News about Radiohead‘s forthcoming album, the follow-up to 2011’s The King of Limbs, continues to trickle out. In the first of a two-part podcast recorded for the Talkhouse, the band’s Philip Selway said progress has come “in fits and starts, but come September it just becomes quite a full schedule.” Previously, Jonny Greenwood had said the band was “working in periods” after taking a long break. You can listen to the podcast above.

During the conversation, which is a chat with Ghostpoet (aka Obaro Ejimiwe), Selway talked about the band’s evolving creative process. “For so long we kind of played exclusively with each other and that takes you so far, so I suppose from album to album you try to push yourself beyond your comfort zone.”

Selway continued, “We kind of change record to record, try and change the underlying approach to making music.” He also referred to the band’s “short attention span.”

Additionally, Selway said that hearing new Radiohead material and “wanting to be a part of that” is one of the things that motivates him to drum. “I suppose I’m very aware of my limitations as a drummer,” he said. “In one way that’s been a good thing for me, because it’s made me develop a very—if you’re into Radiohead you can recognize how I drum—but at the same time there’s an insecurity that comes with it, and always wanting to get beyond it.”

Around the forty-minute mark, Selway also reminisces about the beginning of Radiohead’s career, how the band members started playing together in school and the anti-climax of signing their first record deal. He talks about the band’s first tour of the United States in 1993, following the success of “Creep”. “There was an expectation of where you’re supposed to be as a band and, you know, I don’t think our playing was quite there at the time,” he said. He recalls feeling intimidated by other bands that they encountered on the tour. “I suppose going through music has been kind of characterized for me by, as I was saying earlier, feeling quite fraudulent at points. That was probably one of the most fraudulent-feeling periods.”
