BLUR guitarist GRAHAM COXON has given fans fresh hope the band will stay together - he is planning to write a new album with frontman DAMON ALBARN.
The Britpop pioneers reformed in December (08) after a six-year break, and performed a string of gigs ending at Scotland’s T in the Park festival earlier this month (Jul09).
After the run of shows, Albarn apparently called time on the reunion by insisting a new album or more gigs would cause the internal wranglings that split the band up to "rear their head".
But Coxon is refusing to rule out recording a new Blur disc - if it takes the group’s music in a new direction.
He tells rock magazine NME, "I’m up for it, up for doing another one - it’d be a really interesting thing to do. I don’t want it to be (Blur’s 1993 album) Modern Life Is Rubbish or nostalgic b****cks. I want it to be a development… There’s nothing saying there’s a great big ‘No’. My gut feeling is, ‘Why not?’"
