Mais non rassurez vous, il possède toujours sa célibrissime demeure de Camden, riche en pèlerinages de toutes sortes...
En fait il à annoncé lui même sur son blog, il s'est fait jeter de chez EMI...On peux trouver ça triste sur le principe, mais vu la politique maison affichée depuis quelques temps, on est pas très étonné, et puis c'est pas les labels indies qui manquent, au pire ils pourra toujours passé un coup de fil à Thom Yorke...Tout ça pour dire que la sortie de l'objet va attendre encore quelques temps...
Enfin il à un vieux pote qui à un label du coté de Portobello...

Graham coxon a écrit :i have some news...news that i am still getting my head around. it makes me sad and excited at the same time, feel betrayed but in a way..but..baaahh..freeeeee i tell you...but...its odd...
for 2 days i have walked and listened to my new record and listened to the VU and abba and i have heard scouting for girls on the radio..seen ads for the pidgeon detectives on telly...and this mixed with my mixed feelings makes me feel wooooozy....sick and to be honest.. i have expected it but was told it would never happennn ...tho..i knew one day it would...
EMI are not releasing my next LP. they have said that they are only going to release big artists....i am kind of angry but i am glad too...but...i have been dropped.
i only wish i could say i thought EMI had done a good job of my career up to this point then maybe it wouldnt be so difficult to take.. but i feel like they messed the last 2 albums up rather badly...along with radio 1 who have refused to play anything from my laast 2 albums...preferring to play bands that are more "appropriate" such as razorlight..
so..better another devil it is..
i trust my manager, he is rather progressive.. he has alot of ideas and i know in this day and age we dont really neeeeed EMI and the like to put our records out for us...but i was a stickler for the old fashioned way...fond of the doggie that suddenly on a hot day has made a meal out of my hand ...so...i feel a little adrift...but my manager has ideas...we meet next weeek... .. he told me in a most positive way..he didnt use the words" youre dropped" i did...cus thats what it means.
but good news is that EMI are paying for the album and giving it to me basically...so..its my property...it might be my most beautiful possession...
its made a lot of thoughts fly thru my head..its like a frikkin magicians sleeeve with doves shooting out like a devil's arse release.
anyway.. thought i'd better tell you..it means the LP wont be released for a good while...which pisses me off somewhat...but it means i am not under pressure...can make art and not worry about **nty accountants tellin me what a record should sound like or loook like..
roll on....
