I think there will eventually be another studio record – it’s not that unusual these days for the biggest bands to take five or six years between albums.

I’m loathe to reopen this debate as we’ve already had it on a number of occasions, too many really, and I thought the overwhelming consensus (bar two members) was that people were perfectly happy with the way […]
