Radiohead have formed a new legal entity, suggesting they may be planning significant activity in 2025.On Monday (March 10), the band established a limited liability partnership (LLP) with the name RHEUK25, something they have done in the past when they are about to announce a new album, tour or reissue.LLPs allow Radiohead to operate their business affairs independently, without relying on the framework of record labels and external companies.
No further information has been shared by the band about what the legal move could signify.The band’s last album was ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’, which was released in May 2016, just months after the band registered the Dawn Chorus LLP.
More recently, they did the same with the Spin With A Grin LLP, which came six months before the announcement of the ‘Kid A Mnesia’ reissue in 2021, and the Self Help Tapes LLP in 2022, ahead of announcing the debut album by The Smile.All five members of Radiohead – Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, Ed O’Brien and Philip Selway – are listed as officers in the RHEUK25 LLP.Radiohead have been operating independently since parting ways with EMI/Parlophone after 2003’s ‘Hail To The Thief’.
They founded Xurbia Xendless in 2007 before releasing ‘In Rainbows’ in the groundbreaking ‘pay what you want’ format via their website.
