Yesterday, Thom Yorke took to Radiohead’s official website to announce the name of his latest project, Atoms for Peace, along with a handful of tour dates this April. The band, which was listed as Thom Yorke???? on the Coachella line-up, consists of Flea from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich,  Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco, both of whom worked on Yorke’s solo project, The Eraser.

Atoms for Peace will be joined by Flying Lotus for this five-city tour, which will include two dates at Roseland Ballroom in New York City. Thom Yorke will appear on the track “…And the World Laughs With You” on Flying Lotus’ upcoming album, Cosmogramma, which will be released on May 4th through Warp Records.

The tour will kick off at Roseland Ballroom on April 5th and will end at Coachella on April 18. Tickets for the New York shows will be available on Tuesday (March 2) through the W.A.S.T.E. website and on Friday (March 5) through Ticketmaster. See the full list of tour dates after the jump…

The best present this holiday season came from none other than the beat junkie Flying Lotus. He released a mixtape chronicling cosmic dubs and edits from the past ten years, blended perfectly by The Gaslamp Killer. Here are FlyLo’s words:

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone
as we’re approaching this new year, I felt it was time to let go of some things that have been gathering dust. Some old things, and some new things, I tried to pick out tracks that I know yall haven’t heard yet so there should be surprises around every turn.

can’t believe i’ve been making tracks for over 10 years now..That said, there’s so much to learn still.

I hope you all enjoy this mix. Thanks to the Gaslamp Killer for doing an incredible job on this.

Can’t wait for you all to hear my album ‘Cosmogramma’ coming out April 20th 2010 on Warp Records.

Enjoy
