Radiohead to David Cameron: 'Use our music and we'll sue the living sh*t out of you'

Experimental rockers Radiohead have vowed that if the UK's Prime Minister, David Cameron, uses their music without permission for the Conservative election campaign they will take legal action.

Speaking to Drowned In Sound, the band's frontman Thom Yorke explained that he can't imagine that happening, but if it does he is prepared to "sue" him:

"I can't say I love the idea of a banker liking our music, or David Cameron. But I also equally think, who cares? As long as he doesn't use it for his election campaigns, I don't care. I'd sue the living sh*t out of him if he did. I can't believe he'd like [Radiohead album] King of Limbs much."

On February 25, 'Amok' by Atoms for Peace will be released which is the first album Yorke has worked on with a band other than Radiohead and talking about the project, he added:

"It's not like The Eraser [his 2006 solo album]. But it's not a band album either. It doesn't sound like a band playing ... We wanted to go into the song realm, because it felt good to do that. If it were up to me, every track would be 10 minutes long."
