BLUR INDUCING CHEMICALS

Tom and Ed to team up with Damon and co?

The Chemical Brothers have been approached by Blur to work on the band’s forthcoming album. Tom and Ed told Rolling Stone that they are considering producing some tracks for the record.

“They want us to listen to some music they're making with the possibility of producing or co-producing with them,” Ed Simons told the magazine.

The Duo will shortly be back into the studio to work on the follow up to their recent album Come With Us.

Although the group have collaborated with a host of well-known artists in the past, including Noel Gallagher, New Order and the Verve, they are considering using unknown vocalists for the new album.

“I think it'd be great to find someone, to get someone strange out of Rough Trade Records and pursue it from there rather than work with these big iconic figures,” Ed said. “I loved working with Richard Ashcroft, Noel Gallagher and Bernard Sumner, but it'd just be cool to do someone people have never heard of.”

Blur are my favourite band of all time but i'm not sure i'm gonna like this new direction cos Fatboy Slim is suposed to be producing the album as well.
