GRAHAM COXON ON NEW BLUR ALBUM

Remember when news broke that Blur was recording a new album and we got all excited?! And the news came directly from the moth of Graham Coxon. And now the same lips that gave us hope are now telling us to forget it and has stated that there will not be another Blur album in the near future. WHAAAAAA!

The guitarist made the revelation in a conversation with a fan on Twitter earlier today (Nov 26). Though far from a definitive statement on the future of the band, Coxon gives short shrift to the idea of releasing another album with Damon Albarn, Alex James and Dave Rowntree. Asked if there is a new Blur album coming out and, if so, when? Coxon replied by simply saying "No". Scroll down the page to see the tweet.

Blur played a huge show in London's Hyde Park earlier this year and released new songs 'Under The Westway' and 'The Puritan', sparking rumours that the band may record a full album worth of material for release in 2013. The group also have a number of European tour dates booked including shows at Primavera in Spain and Rock Werchter in Belgium.
