Damon Albarn to make solo album

May 05, 2012
Blur frontman Damon Albarn claimed that he has started the work on his first solo album. Singer did not reveal any details about it, only stating that upcoming records will be heavily based on synthesizers sound.

Gorillaz creator claimed: "This week we're doing some kind of record under my name. I suppose you could call it a solo record, but I don't like that word. It sounds very lonely - solo. I don't really want to be solo in my life. But yeah, I'm making another record".

Last week Damon Albarn denied reports that the Blur's members will stop working together after this summer. Earlier singer claimed that band's upcoming gig at Hyde Park would be the best opportunity to finish their careers. However, according to his words, it does not mean they are actually going to do that.

"I don't know how we'll feel when we play Hyde Park. Some days I feel one way and other days I feel the other. If you don't see something as a career but as an important part of your life, you don't know how you're going to feel about it. We want to put on a great performance but nothing's been said between us about the beginning or the end", said he.
