Verve Threaten To Withhold Next Album

The Verve have joined an increasing number of artists - including the like of Robbie Williams, Coldplay and Paul McCartney - in a protest against their record label EMI.

The newly reunited band is now threatening to withhold their next album until they receive assurances about the record label’s financial security.

The Verve were due to deliver their long-awaited follow-up to 1997’s 'Urban Hymns' in June. A question mark now looms over whether this release date still stands.

Verve Re-Release Best Of

The Verve are planning to re-release their best of album with a bonus DVD.

This Is Music: The Singles 92-98 was originally released in 2004, but will now feature an extra disc of promotional videos.

The album features unreleased tracks 'This Could Be My Moment' and 'Monte Carlo', along with hits 'Lucky Man', 'The Drugs Don't Work' and 'Bitter Sweet Symphony'.

The band, who have just finished a small venue reunion tour, are currently preparing for a series UK arena gigs this December.
