Radiohead has been wiping its online presence this past week, presumably with the intention of drumming up press coverage in anticipation of its next album release. The album will more than likely be called Dawn Chorus, assuming Radiohead does what they always do and named the holding companies that own the rights to the album the same as the album title.

The band’s manager recently revealed that the album will drop sometime this summer in an interview at London’s Wanstead Tap, specifically some time in June. However, the fact Radiohead deleted every single tweet, Facebook post and even its Google+ content is leading some to speculate that the album’s release was moved up.
The band is scheduled to play their first live shows since 2012 as well. So far, Radiohead is headlining three festivals in Europe over the summer: Primavera Sound in Barcelona, Openair St. Gallen in Switzerland and Nos Alive in Lisbon, Portugal.
The last piece of music Radiohead released officially was titled “Spectre , ” originally intended to be the theme song of the similarly titled 24th James Bond movie. The producers of the film ended up choosing up Sam Smith’s rendition instead.
