Radiohead share first song from new album

'Burn The Witch' is depicted by claymation

After slowly disappearing from the internet over the weekend, Radiohead have unveiled the music video and first track, 'Burn The Witch, from their ninth album.

The video is directed by Chris Hopewell and is a stop-motion clay animation, with a particular scene of a woman, supposedly the witch, tied to a tree and surrounded by men with swords.

Previously, some fans received enigmatic flyers that read: "Sing a song of sixpence that goes/Burn the Witch/We know where you live". Now it's all starting to make sense.

Earlier this year, the group also announced they're going back on tour, including three shows at London's Roundhouse on May 26, 27 and 28. The tour will see the group's first live shows since 2012.
