'In the process of thinking of how to build arrangements for the Shakespeare Hamlet/Hail To The Thief theatre production, I asked to hear some archive live recordings of the songs,' said Yorke in a statement about the Royal Shakespeare Company's adaptation of the classic Shakespeare play cued to orchestrations by the band's singer that ran in Manchester in April and May and at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon in June of this year.
'I was shocked by the kind of energy behind the way we played. I barely recognised us, and it helped me find a way forward,' Yorke said. 'We decided to get these live recordings mixed and released (it would have been insane to keep them for ourselves). It has all been a very cathartic process. We very much hope you enjoy them.'
Available now to stream, fans can pre-order the one-off vinyl pressing in limited-edition red colorway from independent record stores or in black or cyan vinyl from the band's online store; the vinyl is due out on Oct. 31, click here to pre-order. The album, mixed by Ben Baptie and mastered by Matt Colton, features performances recorded in Amsterdam, Buenos Aires, Dublin and London between 2003 and 2009.
Hail to the Thief debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 album chart in June 2003 following a disruptive internet leak of the unfinished recordings two months before its initial release.

Morgan Wallen Joined by ‘Cowboy' Kid Rock for Walk-Out at Cleveland Stadium Show
Morgan Wallen brought out another surprise guest for the walk-out moment at the opening night of his I'm the Problem tour stop in Cleveland. The 32-year-old country star made a dramatic entrance during the first of two sold-out shows at Huntington Bank Stadium on Friday (Aug. 15), flanked by Kid Rock, 54, who wore a statement-making fur coat with the word 'Cowboy' emblazoned across the back. More from Billboard Every Celebrity Who's Walked Out With Morgan Wallen on His I'm the Problem Tour So Far (Updating) Morgan Wallen Is the Most Played Act on TouchTunes for the Second Straight Quarter Morgan Wallen Rules Billboard 200 for 10th Week With 'I'm the Problem' The moment was captured in a clip shared on Wallen's Instagram, soundtracked fittingly by Rock's 1999 anthem 'Cowboy.' In the video, the two artists greet each other backstage as Rock shows off his signature style — a wide-brimmed hat, black sunglasses, white tank top and blue jeans — before heading toward the stage together. The clip ends with Wallen embracing Rock and greeting the roaring Cleveland crowd. 'Cowboy, baby,' Wallen captioned the post. Wallen's walk-out moments have become a signature feature of his live shows, often featuring surprise celebrity guests like Drake, Travis Kelce, Troy Aikman, David Spade, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Earlier this year, Rock spoke about his connection to Wallen during an episode of Bill Maher's Club Random podcast. When asked about the song 'Still Somethin',' from his 2022 album Bad Reputation, Rock revealed that Wallen had co-written the track alongside Mitchell Tenpenny, Andy Albert and Jordan Schmidt. 'This is before Morgan Wallen blew up. I remember somehow I got a demo of it, I can't remember what, and I just couldn't get over the voice on it,' Rock said. 'I was like, 'Who the f—k is singing this demo?' It was Morgan Wallen.' Since then, the two artists have struck up a friendship. During Wallen's Houston show in June, he was spotted wearing a Kid Rock T-shirt while walking out alongside Drake and baseball legend Roger Clemens. Wallen's latest album, I'm the Problem, has been on a hot streak, recently scoring its 10th nonconsecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Watch Wallen's walk-out with Kid Rock on Instagram here.

‘Weapons' sticking to its guns as No. 1 at box office for second Friday
Its guns are still blazing. 'Weapons' remained No. 1 at the box office Friday, its second in theaters, taking in $7.4 million, according to The Numbers. The horror-mystery is slated to enjoy a domestic total of up to $90 million through Sunday, which would make it the 14th-highest-earning North American release of the year, as per Variety. 3 'Weapons' remained No. 1 at the box office on Friday, its second in theaters, taking in $7.4 million. ©Warner Bros/Courtesy Everett Collection 'Freakier Friday,' the highly-anticipated sequel to 2003's 'Freaky Friday' remained in the second spot, with sales of $4.5 million. Its director, Nisha Ganatra, has already spoken about the possibility of a third film. 'Freakiest Friday… What would it be? I mean, more swaps, right? Probably a six-way swap,' Ganatra told Screen Rant. The action comedy 'Nobody 2' took third, with a $3.86 million take on Friday, its opener. A sequel to 2021's 'Nobody,' it made more than its predecessor's $2.5 million opening day — the original premiered during COVID, however. 3 'Freakier Friday,' remained at the second spot, taking in $4.5 million. ©Walt Disney Co./Courtesy Everett Collection The film, which has Bob Odenkirk reprising his role as a suburban dad who moonlights as an assassin, is expected to take in $9.4 million this weekend, as per Variety. The Guardian called it 'a forgettable follow-up riddled with endless gonzo fight sequences.'

But they don't let me fly through the air,' he told People. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' moved down a notch to fourth, earning $2.4 million on its fourth Friday in theaters.

Kendrick Lamar's Streaming Smashes Return — But Which One Is More Impressive?
Kendrick Lamar is one of the top-performing rap artists in America when it comes to sales, as his fans seem much more willing to purchase his music than many other stars in the field. While sales of both his albums and singles play a large role in his continued success, streaming activity may be even more responsible for his presence on the Billboard charts. Several of Lamar's recent smashes return to streaming-only rankings in the United States, and he climbs on multiple tallies dedicated to the consumption metric. '30 for 30" with SZA is Back Two Lamar tracks find their way back to streaming-only tallies this frame. Technically, the higher-rising of the two is '30 for 30.' His tour partner SZA recruited him for the track, which reappears at No. 25 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs tally. 30 weeks into its life on the most competitive of all the streaming rankings that focus on R&B, hip-hop and rap, the cut barely makes it back as it lands in last place. 'Not Like Us' Returns to the Main Streaming Chart 'Not Like Us,' which may go down as Lamar's most famous and celebrated tune, is back on the Streaming Songs chart this week. In its sixty-first frame, the Drake diss tune reappears in last place at No. 50. While that is a much lower position than '30 for 30' manages on the R&B/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs roster, it may be more impressive that 'Not Like Us' can be found on the Streaming Songs tally. The chart isn't focused on just one or several styles, which makes it that much more competitive. Also, 'Not Like Us' is much older than '30 for 30,' so the fact that it once again ranks as one of the 50-most-played tunes of any style or language throughout the United States is quite the feat. Kendrick Lamar Owns 20% of the Streaming List 'Not Like Us' is one of two tracks by Lamar that appear on the general Streaming Songs roster, as 'Luther,' another duet with SZA, rises two spaces to No. 31. When it comes to the R&B/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs tally, however, Lamar is far more successful this time around. He fills five spaces, occupying 20% of the list. His roundup includes 'Luther' with SZA, 'Not Like Us,' 'TV Off' with Lefty Gunplay, 'All the Stars,' yet another smash with SZA, and finally '30 for 30.' Those tracks appear at Nos. 3, 10, 17, 21 and 25, respectively.
