Is this down to the record company or the band?

[wireobsessed]

Just wondering if this is purely an economic venture and is down to the record company after the success of the 02 gig and wanting to cash in or if the band really wanted to do this?

Considering all the hype abt no encores, taking 2 years off, re-imagining the band and all the "stuff " that has been said; including James and his "I don't want to sing anymore, I'm bored of my voice" I wondered how much the band actually want to do this. I'm really surprised it's happening. I know they constantly contradict themselves but I thought the whole 2 years off was a serious plan on their part.

What do you think?
