In my opinion the band can do whatever the fuck what they want. It's all part of adapting their own style and image which they've done throughout their career anyway. I mean, this obviously isn't any 'worse' than carrying on without Richey, for example, is it?

That's my attitude. James said he wasn't really up to singing and I was shocked when he said that too. I thought he was joking! Obviously, we're all entitled to think what we want about this. If you're against guest vocalists, that doesn't make you a bad fan and those ok with it don't get a cookie for supporting the band.

The band decides what to do with their music. Regardless, this should be an interesting release since they're trying a lot of different things with it.

Yeah I think so!

haven't the foggiest who Cate le bon is. I'm reserving judgement til I hear it tho' i understand people preferring James. The vocalist IS what the majority of people identify a band with.

Don't forget this is going to be an album with 20-30 songs so having the odd track with a different vocalist isn't a disaster. I really like ...Tiger Bay with ol' Shirl'

Nope, incorrect assumption there. I hope it's Nicky trolling, as that would amuse me. But still, the last few pages was quite the overreaction. Who knows, it could be an amazing song.

absolutely, and those who don't like James's voice ..they do exist... might love it

Okay maybe I was a bit too angry over it without much rhyme or reason, I still think it'd be a bad idea but y'know lets see how it turns out, could be great could be shite.
