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.

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.

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.
