    Radiohead To Pen Deal With Starbucks Label?

    It’s being rumoured on the web today that Radiohead are in talks over a record deal with Hear Music - the company owned by Starbucks.

    The coffee giant offshoot already has Sir Paul McCartney on their roster and is apparently looking for Radiohead to bolster the label, claims the New York Daily News. 

    Buzznet is also reporting that members of the Starbucks label were spotted at a recording studio in London where Oxford’s finest are recording their eagerly anticipated seventh album.

    Yet another site is claiming that Thom Yorke and co. are hoping to pen a one album deal with the label.

    Radiohead have been without a permanent home since they left EMI/Parlophone three years ago.

    Starbucks has enjoyed success through selling records by the likes of Bob Dylan and Alanis Morissette in their stores.

    • For God’s sake, this isn’t true. It started out as a joke and now everyone’s like ’OMG RADIOHEAD & STARBUCZKZ???’ Radiohead hate Starbucks anyway.

    • I can foresee a Radiohead concept album about the debilitating effects of the Macchiato on the psyche.
