Radiohead<\/a> have unveiled a new merchandise line for their long-awaited European comeback tour.<\/p>\n The Thom Yorke<\/a>-led band are preparing to play their first shows in over seven years, with four nights each in Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen and Berlin to take place over the next two months<\/a>. The tour kicks off tonight (Tuesday November 4) with an opening night in the Spanish capital.<\/p>\n Ahead of doors opening, the band have revealed the new run of merchandise that will be on offer to fans.<\/p>\n \u201cWhether you\u2019re going or not, the Europe 2025 merchandise range is now available to purchase from the W.A.S.T.E. store at the link in profile,\u201d the band told fans, revealing the new designs. They also said those in Madrid can browse the range outside the Movistar Arena from 4pm today, and that it will be open to fans without a ticket, and remain open until Saturday (November 8).<\/p>\n A variety of hoodies, t-shirts, hats, bottle openers, badges, water bottles, and posters are all available now on the online W.A.S.T.E store<\/a>, and draw inspiration from the band\u2019s albums and longtime collaborations with Stanley Donwood<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n On offer is a black tour t-shirt and a hoodie that have a list of European tour dates on the back, and make nods to \u2018The Bear\u2019 artwork associated with the \u2018Kid A\u2019 album. They also make a nod to \u2018The Minotaur\u2019 design linked to \u2018Amnesiac\u2019. \u2018The Bear\u2019 is also showcased on a red striped jumper, as well as on a design called \u2018Fantasy Off White T-shirt\u2019, while both artworks are showcased on a collection of patches.<\/p>\n The 2011 album \u2018The King Of Limbs\u2019 is referenced in both a tour poster and the newspaper zine made available with the album at the time, while another t-shirt design makes a nod to \u2018In Rainbows\u2019 track \u201815 Step\u2019. There is also a t-shirt that shows a telephone alongside the words: \u201cNever ever, ever never pick it up\u201d \u2013 a line which was also referenced in their 2021 \u2018KID A MNESIA\u2019 exhibition<\/a>.<\/p>\n Visit here<\/a> to browse the full online collection.<\/p>\n The band confirmed a recent interview with The Times<\/a><\/em> that their upcoming shows will all be played in the round<\/a> and taking a \u201cbusking approach\u201d to the setlist<\/a> each night having rehearsed over 65 songs from their back catalog.<\/p>\n These will also be the first Radiohead shows since the end of their \u2018A Moon Shaped Pool\u2019 world tour in 2018. All dates are listed as sold-out.<\/p>\n Radiohead have also not released any new music since \u2018A Moon Shaped Pool\u2019<\/a> in 2016. The band also recently spoke out about the chances of new material emerging soon<\/a>.\u00a0\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d said\u00a0 Jonny Greenwood<\/a>, while Yorke added: \u201cWe haven\u2019t thought past the tour. I\u2019m just stunned we got this far.\u201d<\/p>\n Elsewhere in that feature, the band members each reflected on the controversies stemming from their stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict<\/a>, with the frontman saying the \u201clow-level Arthur Miller witch-hunt\u201d on the subject \u201cwakes him up at night\u201d.<\/p>\n This stems back to 2017, when Radiohead were criticised for playing a show in Tel Aviv in 2017.<\/a> Last year, Yorke got into a clash with a protester at a solo show in Melbourne in 2024<\/a>. Jonny Greenwood has also been criticised for collaborating with<\/a> and playing live with Israeli musician Dudu Tassa<\/a>.<\/p>\n In the Times<\/em> interview, Yorke said he would \u201cabsolutely not\u201d play in Israel with the band again, but Greenwood \u201cpolitely disagreed\u201d with him, calling the backlash \u201cthe embodiment of the left\u201d. \u201cThe left look for traitors, the right for converts and it\u2019s depressing that we are the closest they can get,\u201d the guitarist shared.<\/p>\n Due to their stance, the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement have argued that the band\u2019s \u201ccomplicit silence\u201d and support of Israeli performers during the \u201cgenocide against Palestinians in Gaza\u201d<\/a> should lead to a boycott of their upcoming shows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/blockquote>\n
