 Blur bassist Alex james has confirmed that the band are regrouping to work on a new album, the first since 2003's 'Think Tank'.
The band will be without guitarist Graham Coxon, who is still on hiatus working on his solo projects, but James has confirmed that Daman Albarn has reformed his band for another album after his massive worldwide success with Gorillaz.
James told XFM: "We all got together before Christmas. Damon, Dave (Rowntree, drummer) and I and were making the most nasty, dirty, filthy rock music I think we've ever made...it was great."
He added: "And then Damon's been making his records, I've been busy with (new band) Wigwam and Dave's got this multi-media empire going on, but I think there's plans to reconvene really soon, I think probably towards the end of the year."
James also alluded to the new album being a bit louder and more aggressive than previous releases:
"It seems to be going like that. I mean, you never know what a record's gonna sound like till you've finished recording it, but it was sounding that way.
"Foo Fighters are gonna wet their pants when they hear it."
