Gilles Peterson is the host of Gilles Peterson Wordwide on BBC Radio 1, at the time of the tweet he was scheduled to do show with Thom Yorke on the 29th of November. He did not respond to Mew’s message.

You can listen to the show on BBC iPlayer Here or just check out the playlist which featured a previously unreleased Jamie xx remix of Bloom that didn’t make the cut for TKOL-1234567.

Mew’s tends to refer to any kind of material in terms of food and in the past has urged fans at the beginning of a episode of The Most Gigantic Lying Mouth of All Time to ‘Eat’ what was to come (So sit back, relax, and eat. Eat. Eat.).

In this case he’s searching for Stanley Donwood (Twain) and Thom Yorke (Wildwood) who both have twitter accounts at @Stanleydonwood and @ThomYorke respectively. He ends up resorting to Facebook in his search where he registered on the 4th of March 2011.

Household Worms is the title of the book in question.

Stanley talks about this on his blog on the 22nd of November 2011…

In other news, Household Worms has come back from the printers, as you can see above. I’m very fucking pleased with it, and am enjoying this sense of acheivement whilst it lasts. Before it fades into the inevitable ennui. So yes, my new book! It will be available from the shop on this site, which you can get to by simply clicking that word right above here that says ‘SHOP’. And also from actual bookshops. Even, possibly, Amazon too. Happy happy, joy joy etc.

..and gives the following details of what the book contains in his shop:

Forty-one stories of varying lengths and levels of cheerfulness from the failing brain of Stanley Donwood. Ideal as a Zmas stocking filler for the slightly deranged. The same size as old fashioned Penguin books, this sumptuous paperback has 144 pages and an embossed cover featuring a detail from one of Mr Donwood’s linocuts, as well as a frontispiece and an endispiece (?) by Zachariah Twain.

Zachariah Twain is a alias Thom Yorke used for The King of Limbs replacing the earlier as Dr. Tchock.
