Thank the Magistrates for getting Blur back together

Damon has been sprinkling his fairy dust on the Magistrates debut material, making sure it will be worth listening to. According to My Park Magazine, the band loves him, but find it difficult to please him. No shit, Sherlock. Your working with one of the most experienced men in the music business, hes not just gonna settle for a little poppy tune. You have to blow him out of the water, and you will have learned sooooo much after working with him, I guarantee.

But so anyways, guitarist Mark Brandon said: "We were in a room and Damon was dancing around just enjoying the music and just playing.

"He's a harsh guy. It was really inspiring to be around the guy, his working ethic is just unbelievable. He's a 100 per cent interested in making music - and that is really inspiring to be around.

"I remember when we were in the studio - the first time when he was saying, 'Yeah I'm thinking about calling the guys up'.

"Then literally a week later we were recording a song and he was like: 'Guess who I was with last night?' And I was like, 'Who's that?' He said that Graham Coxon had popped by and they had a late night."

Lead singer Paul Usher added: "I think the reason he got Blur back together honestly was because he spent some time with us and enjoyed the idea of being in a band again.

"We planted the seed in his head and he was like, 'Yeah you're right, that's a good idea'."


Now we HAVE to go buy their album... :P
