New Blur album to be out in January?

According to Damon Albarn, the new Blur album will definitely be out in January. In an interview with MTV on Saturday, Damon said the band is currently finishing off the record with producers like The Neptunes and Norman Cook. He also added that they are planning to put out a white label, which doesn't have their name on it, before the actual release.


Update added July 31, 2002:

Damon's remarks have caused confusion within the Blur camp, NME.com reports. A spokesperson said this afternoon that despite Damon's remarks, the album had no definite release date scheduled, and that while some producers had been approached none had been confirmed. A spokesperson for The Neptunes confirmed that the super-producer duo had been approached, but could not confirm which, if any, tracks had been completed.
