The new album will be released on October 27th 2008 in the UK and October 28th in the US, the release will be preceded by the stunning new single ‘Take Back The City’ released in the UK on October 13th.
As previously reported the album was recorded through Summer 2008 in Hansa Studios in Berlin and Grouse Lodge deep in the Irish countryside with producer Garret ‘Jacknife’ Lee.
Speaking of the new album, Gary told SP.com "I'm so proud of this record. Everybody played out of their skin. Garret (Jacknife Lee) continued his progression from maverick genius to one of the best producers in the world. Musically, lyrically and sonically the best record we've made."

the title of the fifth album
Hello everyone
Well, in this world of instant coffee, news, messaging and everything else it was bound to happen.
In an interview with the Belfast Telegraph we let slip the working title of the album then said not to print it until we had finalised it with each other (and put it on this very site). Those words were not heeded and they printed it anyway.
We’re sorry you didn’t hear it from us first but the album is indeed called ‘a hundred million suns’.
We will endeavour to make you guys the first to hear about everything else. It’s becoming increasingly hard but we’ll do our best.
Lots of apologetic love to you all. Gary.x
