'Splitting Up' |

has posted a message on the band's website saying the band are "splitting
up."

the band were washed up before admitting that he was only joking. Thank
God for that.
In a typically off-kilter post, Yorke joked:
"It is the end of our two week session. We're splitting up its all s***.
We're washed up. Finished. Only kidding.
"It was fun. Some of it has been really
great fun. And there were moments that stick in my head when I went 'TUNE!'
'TUNE!'" [see full story for more]- Click
