Blur have spoke about the possibility of recording new material together in this week’s issue of NME.
The Damon Albarn-led group will reunite for the 2012 Brit Awards at London’s O2 arena next month, but are thinking about recording again too.
“If Blur record anything that’s gonna be taken seriously by us four,” Coxon says tells NME. “It can’t just be a casual thing.”
But bandmate and bassist Alex James adds: “Is there such a thing as an album?” he asks. “And does music have to come 12 tracks at a time?”
You can read the full article in the 14th January cover-date issue of NME, out now.
