Thom Yorke could be set to play this year's Coachella Festival with his unnamed supergroup.

The singer is already confirmed to play the Californian event in April with the likes of Gorillaz, Jay-Z and Muse, but with Yorke billed by organisers as 'Thom Yorke????', it is now rumoured that he could be playing with his all-star backing band at the event.

He played last year's Latitude Festival in the UK solo.

Now, EW.com are reporting that Yorke's representatives have said he intends to perform with the backing band he assembled in Los Angeles last year.

The group, which features Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea, REM collaborator Joey Waronker, Brazilian multi-instrumentalist Mauro Refosco, and long-term producer Nigel Godrich, played three shows in October.

Meanwhile, Yorke has hinted that his unnamed band are going to "do something hopefully in April", hinting at the possibility of a new solo recording.

Co-hosting the Gilles Peterson show on Radio 1 earlier today (January 20), the Radiohead man explained that while the band would be used for "just some more gigs" he did not rule out the possibility that it could "lead somewhere [else] as well".

The trailer for Mars Volta frontman Omar Rodriguez-Lopez's film debut, entitled "The Sentimental Engine Slayer" is now online. Rodriguez-Lopez wrote, directed, and stars in the film, and John Frusciante is listed as the executive producer.

The Sentimental Engine Slayer will make it's debut at the Rotterdam Film Festival next month.

Radiohead's Thom Yorke has crashed the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, and you can see a video of him talking at the event below.

The conference, which is being held to discuss issues surrounding global climate change, is not open to the public, yet Yorke obtained a press pass to gain entry.

"I'm here as a press person," he explains on the video when asked what he's doing at the event. "Do you imagine they'd let me in otherwise? See how long it lasts before I get kicked out."

Last year Yorke spearheaded the Big Ask campaign, which saw a law passed that requires the UK to cut its emissions by 80% by 2050.

The music of guitarist Johnny Marr (The Smiths, The Cribs, Modest Mouse’s We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank) will soon be making its theatrical debut.

As MovieScore Magazine reports, Marr is set to score The Big Bang, which follows an L.A. private detective hired to find a stripper who is not only missing, but has never been seen before. In his search through New Mexico, the detective encounters a trail of bodies, a Russian boxer, and a billionaire perfecting his nuclear-physics version of The Big Bang, according to Variety.

The film is the third directorial effort for Tony Krantz, coming years after he produced another story of lost identities, Mulholland Drive. Antonio Banderas stars alongside William Fichtner (Entourage, The Dark Knight, Prison Break), Delroy Lindo (Up, Domino), Sam Elliott (Up in the Air) and Snoop Dogg, who is simply cast as a man named Puss. Huh.

In October, Marr also agreed to team up with Ian Brown to create music for a friend’s television drama, revolving around ticket touts, T-shirt grafters and pickpockets.

Mastodon guitarists Brent Hinds and Bill Kelliher have posted a four-part video explaining how to play 'Divinations,' from their latest record Crack The Skye.

I've been listening to a lot of happy music this month. That's a trend I don't want to end just yet, and it's a trend that Wolf Gang perpetuates with excellent single "The King And All Of His Men."

Think the glitzy pop of The Killers without the self-seriousness, or MGMT minus the heavy beats (maybe even a little bit of Empire of the Sun?), "King And All Of His Men" rocks out with pounding piano chords, swirling synths, and epic "oohs." The sound is unique, catchy, and just BIG.

This is full, expansive, music, building towards an ending complete with tribal drums, hand-claps, choral harmonies, and layers and layers of sound. "King" will surely be filling arenas, and should be filling your iPod headphones for the rest of the day, if not the year.

A Los Angeles county judge has ruled that the former members of Sublime may not perform under the well-known name of their old group.Former band members Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh attempted to perform as Sublime at the Cypress Hill Smokeout Festival on October 24, and the group was later slapped with an injunction for illegal use of a trademark by the estate of deceased frontman Bradley Nowell.

After a preliminary hearing last Tuesday, the judge ruled in favor of the Nowell estate, giving them full rights of refusal over the name.

"Prior to his untimely passing, both Bud and Eric acknowledged that Brad Nowell was the sole owner of the name Sublime," a Nowell family representative posted on MySpace. "It was Brad's expressed intention that no one use the name Sublime in any group that did not include him, and Brad even registered the trademark 'Sublime' under his own name."

The Nowell family is happy with the judge's decision.

"We believe this will help protect and preserve Brad's musical legacy," they said in a statement.

Radiohead's world domination continues. According to a story in the Liverpool Daily Post, a race horse named Radiohead will compete in this weekend's Breeders' Cup Juvenile race at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California.

Really.

No word if the steed jams out to that Thom Yorke song "Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses" or if he's somehow offended by it.

In a strange twist, a horse named Wilko won the very same race five years ago. And there's apparently a similarity between the two gallopers, according to horse agent (!) Andy Smith, who said, "[Radiohead] reminds me of Wilko-- a feisty, well-built sort who should do well out in America."

Ian Brown has been arrested for allegedly attacking his wife.

The former The Stone Roses man was arrested on suspicion of assault yesterday (November 2) after his neighbours alerted the police to a disturbance at the couple's west London home.

"A 46-year-old man was arrested at the address and taken to a police station," Scotland Yard confirmed to The Mirror.

As police investigated the disturbance it is claimed Brown's wife Fabiola Quiroz told officers he had attacked her.

Brown was taken into custody, but was later freed on bail until next month.
