Their new album won't be released until 2008 (and on what label remains an open question), but it looks like Radiohead aren’t done teasing us with details about their first LP since 2003’s Hail to the Thief. Two and a half months after their artwork depot Hodiau Direkton went on hiatus, a series of boxed faces with stick arms remerged on the site yesterday. For anyone who saw Zodiac, or just enjoys word games, it became obvious that these little boxes represented some form of cryptogram (for those outside the know, that’s a puzzle in which a symbol represents a letter of the alphabet). One RH fan on the fan site Ateaseweb.com diligently figured out that yesterday's message spelled out “Yes, WeAre Still Alive.” Kind of vague, but maybe it was Radiohead's way of making first contact with the fans. So today, to test our merit, Thom Yorke and the boys have posted another message (see above). This time, the code revealed lyrics to a song that will most likely feature on their new, still-untitled album. What does the cryptogram say? Figure it out yourself, or keep reading for the solution.
From the song “Bodysnatchers”:
