good news from Blur

For a big Blur fan like me, this is amazing to read (from spin.com):

It's not that Damon Albarn hasn't enjoyed being two-dimensional for a while, but the Blur singer is ready to step into the spotlight himself for a bit.

Even though he has been otherwise occupied with Gorillaz, Albarn made time to get Blur back together to record a follow up to 2003's Think Tank. The recording process is nowhere near finished, but bassist Alex James told XFM he expects the band will get back together towards the end of the year to continue working on the album.

"We all got together before Christmas. Damon, Dave [Rowntree] and I were making the most nasty, dirty, filthy rock music I think we've ever made," James said. "Foo Fighters are gonna wet their pants when they hear it."

Just thought some of you would like to know...

    That's good news, but I'm not too impressed by the fact Foo Fighters will wet their pants.

    This is good. Last when I heard from them, they were all sueing each other and that Think Tank was probably going to be thier coda.

    Damon Albarn wanting the spotlight, big surprise eh. That's cool news, I'd like to see them live again they put on such a fun show. I saw them at a bar in Kitchener like 8 yrs ago and then we met them at the Tim's down the road, they we're really nice.
