While we’d sure love it if Blur plotted an official LP follow-up to 2003’s Think Tank, let’s not get greedy people: Damon Albarn is still busy promoting the Gorillaz’s new star-studded album, Plastic Beach, and, well, new songs are “definitely” on the way…
“I’m definitely going to do a few more of those seven-inches,” Albarn told NME (via Drowned in Sound), referring to their “Fool’s Day” single. “I love the no pressure aspect.” (As Ryan Adams would say (and did recently), “taking my time on things is the new release everything.”)
Albarn emphasized, however, “I don’t want anyone to think there’s an album coming soon, it’s not possible, but we’ve got songs!” As primarily a fan of the band’s classic singles, that’s quite the consolation prize, I’d say.
