Graham Coxon Says Blur Will Release New Album

02/13/2012
. (Gibson) Blur guitarist Graham Coxon says that fans can expect a new Blur album. However, he doesn't specify exactly when the reunited Britpoppers will begin work on a forthcoming release. In a couple weeks, Blur are being honored with the Outstanding Contribution to Music award at this year's Brit Awards.

"It's pretty nice to be getting the Brit award," Coxon told NME. "We haven't planned the rehearsals yet, but there will definitely be another Blur album."

The guitarist, currently promoting his solo disc A+E, said that the band's 2009 reunion ensured the band's future. "2009 was an amazing healing experience for us. We were really swept away with it and got a lot out of our systems," he said. "We realized how much we still had in common, that we are good friends, that we are brothers. We're always going to meet up and want to play things. We do like recording. Eventually, even if things aren't around the corner, Blur will do more recordings together. We all love each other and still like making music so that's not a bad start." more on this story
