Ash’s Tim Wheeler likes albums again
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 18 October 2011
Four years after Ash announced that ‘Twilight Of The Innocents’ would be their last ever album, frontman Tim Wheeler has been reconsidering his feelings towards the full-length format.
The band, whose greatest hits compilation is out this week, have otherwise only released their singles-only series, ‘A-Z’, since 2007. In these foggier financial climes, however, Tim has told 6music that albums represent “the best and most economic medium”, while also admitting the singles campaign had proved “quite challenging”.
So, given that Charlotte Hatherley has reunited with the band for their ‘Free All Angels’ anniversary tour this week, does this mean there’s a new Ash LP in the offing? Tim doesn’t rule one out. “I’d totally consider it”, he says. “I’ve no idea really if it will happen but I think it would be interesting. I think we’ll just see how we get on and see what it’s like”.
