On Valentine's day, Radiohead announced they were releasing a surprise new album by the end of the week, but decided at the last minute to push the debut up a day, and made the album available for download on their website yesterday.

In a statement on their site, the band said "With everything ready on their website, the band decided to bring forward the release by a day as there was no need to wait until the planned date of Saturday Feb 19 to deliver the music."

The new video for their first single, "Lotus Flower" was released days ago directed by The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy director Garth Jennings.

You can download their new album, The King of Limbs here.
