Radiohead to release their Basement session on DVD and Blu-ray
Radiohead have announced on their website that The King of Limbs: Live From The Basement, their session for Nigel Godrich's From the Basement series, is coming out on DVD and Blu-ray. The disc adds “Supercollider”, April's Record Store Day single with “The Butcher”, which was in neither the programme as shown on television in July nor the hour their label, XL, put on YouTube in August.
The rest is the programme as broadcast, the album's eight songs with “The Daily Mail” and “Staircase”, two songs not yet out on any record. Every copy comes with a download code for the performance and a 32-page hardback book of photographs by Steve Keros.
Pre-orders are open on the band's King of Limbs site, at £20 for the Blu-ray and £16 for the DVD, postage included. Ordered copies are promised before Christmas, and a download-only edition is due on iTunes on 19 December. The shops will have it in January, which the band warn will probably mean the end of the month.
The session was filmed at the BBC's Maida Vale Studios in London. Clive Deamer of Portishead plays a second drum kit beside Phil Selway, and seven brass players join the band for “The Daily Mail”.
