The Witch hits the web following intense speculation over a possible ninth studio album from the band this year. Thom Yorke and co will play their first live shows since 2012 this summer, kicking off a short European tour later this month before headline slots at a host of European festivals including Primavera Sound in Barcelona. The band shared their proposed theme for James Bond's latest big-screen outing, Spectre, on Christmas Day 2015 – listen to the track in the player below.

Burn The Witch is released digitally on 4 May; Radiohead play the Roundhouse in London on 27, 28 & 29 May – read our profile of the band in our What's On section.
