The last time Radiohead toured Australia was in 2012, in support of the underrated eighth album The King of Limbs. Needless to say, fans have been stinging for a return ever since. We got a little taste when frontman Thom Yorke performed a series of career-spanning shows here in October 2024, but that\u2019s as close as we’ve come to seeing the legendary British rock band perform in more than a decade. <\/p>\n
It looks like the wait might almost be over. Postcards emblazoned with \u201cRadiohead 2027\u201d and a QR code linking back to the band\u2019s official merchandise website W.A.S.T.E<\/a> have been found at multiple locations in Melbourne<\/a>, including Readings in Carlton and Dutch Vinyl in Abbotsford. Now, there are reports on social media<\/a> of more postcards appearing in Sydney and Perth.\u00a0<\/p>\n While we\u2019ve yet to hear an official \u201cBoo\u201d from the Radiohead camp, the band has pulled stunts like this before. The five-piece reunited last year for the first time since 2018 with a limited run of shows in Europe and the UK. They announced those gigs via postcard<\/a> in a similarly enigmatic fashion.\u00a0<\/p>\n But there\u2019s even more to suggest an Australian tour next year. The band is tipped to play<\/a> upcoming Japanese music festival Summer Sonic (again, mysterious postcards) and guitarist Ed O\u2019Brien recently teased<\/a> a return to major touring in 2027, with Oceania as a contender.\u00a0<\/p>\n If they don\u2019t come through, well, it\u2019ll be a monumental Let Down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The last time Radiohead toured Australia was in 2012, in support of the underrated eighth album The King…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":86094,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[249,255,250,253,252,251,254,227,260,2553,248],"class_list":["post-86093","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-melbourne","tag-bars","tag-broadsheet","tag-cafes","tag-culture","tag-drink","tag-food","tag-guide","tag-lifestyle","tag-melbourne","tag-national","tag-restaurants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86093","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86093"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86093\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86094"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86093"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86093"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/australia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86093"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
