The Cribs Announce New Album And Tour
The band will release their fifth album - called In The Belly of The Brazen Bull - in May, without Johnny Marr....
Marr posted a comment online saying, "Touring and recording with Ryan, Gary and Ross has been fantastic and Ignore The Ignorant is something I'm really proud of. We ended up doing much more than we originally set out to, and I've made three good friends."
The Cribs accepted his decision with grace, describing it as an "exciting phase for everyone".
