A few days after Radiohead cleared themselves from having a social media and online presence, two teaser video clips have surfaced on their Instagram page.
The first, arriving around 2 a.m. Tuesday morning East Coast time, features a stop-motion claymation bird and a few innocent chirps. The second, posted around 7 a.m., has the same aesthetics and depicts some sort of religious cult ritual -- a woman tied to a tree, furthering the "Burn The Witch" theme that first surfaced in a leaflet mailed to fans over the weekend -- and about 13 seconds of actual music.
The music, an upbeat, almost frantic string- and guitar-laden tune, would be the first bit of new music from the band's highly anticipated ninth studio album.
Watch the clips below.
