The thing to remember is that this is not a "solo" album er lol I dont know what Thom ment by that really. I think he just wanted to put pressure on the point that this is not an album that is going to break radiohead up. This is something that has be rumored for along time. That rumor backs up the claim that he has been working on it as a side project for a while.

We received this message from W.A.S.T.E. tonight. It confirms the rumors that Thom has made an album:
this is just a note to say that something has been kicking around in the background that i have not told you about.
its called The Eraser.
nigel produced & arranged it .
i wrote and played it.
the elements have been kicking round now for a few years and needed to be finished & i have been itching to do something like this for ages.
it was fun and quick to do.
inevitably it is more beats & electronics.
but its songs.
stanley did the cover.
yes its a record!
no its not a radiohead record.
as you know the band are now touring and writing new stuff and getting to a good space so i want no crap about me being a traitor or whatever splitting up blah blah...
this was all done with their blessing. and i don't wanna hear that word solo. doesnt sound right.
ok then thats that.
i think its out in july and im pretty certain XL are going to put it out.
love thom
