Blur 'Definitely' Going To Record New Album, Says Guitarist Graham Coxon

Brit-pop kings Blur will ‘definitely’ be recording a new record at some point, if guitarist Graham Coxon is to be believed.

Although he’s only recently release his latest solo album ‘A+E’ earlier this year, Coxon has reassured Blur fans that a new album will definitely be put out in the near future – after they’ve started rehearsing for their performance at this year’s BRIT Awards – where they’ll be picking up the ‘Outstanding Contribution to Music Award’.

Speaking to the Daily Record, Coxon revealed: “It’s pretty nice to be getting the Brit award. We haven’t planned the rehearsals yet, but there will definitely be another Blur album. [The reunion in] 2009 was an amazing healing experience for us. We were really swept away with it and got a lot out of our systems. We realised 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.”

“I’ve been to the Brits only two or three times. I remember the one where Blur won a lot of Brits and we were, unfortunately, next to the Oasis table. I was getting a lot of gyp from Liam Gallagher. It was all very worrying but it was an amazing night.

“I felt slightly guilty about winning them all. That’s just how I am. I should just have enjoyed it. But I was worried that people would think we were spoilt brats. This time, sod it, I’m just going to lap it up I think.”

Blur UK & Ireland Tour Dates are as follows:

Tue February 21st 2012 - The O2 Arena, London
