Mark Pritchard and Thom Yorke Unite for New Single, ‘Back in the Game’

Thom Yorke has once again teamed up with electronic musician and producer Mark Pritchard for a new single, 'Back in the Game'.

The track has also been a staple of Yorke’s recent live sets, with the musician having debuted the song in Christchurch, New Zealand in October as part of his Everything solo tour and playing it at every show since. In a statement, Zawada explained that an early demo of the track saw him envision a cocky, strutting John Travolta in the final scene of Staying Alive, albeit with a more sinister approach. “Slowly a version of that visual arose around a character wearing a kind of giant parade head with a fixed expression of mania stuck on their face, such that you couldn’t tell if their endless march was one of aggression or celebration,” Zawada explained.
