Watch Radiohead's dreamy new video directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.

After wiping their Internet presence and sending out spooky postcards, Radiohead have now returned with two music videos from their new album and a release date: According to the band’s website, it will be released digitally on Sunday May 8th at 7 pm BST.

First came the Wicker Man-inspired stop-motion video for “Burn The Witch” with ominous strings that conjure the “low-flying panic attack” in Thom Yorke’s lyrics:

Now, director Paul Thomas Anderson has delivered the six-minute cinematic clip for “Daydreaming” featuring Yorke looking befuddled as he walks through doorways into hospitals, laundromats, and out into a snowy cave. Its daydream logic feels more like a video from Michel Gondry, with lyrics like “Dreamers / They never learn / Beyond the point / Of no return.”

There’s no word yet on a physical release for the album, but Bull Moose Vinyl have shared the info that “Burn The Witch” will be released as a 7″ on May 16th. It will be exclusive to independent record stores and not sold online.

The 7″ b-side is Radiohead’s rejected theme to the James Bond film Spectre. Somewhere, Sam Smith is asking Radiowho?
