Radiohead have announced details of their first tour since 2012. The quintet had already announced a series of festival appearances, but have now added a series of headlining shows.

Don’t get too excited, though – this isn’t a massive jaunt of 200 shows in 20 countries. In fact, the group are playing only in Amsterdam, Paris, London, New York, Los Angeles and Mexico City, between May and October, in addition to festivals in Lyon, Barcelona, Reykjavik, St Gallen, Lisbon, Montreal, Osaka, Tokyo and Berlin.

The London dates consists of three appearances at the Roundhouse on 26, 27 and 28 May. Tickets for all the shows go on sale on Friday 18 March at 9am.

Radiohead are believed to have a new album ready for imminent release. In January, fans discovered the group had set up a new company, which they have done before all their recent album releases. Over the Christmas holidays, the group put up their rejected theme song to the James Bond film Spectre.

20 May – Heineken Music Hall, Amsterdam
