After the surprise release of the new song "Burn the Witch" earlier this week, Radiohead further delighted fans Friday with the announcement of a release date for their new album and a new Paul Thomas Anderson-directed music video titled "Daydreaming."

The release of "Daydreaming" came with an announcement that the band's long-awaited ninth studio album will be released digitally on Sunday, May 8th at 2:00 PM ET.

Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood composed the soundtracks for three of Anderson's last three feature films, making the director something of a natural fit for the band.
