\n\tBritish music has had such a banner year in 2025, that Radiohead\u2019s<\/a> return has flown a touch under the radar. With Olivia Dean<\/a>, Yungblud<\/a>, Lola Young <\/a>and RAYE<\/a> all conquering the Billboard<\/em> charts in the U.S., and Oasis<\/a> putting on the biggest tour<\/a> of the year, the return<\/a> of the art-rock fivepiece after an seven-year absence feels low-key in comparison. There is no new music to plug, simply a run of shows in major European cities, and an unpredictable setlist \u2013 this is as understated as an arena-headlining band could ever dream to be.<\/p>\n

\n\tThat said, 2025 has still been notable for the group. Earlier this year they reassessed<\/a> their 2003 album Hail to The Thief<\/em> and worked with the Royal Shakespeare Company for a new production<\/a> of Hamlet<\/em>. Elsewhere \u201cLet Down,\u201d an album track from their 1997 opus OK Computer<\/em> went viral<\/a> and landed on the Billboard Hot 100<\/a> for the first time. Their Spotify monthly listener count now tops 44m users, higher than other British rockers such as Oasis, The Rolling Stones and even The Beatles.<\/p>\n

\n\tAll this comes despite a period of relative inactivity. The band\u2019s last LP A Moon Shaped Pool<\/em> was released in 2016 and the group completed touring for it in 2018. Yorke told The Times<\/a><\/em> in an exclusive interview that touring was paused for Radiohead because \u201cthe wheels came off a bit,\u201d but the fire has still burned. Since their hiatus, each member has embarked on solo projects, most prominently garage-rock side project The Smile featuring frontman Thon Yorke and guitarist Jonny Greenwood. <\/p>\n

\n\tLast year, however, word of a comeback started to spread. Bassist Colin Greenwood let slip that the group had reconvened to rehearse their back catalogue, and rumours of a wider tour soon followed. A limited run of tour dates was announced in September, featuring 20 shows in Madrid, Spain; Bologna, Italy; London, England; Copenhagen, Denmark; and Berlin, Germany. 70 songs were touted as being in contention (the band have played 43 different tracks thus far) and the group announced they would be playing in the round for the first time.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe shows thus far have been a triumph, a rare chance for the band to look back at their discography and perform live without the necessity of promoting new music. This is a comeback that has proved as mysterious and thrilling as their studio material thus far. As the tour hit the halfway mark, Billboard <\/em>was on hand to see the band\u2019s first U.K. show in eight years. These were the best moments.<\/p>\n
