Radiohead

Band have written new songs for Chuck Palahniuk's forthcoming movie

Radiohead have written the score for forthcoming film 'Choke' – a movie based on a book of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk, who wrote 'Fight Club'.

The Oxford band wrote a song for the final credit sequence of the film, which will be released in November, then agreed to score the rest of the film after seeing a working version of it.

Palahniuk told BBC 6music that the film's director, Clark Gregg, asked Radiohead to get involved because he knew that the writer had been listening to the band's classic 1992 single 'Creep' repeatedly while writing 'Choke'.

A final release date for the film and soundtrack is yet to be announced.
